PHILADELPHIA, PENNSYLVANIA (Philipp Markopulos, Energy Analytics Institute, 7.May.2025) — Dräger Marine & Offshore (DMO), involved in field safety technology, secured a long-term deal with a major North Sea oil and gas operator.
Due to run for 5-years, with a further 2 one-year extension options, the extension of the existing supply contract means over 10 UK North Sea assets will continue to benefit from Dräger’s industry leading portable gas detection and breathing apparatus systems.
Building on an existing decade-long relationship – which has previously covered the provision of products and training services – this partnership cements DMO’s reputation as a leading provider of essential safety equipment for the offshore oil and gas sector, DMO announced on 7 May 2025 in an official statement.
“Health and safety should be of the upmost importance to any business, whether that be in offshore oil and gas or otherwise, and by engaging DMO’s services for a minimum of five-years the operator is underscoring its long-term commitment to upholding the sector’s high standards,” DMO offshore UK sales manager Lawrie Kerr said in the statement.
In an industry where safety is paramount, but budgets are tight, cost-effective yet reliable gas detection is essential. DMO offers a comprehensive range of portable gas detectors and personal gas monitors to make safety, compliance, and asset management intuitive, the company said.
The Dräger X-am® 2800 multi-gas detector measures up to 4 gases and is equipped with a particularly shock-resistant CatEx sensor, offering live data transmission and powerful fleet management. Meanwhile the Dräger X-am 2500, a 1 to 4 gas detector designed for use as personal protection, will be supplied on an ad hoc basis.
