Consultancy projects in action
Archer Knight carried out consultancy work for a subsea pipeline, inspection and intervention services firm, with bases in the UK, Malaysia and Egypt. Our client was looking for an experienced company capable of providing high-quality support on a call-off basis, as it grows its global operations.
We provided QHSE and project-management support. This allowed the client to deliver the contract but release individuals if required, giving the company the benefit of optimum access and flexibility, but with minimum overhead exposure.
We built a strong, sustainable relationship with the company’s leadership team and the client has also now benefited from our market intelligence service.
