The mitigation methodologies used by BMT are designed to manage risk aligned with ALARP principles in order to achieve safe and high-performance designs and operations.
BMT provides support to Oil and Gas safety engineering for both onshore and offshore activities. Early on in the development lifecycle, we identify hazards starting from the feasibility and design stages and can continue evaluating associated risks related to the operation of facilities.
Safety engineers manage risk by evaluating failure probability and severity in order to eliminate or reduce risk to acceptable levels.
This requires the sound analysis of number of variables that could lead to a hazardous event, including mechanical failure, environmental effects and human error; as well as the use of proven methods to ensure a consistent and reliable way of reaching safety logic.

Reliability Assessment
Offshore, we work with suppliers in the Oil & Gas sector for the provision of reliability assessments, design consultancy and design audits for subsea and topside components and systems.
We support our customers using a comprehensive range of techniques including reliability, availability and maintainability predictions, failure mode and effects analysis and fault tree analysis.
Technology Qualification
Technology qualification is the process of providing the evidence that a technology will function within specific limits, with an acceptable level of confidence. BMT is able to assist customers in achieving world-class standards in technology qualification and deployment.
We integrate technology qualification into the business process of our customers, delivering tools and processes to enable project managers to effectively manage the risks associated with introducing, enabling or enhancing technologies.
