Halcrow's aim in providing services to the oil & gas industry is to bring together Halcrow's experience in civil engineering and environment with specialist skills in infrastructure development.
Halcrow has a wealth of international experience and reputation for handling environmental issues that encompass diverse and rapidly advancing industrial sectors. We are committed to the process of continuous improvement in the management of the environmental impact of what we do and to our longer-term goal of developing a sustainable business.
At Halcrow, we work in partnership with others to promote environmental care, increase understanding of environmental issues and disseminate good practice.
We integrate civil and infrastructure expertise with specialist environmental skills, bringing maximum benefits to every stage of a project that favours economic growth in an environmentally friendly manner. Much of our work is repeat work with existing clients, who are satisfied with our approach. We are also keen to share our experience with others, in new and exciting projects.
A key part of our approach is partnership. We undertake commissions to ensure that the customer gets best value for money. This involves:
- careful integration of the project programme with national, regional and local requirements;
- ensuring that it is the customer’s message we respond to, and that we blend our own international experience with the specific national requirements of the commission, and
- ensuring that the host nation obtains maximum benefit from project resources, and that where possible, national or local capacity building, training and institutional development is central to project activities.
