DNV GL, the independent energy expert and assurance provider, 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, and continuing on Culzean and Gryphon.
The company has built and maintained a strong relationship 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.”
