These services include compliance audits to ensure adherence to regulatory, industry and company standards; and engineering audits to assess equipment and systems for safety and functionality and skills audits to ensure workforce capability and resilience.
We provide inspection services for electrical installations, electrical equipment and hazardous environments. These services are delivered for critical infrastructure across the oil & gas, utility, generation and maritime industries.
Hazardous area inspections are required for environments where flammable gases, vapors, dust, or fibers may be present and could ignite, leading to potential explosions or fires.
Performed on site, our experienced professionals conduct a comprehensive evaluation of potential hazards and risks to ensure safety and compliance with regulations and standards such as ATEX, IECEx. Some common components of an onsite hazardous assessment include:
The team inspects the areas with atmospheric hazards to identify potential hazards, such as chemical storage, machinery, electrical systems, and other equipment.
Review of documents related to process safety procedures, area classification drawings, certifications or listings, and any relevant permits or licenses.
Identifies and categorizes the Ex equipment in the material groups, zones or divisions, ignition temperatures, and if the items are within the certifications, standards or codes and regulatory compliance.
The assessment team evaluates the level of risk associated with each identified hazard. This often involves considering the likelihood and severity of potential incidents.
A detailed report is typically generated, summarizing the findings of the inspection and provides recommendations for mitigating hazards, improving safety and operation compliance.
Our electrical engineering teams undertake inspections of low, medium and high voltage installations during construction, commissioning, and for regular operations.
Inspections are undertaken in accordance with relevant country and regional standards as well as country and project specific requirements.
Auditing services for compliance with regulatory or internal processes, systems audits for continuous improvement and engineering audits to evaluate maintenance and work procedures, performed by industry Subject Matter Experts. Our reports provide a gap analysis and identify areas for improvement and recommendations.
