Services

What we deliver

We support oil and gas assets from first appraisal to late life. Our petroleum engineers turn reservoir, well and facility data into development plans that operators and partners can approve and fund.

At the concept stage, we compare development options side by side: the number and type of wells, the production profile, the facilities needed to handle it and the cost of each option. Every option is tested against price and recovery sensitivities, so the decision holds up when conditions change.

Once an asset is producing, we stay with it. We track well performance, plan interventions and workovers, and look for the changes that add barrels or cut operating cost without adding risk to people or equipment.

Every study ends in clear technical reporting: assumptions, options, costs and a recommendation, written for engineers and management alike. Where partners or regulators need to approve a plan, we prepare the supporting documents and join the review meetings.

Who does the work

Petroleum engineers lead the work, supported by our reservoir, drilling and production specialists. On larger studies we add process and HSE engineers so the plan holds up from the reservoir to the export line.

• Experience with industry production and reservoir software
• Well control certification for well-site roles
• Offshore survival and medical certificates for offshore work

Exact requirements depend on the country, the client and the role.

What we deliver

We plan and supervise drilling campaigns onshore and offshore. Our engineers write the well design and drilling programme, then follow it on the rig from spud to completion.

Planning starts with offset wells and the geology. We design the casing scheme, choose drilling fluids, bits and bottom-hole assemblies, plan cementing and well control, and write the contingency plans for problems such as losses, stuck pipe and shallow gas.

On site, our supervisors manage the day-to-day operation: daily plans, pre-job meetings, casing and cementing jobs, and the decisions that keep the well on time, on budget and under control. They also coordinate the service companies on the rig.

Every day ends with a drilling report that shows progress, costs and any non-productive time, so the office always knows where the well stands. At the end of the well, we write the end-of-well report and the lessons that make the next well faster and safer.

Who does the work

Drilling engineers and rig-site supervisors lead the work. They run crews of our roughnecks, derrickmen and roustabouts, with mud loggers tracking the well as it goes down.

• Offshore survival, medical and H2S certificates where required

Exact requirements depend on the country, the client and the role.

What we deliver

Reservoir studies show what is in the ground and how much of it can be recovered. We build that picture from seismic, log, core and production data.

Our engineers characterise the reservoir, build static and dynamic models, and run simulations of different development and recovery schemes. We test how many wells are needed, where they should go and how the reservoir will respond to production and injection.

We estimate reserves and resources using recognised classification systems, and update them as new wells and production data come in. Well tests and production data are analysed to check the model against reality.

The result is a set of decisions you can defend: where to drill next, how to manage pressure and how to recover more from existing wells. Every study comes with a clear report and the model files your team can keep using.

What we deliver

We help operators keep wells and surface facilities producing safely and efficiently. Our production engineers watch the whole system, from the bottom of the well to the export point.

That means monitoring well performance, choosing and tuning artificial lift, and managing flow assurance risks such as wax, hydrates and scale before they block wells and flowlines.

We plan and support production operations day to day, including well tests, shutdowns and start-ups, so planned work finishes on time and production comes back quickly.

Where a facility is holding production back, we run debottlenecking studies and design the changes that release extra capacity. We also track production losses so the biggest causes get fixed first.

What we deliver

We deliver onshore and offshore pipelines from route selection to commissioning. Our engineers choose the route, size and design the line, and specify materials, coatings and crossings.

Route selection weighs the ground, rivers and roads to cross, land access, environmental limits and cost. We work with our land surveyors to map the route and set out the right-of-way before construction starts.

During construction, we supervise the spread on site: welding quality, coating, lowering-in, tie-ins and reinstatement. Our welders, NDT inspectors and crane operators can join the work as one crew.

Before handover, we manage hydrotesting, pre-commissioning and commissioning. After it, we help operators manage integrity with inspection, corrosion monitoring and repair planning.

We work across project stages, from feasibility and concept studies to front-end and detailed design, and on modifications to plants that are already running.

Safety runs through the work. We lead HAZOP and other process safety studies, and check relief and flare systems so the plant can handle upset conditions without harm to people or the environment.

On new or modified plants, we support commissioning and start-up, then help operators tune the process once it is running to improve yield, energy use and reliability.

What we deliver

We protect crews, communities and the environment on every site we work on. Our HSE engineers write the plans and risk assessments before work starts, and stay on site to make sure they are followed.

Day to day, that means running permit-to-work systems, leading inductions and toolbox talks, carrying out inspections and stopping work when it is not safe.

When something goes wrong, we investigate the root cause and report it clearly, then follow up until the actions are closed. We share lessons across sites so the same incident does not happen twice.

We also monitor environmental performance, including waste, emissions and spills, so the project stays within its permits and leaves the site in good condition.

Who does the work

HSE engineers and site safety officers lead the work. They work across all our disciplines and trades, with extra support from process engineers on process safety studies.

Exact requirements depend on the country, the client and the role.

What we deliver

Corrosion is one of the main threats to the life of pipelines, tanks and plant. We assess it, control it and help operators plan around it.

Our engineers survey assets and rank corrosion risks, so inspection and maintenance budgets go where the risk is highest.

We design cathodic protection systems, specify coatings that suit the environment and inspect them as they are applied. We then set up monitoring so changes are spotted early.

Where damage is already present, we assess integrity and remaining life, and recommend whether to repair, replace or monitor.

What we deliver

We show that the work meets the specification. Our QA/QC engineers set up the quality plans and inspection and test plans before fabrication starts.

During fabrication and construction, our inspectors witness tests, review material certificates and welding records, and raise non-conformances when something is not right.

We audit suppliers and subcontractors, so problems are found at the source rather than on site.

At the end of the job, we compile the handover and close-out dossiers that the client and certifying bodies need to accept the work.

Who does the work

Our welders and fabricators build and repair pipework, structures and equipment, in the workshop and on site. Every weld is made to a qualified procedure and the codes the project specifies.

We handle pipe and structural welding in carbon steel, stainless steel and other alloys, using the processes the job requires.

Our fabricators work from drawings to cut, fit, weld and finish spools, supports, skids and structures, checking dimensions before anything leaves the shop.

Each weld is recorded and traced, so our QA/QC and NDT teams can check it and the client receives a complete weld history at handover.

What we deliver

Safe access is the first step of most construction and maintenance work. Our scaffolders erect, alter and dismantle scaffolding for plants, platforms and building sites.

We plan access with the work teams before anything goes up, so the scaffold suits the job and does not block other work.

Every scaffold is inspected and tagged before use and after any change, and we keep a register of every scaffold on site.

Our teams support shutdowns and turnarounds where a lot of access is needed fast, and they work to the site's permit and safety rules.

What we deliver

Sometimes a project needs one experienced person, not a whole team. We place senior engineers and specialists on your project on independent contracts, for weeks or for years.

We find the right person from across our disciplines and trades, check their experience and certificates, and present them for your approval.

We handle the contract, compliance and administration: right-to-work checks, certifications, timesheets and travel. You get the expertise without the paperwork.

Each assignment has one point of contact at our office, who stays in touch with both you and the contractor until the work is done.
