Since collaborating with SANCCOB on the opening of the South Africa operation back in 2012, the relationship continues to grow. Here we talk about SANCCOB providing an essential service in South Africa, particularly in its fight to save the critically endangered African Penguin.

Oil Spill Response’s Board of Directors recently endorsed an ambitious Five-Year Strategic Plan for Wildlife Emergency Preparedness & Response. Here's why it's an important milestone for oiled wildlife response. 

Recently, we delivered some face to face OPEP 3 training to one of our members in Aberdeen. One of our consultants shares this experience to demonstrate how face to face training can be achieved safely in a COVID-19 world. 

Adriana Handszer talks about working in complex regulatory environments.

"Recently I supported Noble Colombia in the development and socialisation of several critical documents for their first offshore exploration well in the country."

With the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic, many countries have tightened their borders and restrict non-essential cargo movement.The Global Logistics Team works closely with other internal teams to ensure that our equipment can be delivered to the client’s designated location, including having personnel on Base to conduct pre-dispatch load checks and coordinating Dangerous Goods paperwork.

Is remote training the way forward? Remote training has considerable benefit to delegates such as time and cost savings and is also a more environmentally sustainable option reducing carbon footprint.

But how could we deliver the IMO recognised courses of up to 40 hours of learning, including practical deployments?...

Although this period has been testing on everyone, having remote experiences from different viewpoints enables us to explore and further improve our service delivery. Learning what pitfalls to avoid and what makes for a pleasant albeit remote customer journey can be shared and incorporated into our services. As the world moves towards a more virtual work setup, OSRL will not linger behind. 

Fareshare is the UK's national network of charitable food redistributors. Facing a huge increase in demand, Fareshare were desperate for warehouse space and transport support. So OSRL created some space at its Southampton Base which has since then provided for 231,250 meals. All these done while keeping the social distancing and working safely despite the amount of manual handling and forklift work. 

OSRL recognises the benefits of having our members informed on the logistics steps and requirements when mobilising our equipment. This information can be found in our Logistics Planning Guides (LPGs).
