DNV GL secures three-year services contract for Total’s UK assets
DNV GL has been awarded a three-year contract by Total E&P UK Ltd to provide multiple services across the full portfolio of the international operator’s oil and gas assets in the UK North Sea.
DNV GL will provide core services such as verification, classification and flag, risk advisory services and major accident hazard awareness training. These will be carried out for assets, including the Shetland Gas Plant, Elgin Franklin and Alwyn, in continuing on Culzean and Gryphon.
The company has built and maintained a strong relationship, centred on trust, with Total following the Paris-headquartered operator’s acquisition of Maersk Oil’s production assets in 2018 – for which DNV GL was the incumbent safety services provider.
Hari Vamadevan, regional director, UK & Ireland, DNV GL, said:
“As one of the largest operators in the UK, this contract award from Total is a key win for DNV GL and is a great start to the year. At a pivotal time for the oil and gas industry, our work with Total will focus on areas of safety, innovation and efficiency. We look forward to aligning with Total as the company continues its substantial investment in the drive to net zero.”
Jack Downie, head of development and innovation, UK & Ireland, DNV GL, added:
“This contract will see Total use a broad range of DNV GL’s services to enhance its operations, and support its low carbon goals. Throughout our conversations with the Total team, we see forward-looking motivation and the desire to further develop the value we add to its operations, while further strengthening the bond between our organisations.”
