Contractors Unlimited
Snapshot
Oil and Gas UK is a representative body for the UK offshore oil and gas industry with offices in Aberdeen and London. It is a not-for-profit organisation, established in April 2007 on the foundations of the UK Offshore Operators Association (UKOOA) and incorporating the contractor companies who were members of the now disbanded Industry Leadership Team.
Membership is open to all companies active in the UK continental shelf, from super majors to large contractor businesses and from independent oil companies to SMEs working in the supply chain.
Oil and Gas UK's aim is to strengthen the long-term health of the offshore oil and gas industry in the United Kingdom by working closely with companies across the entire sector, governments and all other stakeholders to address the issues that affect your business.
This is done by:
- raising the profile of the UK offshore oil and gas industry, one of the country's greatest economic successes in modern times
- promoting open dialogue within and across all sectors of the industry on topics that influence your activities, including technical, fiscal, safety, environmental and skills issues, and brokering solutions
- developing and delivering industry-wide initiatives and programmes
- engaging with governments and other external organisations with a stake in the industry's future
