ISO 29001:2015 rule is for all organizations that work. Within the oil and gas supply chain, ISO/TS 29001 certification creates standardization and improvements across the sector.
The oil, gas, and petrochemical industries most exposed to high-risk, dangerous liquids and gases are not properly treated or managed; they cause severe damage to both the environment and people.
Complications arise when the industry's equipment and service providers are located worldwide, especially in developing countries with different cultural norms.
Essential is operational integrity for this industry! To keep operations moving safely. It is, in fact, beneficial for commercial interests, the environment, personnel, and even the public to attain these high standards and ensure stakeholders get better through ISO 29001:2015 certification.
