Business Risk
Business risk analysis and security consultancy services are provided to international oil companies seeking major investments in the Middle East and North Africa. This is normally in the form of oral presentations and written reports on the vital issues that concern investments in the entire region, covering all Middle-Eastern, and North African countries, but generally we are able to tailor our services to the individual requirements of the customer.
Our expert security consultants provide this unique service, concerning security issues and political risk analysis. Their work experience spans more than 15 years covering the entire region of the Middle East, with close first hand contacts with the major institutions and government bodies of the region. This is in addition to being members and fellows of the Middle East Security Program of the Royal United Service Institute (RUSI).
The business security assessment usually focuses on two main aspects of security: the general outlook and overview of the country’s profile, and the specific assessment of detailed issues concerning the company’s contractual obligations and commitments, including the implications of security on their assets and fields operations.
The political security of the company’s agreements and contracts will be assessed on the basis of analyzing the political stability of the country and the survivability of the government or regime. This would involve the likely implications of the developing political situations on the oil agreement and contract activation. Another aspect would be the implementation of the contract, and the political threats to the sustainability of the agreement along with assessing the governments ability and its interest in honoring contractual commitments, hence implications to capital investments and long term risk/reward analysis.
Other aspects of our service include the provision of assessments regarding the physical security of the company’s field operations. This would entail assessment of the security and safety of the company’s personnel and local employees from the possible threats of kidnapping or assassination, and the safety of the company’s assets and equipment from the threats of sabotage, theft, breakdown of law and order, confiscation, or other threats.
