Dräger secures major North Sea gas detection and monitoring contract

Due to be rolled out across an offshore oil and gas asset next year, the deal marks the fourth large-scale multi-gas monitor (MGM) changeout delivered by Dräger for the client, following similar successes on both onshore and offshore assets in recent years.

After a detailed evaluation, Dräger’s equipment was selected for offering lower maintenance requirements and greater versatility compared with competing technologies.

The decision was also strongly influenced by previous successes, where consistent performance, reliability and hands-on support have earned the confidence of both operational and HSE teams.

Building on the delivery of recent changeout projects across several major North Sea sites, this new scope will equip teams with a fully integrated suite of safety capabilities.

Deliverables include personnel monitoring, automated bump testing and calibration via X-Dock technology, confined space and purging solutions and benzene monitoring. It also covers the introduction of Gas Detection Connect (GDC), Dräger’s cloud-based asset management and live monitoring software, to strengthen asset management processes. Together, these systems will underpin a modernised, future-ready safety framework for the asset and its workforce.

Account Manager at Dräger UK, Paul Davidson, said: “This win is a clear signal that when safety is on the line, the market knows exactly who it can trust. Time and again, we’ve proven that our technology performs, our support delivers and our people go the extra mile, meaning less downtime, lower maintenance, smoother transitions and equipment that simply does what it’s supposed to do.

“I would like to thank the North Sea operator for the trust they continue to place in us across multiple assets and multiple years. Their teams have seen the consistency of our delivery, the quality of our technology and the commitment of our people up close, and their ongoing confidence is something we never take for granted.”

The award also demonstrates the value of Dräger’s collaborative, cross-departmental approach and is further evidence of the company’s ongoing momentum in the North Sea.

While the opportunity was initiated through close engagement with our partners, informed by years of technical demonstrations, trials, training, and transition planning, it will be delivered by Dräger’s specialist project teams to ensure a seamless and efficient onboarding process.
