ARCADIS (EURONEXT: ARCAD), the leading pure play global engineering and consultancy firm, today announced that it has been selected for two major global frameworks by BP, one of the world's leading international oil and gas companies, worth a combined fee income of up to £24m over the duration of the contract.
The first framework is a Managed Service Agreement which will see ARCADIS providing environmental services for BP incorporating auditing, remediation services, environmental permitting, water and waste management and impact assessment.
The second framework is also a Managed Service Agreement and includes services for oil spill response planning, modeling and crisis management planning. Both frameworks are for three years and will cover 44 countries, excluding North America.
Mark Howard, Oil & Gas Sector Upstream Leader at ARCADIS, said: "We are delighted to have been appointed to these two frameworks. Environmental assurance and crisis preparedness are two of the most important operational matters facing oil and gas companies, and are issues that BP is leading the industry in taking a proactive response to. It is testament to our market leading technical expertise, built on years of experience, in both environmental services and operational risk assessment that we are able to provide the quality and breadth of service that BP needs across the globe."
ARCADIS' Environment, Safety and Risk Management team is a global leader in developing technical and financial approaches that help some of the world's leading companies optimize their business performance by reducing risk whilst protecting people and the environment. The growth in this sector has been driven by environmental regulation and the requirement for organizations to ensure they are fully aware of the impact of their operations.
