In April, the company Bureau Veritas announced that it will be responsible for the internal audits of the Brazilian company 3R Petroleum, which operates in the oil and gas energy sector. The goal of this agreement is to assess whether 3R’s operations are fully in accordance with the technical guidelines set by the National Petroleum Agency.
From this analysis, it will be possible to develop strategies to ensure risk prevention at oil platforms. In addition, assessments of the potential impact on the safety of professionals, the environment, and the community must be conducted.
The Director of Marine and Offshore at Bureau Veritas, Márcio Pereira, mentions that Bureau Veritas has over 190 years of experience in the market and that the company has already helped thousands of other companies to develop and expand their businesses.

The investigation will cover both onshore and offshore facilities of 3R, and the company’s internal safety standards should also be taken into account.
The evaluation process should be carried out by a team specialized in oil and gas sector legislation, in addition to marine and land operations. It should include the audit planning, technical visits to the facilities, interviews, and the preparation of a report with the evaluation results and suggestions for improvements to be made.
