BP awards Kent a five-year global commissioning framework agreement

This strategic approach will embed a commissioning readiness culture, as well as provide oversight and assurance of commissioning delivery through the utilisation of proven technology. The framework agreement extends to the end of 2028, with a possible extension. The services will be executed by Kent’s CCS Center of Excellence (CoE) and regional operations.

Kent’s experience in end-to-end carbon capture and storage (CCS) services were key in being awarded a framework agreement. Kent’s approach of integrating commissioning throughout all project stages ensures certainty on quality, cost and schedule, leading to optimised operational uptime and ensuring project start-ups that are flawless.

Commenting on the award, Tush Doshi, Chief Operating Officer at Kent, said: "We are proud to strengthen our longstanding relationship with BP. This framework agreement is a testament to our team’s world-class approach and ability to deliver results across the value chain. We look forward to working with BP to achieve best-in-class commissioning performance.”

John Kennedy, VP Project Management at BP, further commented: “Transforming our approach to commissioning delivery is a key factor in bp’s mission to continuously improve project delivery. This agreement is an enabler to that mission, leveraging Kent’s CCS capability throughout the lifecycle of projects, and building on a long-term relationship that has contributed to successful delivery across our global portfolio, including projects in Azerbaijan, Egypt and Trinidad.”
