Oil and Gas

As every asset and site in the oil and gas industry is unique, the closure of on and offshore oil and gas facilities requires proactive planning to create a robust program that ensures minimal disruption and the right methodology.

For effective decommissioning, decontamination, deconstruction and remediation, each program requires a tailored approach driven by:

Knowledge and expertise from international, world leading teams, and real scenarios.
International projects and experience for superior knowledge and applications.
Unmatched fleet and equipment to deliver maximum efficiency, flexibility and safety.

Liberty Industrial offers a comprehensive range of international capabilities for on and offshore decommissioning in Europe and Asia Pacific.

Our Role in Offshore Decommissioning

At Liberty Industrial, we specialise in the onshore dismantling, cleaning, and processing of recovered offshore infrastructure, including topsides, jackets, flowlines, and subsea assets. While the physical plug and abandonment of subsea wells typically occurs offshore, our scope begins where offshore assets are transported back to shore for decontamination, recovery, and recycling.

We are often involved in early engagement and conceptual planning, supporting operators with feasibility studies, site surveys, and cost modelling. Our input helps determine the most efficient way to manage offshore-to-onshore transitions, particularly when it comes to cleaning, waste management, and regulatory compliance.

Offshore decommissioning is governed by a complex web of international, national, and state-level regulations. From safety protocols to environmental clearance, Liberty Industrial brings deep expertise in navigating these requirements, including:

Compliance with NOPSEMA (National Offshore Petroleum Safety and Environmental Management Authority)
Environmental remediation aligned with NPTEA and state-based legislation
Adherence to hazardous materials protocols and international environmental standards

Our environmental and regulatory expertise is a key differentiator, especially in projects requiring sensitive waste management, recycling, and reporting.
