BMT Cordah Advises on 27th Licensing Round

BMT Cordah reported Tuesday that it has recently advised several major companies in applications for the latest UK oil and gas licensing round.

BMT Cordah – a subsidiary of maritime, environmental and engineering consultancy BMT Group – said it provided environmental support for UK Continental Shelf operators, including Endeavour Energy UK, bidding for licenses in the UK's 27th Offshore Oil and Gas Licensing round. This included the preparation of screening assessment, which are required to summarize the sensitivities and potential environmental impacts of seismic and exploration drilling activities in license areas the firms were interested in.

To enable the UK Government’s Department for Energy and Climate Change to assess environmental competence, BMT assisted customers with their submission under four key environmental areas: Pollution Liability; Environmental Regulations and Organisation; Legislative Compliance and Environmental Sensitivities and Issues.

BMT Cordah Managing Director Norman Di Perno commented in a statement:

"A comprehensive understanding of the relevant environmental regulations, directives and international agreements is key when supporting our customers through this detailed application process."
