HSEQ AND SUSTAINABILITY
Balmoral acknowledges the importance of health and safety and is committed to providing a safe and healthy working environment for its employees, subcontractors and visitors, on or off-site.
Balmoral is fully compliant with environmental regulations and recognised industry standards and continually seeks to adopt solutions to protect the natural world.
The company acknowledges that environmental factors form an integral part of its business responsibilities and enable the company to demonstrate an ethical, effective and sustainable approach to all operations.
It is also recognised that provision must be made to accommodate the needs of future generations. To do this, Balmoral continually evolves its processes and services, obtains optimum return on resources and is proactive and systematic in appraising environmental performance.
As a result, the company’s environmental obligations are a fundamental part of its culture and the basis of the formation of the Sustainability Training and Action Group (STAG).
The company operates a management system that is certified to ISO 45001.
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT
Balmoral’s integrated management system demands that all projects are delivered without environmental incident and with minimal environmental impact. This is achieved by the application of best available techniques including a review of the risks created by manufacturing operations and implementation of control measures to eliminate or minimise the risks identified.
All waste is assessed for environmental impact prior to disposal and only Scottish Environmental Protection Agency (SEPA) recognised disposal agents are used for waste removal. Balmoral ensures that all waste is traceable to site of disposal.
All of the above is taken into consideration when major production projects are being planned. The company’s dedicated HSEQ personnel are closely involved with all planning operations and advice is provided during the early stages of preparation as well as monitoring of projects on a continuous basis.
Client liaison is provided regularly by the HSEQ team as an integral and increasingly important part of any production project.
QUALITY ASSURANCE
Balmoral’s stated aim is to become the first choice supplier in its sector and the company is committed to providing products and services that exceed customer expectations.
A key objective is the implementation and continuous improvement of a Quality Management System that is certified to ISO 45001:2018 | ISO 9001:2015 and in adherence to the American Petroleum Institute's specification for marine drilling riser equipment: API 16F.
API 17L
In March 2013 the American Petroleum Institute (API) released specifications 17L1 for flexible pipe ancillary equipment and 17L2 recommended practice for flexible pipe ancillary equipment.
Balmoral Offshore Engineering products including flexible riser and umbilical buoyancy and clamping system, bend stiffeners, bend restrictors, Duraguard HD™ ballast modules, clamps and I/J-tube seals are designed and manufactured in accordance with API 17L standards.
