Energy Sector

Over the last 40 years the North Sea has provided a rich source of oil and gas and also an opportunity for the UK energy industry to develop first-class products, services and expertise.

UK companies now lead the way in many areas of finding, developing and extracting oil and gas, as well as managing installations in the exporting industry.

According to HSE’s Offshore Division’s (OSD) 2011 Business Plan, the priority focuses for the Oil & Gas industry are

  • Loss of workforce:  How is the knowledge about different processes being captured correctly, an ageing workforce means that many people could retire and vast amounts of information will be lost
  • Ownership:  A variety of business models are now being used across the United Kingdom Continental Shelf (UKCS), for example, contracting out management and operations which can involve complex financial and ownership arrangements
  • Asset integrity:  The maturing and ageing nature of offshore installations in the UKCS mean considerable challenges to the delivery of high standards of health and safety. How are you going to ensure that older offshore installations are compliant with current safety regulations

Oil and Gas is a global commodity and as such there are a number of different factors that need to be considered when working in this sector.

Whether you are looking to:

  • identify operational risks
  • regulate internal audits
  • improve your processes
  • remain compliant
