Downstream Oil & Gas

Downstream oil and gas companies face ever increasing pressure to reduce costs, increase margins and revenues, and improve productivity. Given local and global competition for their products plus inability to impact feedstock prices, margins constantly fluctuate and are extremely difficult to manage.

As with upstream, availability and reliability of equipment remain key drivers. This, in turn, demands best-in-class maintenance practices during normal operations and turnarounds.

Refineries that process a variety of crudes need to deploy best-in-class operational practices to reduce off-quality product during changeovers. Refiners and petrochemical companies need to deliver on-spec products whilst avoiding quality giveaway.

We work with both refiners and petrochemical producers to analyse current performance in production, maintenance management, laboratory, turnaround, procurement, sales, warehousing and other areas of support, and identify opportunities to develop new solutions and ways of working that not only improve margins but also reduce risk to health, safety and environment (HSE).

Here’s a deeper look at what we can bring to your business.
