Oil and gas safety and risk management consultancy GexCon has entered into a partnership with world-leading engineering consultants Arup, which is set to benefit customers of both organisations.

The two companies have signed a Memorandum of Understanding, which will allow them to work closely together to provide services in global markets, particularly in the field of fire and explosion analysis and the associated structural response.

Together the companies will be able to offer customers a more complete study with GexCon and Arup offering their own specialist expertise to the oil and gas industry.

海角吃瓜网淥ur integrated approach will reduce uncertainty and allow the removal of significant conservatisms from the design process hence leading to reduced costs of energy infrastructure within the oil and gas industry.海角吃瓜网�

GexCon provides services in identifying hazards, complex consequence modelling, mitigating risks and contributing to improving clients海角吃瓜网� safety performance. The business also develops, maintains and uses FLACS, the industry-standard software tool for explosion and fire modelling.

Arup is an independent firm of designers, planners, engineers, consultants, and technical specialists offering a broad range of professional services.
