Augean has been awarded a multi-year contract with BP to manage drilling waste, specifically focusing on processing drill cuttings from the company’s operations in the North Sea.
With an impressive track record of over 19 years without a lost time incident (LTI) offshore, Augean brings extensive experience and specialised expertise to the drilling waste management sector. Augean’s offshore containment equipment significantly reduces the risk of environmental release during operations, supported by a robust fleet of over 500 skips, ensuring service availability and reliability.
Augean's state-of-the-art EcoCentre facility in Peterhead, located at one of the UK’s primary oilfield ports, is designed to treat contaminated drill cuttings. It facilitates compliant recovery and disposal while minimising the carbon footprint associated with transporting offshore waste.
Peter Marioni, chief operating officer for Augean North-east Scotland, expressed enthusiasm about the contract, stating: “This contract is a great win for Augean and reflects our strong track record in drilling waste management. We invest heavily in both our equipment fleet and our personnel to ensure we can always meet customer demands and provide a comprehensive and reliable service, and I am delighted to bring our expertise to this contract with bp.”
