Opus Plus Ltd services

We have been at the forefront of developing ecotoxicology services that provide significant benefits for clients who require testing on offshore platforms and other environments where real-time analysis and rapid results are required. Opus are uniquely positioned to offer services to the offshore industry combining our experience in fluids characterisation, separations technologies, chemistry and ecotoxicity and our offshore staff are ready to apply their expertise to any produced water issues. Our mobile ecotoxicology service allows us to carry out testing of produced water in our clients` environment, bringing a number of advantages for those who need fast and reliable results in difficult circumstances.

Our onshore facilities offer the full extensive ecotoxicity service. As well as conducting ecotoxicity studies on produced water we can combine our test hall facilities to conduct studies to look at the impacts on produced water quality. Our facilities can be used to assess the performance of different chemical packages, separator efficiency and the effects of engineering modifications before these changes are tried offshore. We also offer chronic studies to look at the non-lethal, long-term effects of effluents on the environment. Chronic studies are often suggested so that a more detailed picture of environmental impact can be modelled.

Our unique combination of services make is an ideal partner throught the decomissioning process. Oilfield installation decommissioning requires the assessment of many potentially hazardous materials including sludges, effluents and other waste materials. A number of tests are required for the effective analysis of sludge and other decommissioning by-products. Our broad scope of expertise and wide range of testing experience means we are uniquely placed to assist our clients with decommissioning. Our expertise in engineering combined with chemistry, ecotoxicology and our knowledge of project management, impact assessment, environmental regulation and hazardous waste make us an ideal partner throughout the decommissioning process.
