Testimonials // TAQA Bratani Limited
Head of Health, Safety and Environment
TAQA Bratani is one of the fastest-growing exploration and production companies working on the UKCS, having developed its portfolio significantly since first acquiring northern North Sea interests in 2008.
TAQA has been deploying Tracker from the outset to monitor against chemical permits associated with its operating assets and drilling activity. With a typical Tracker base of around 40 personnel, TAQA uses subcontractor security features to outsource some management and data recording responsibilities to third parties.
"From day one we worked with the Tracker team to reach a point quickly where the systems were working efficiently for us," says TAQA's Head of Health, Safety and Environment Alastair Maclean. "We take advantage of the flexibility of the system to use individual elements of Tracker to best effect in support of our operations at different times. Because it is effectively modular in nature we are able to add new assets to Tracker as they are introduced to our portfolio."
The Tracker team has added extra features to the TAQA system to suit specific business requirements – for specialist chemical tracking and upload offshore, for example. "Customer service has also been a significant feature of the relationship," adds Alastair. "Queries or operational challenges have always been dealt with quickly and effectively over the years.”
"We have also been able to help shape the development of our own individual system – the Tracker team has been keen to hear our input, from a customer perspective, in terms of its practical application. That helps to ensure it is working to optimum efficiency on our behalf and remains as user-friendly as possible.”
"Via an established user forum, we have been able to contribute our thoughts on the wider strategic development of Tracker, and share experiences and best practice with other operators."
