Under the agreement, Bumi Armada will receive access to Lloyd’s Register’s risk-based inspection services and technical software, which will help to develop quantifiable risk profiles. These profiles will give critical knowledge and insight for Bumi Armada Berhad’s management team on how best to approach short and long-term CAPEX/OPEX decisions.

Dirk-Jan Schuld, Area Manager Operations for Lloyd’s Register’s Asset Integrity Services, sais: “We are delighted to be working with Bumi Armada Berhad on this initiative. The scope of work includes corrosion risk assessment and risk-based inspection expertise for the hull, topside structures, pipelines, turret, mooring system, pipework and pressure safety valves […] The work will be carried out from our Malaysia and Aberdeen offices over a period of six months.”

Karimulla Shaik, Procurement Coordinator – FPSO (OPS) at Bumi Armada Berhad, added: “It is important to us to continue on our journey to be the preferred provider of offshore production and support services which is why we chose Lloyd’s Register for this contract. They know our business and what it takes to be successful at this critical and challenging time in the market.”
