KBC augments environmental consulting offerings

KBC Advanced Technologies has added an environmental services practice to its business offering, augmenting the existing KBC Health, Safety, & Environmental (HSE) offerings. This new full service environmental consulting practice provides a wide range of commercially acceptable advice and traditional services, such Environmental Due Diligence, Environmental and Social Impact Assessments (ESIA) and contaminated land work. The Environmental Services team develops solutions to emerging issues across sectors including mining.

This solution set brings together a highly specialised team and recognised leaders, who have been providing advice and expertise on environmental issues to the existing client base. Ben Sawford and Dr Jim Wright, both former company directors at the environmental division of AMEC in the UK, have been appointed the lead this effort. With this newly enhanced offering, KBC touches new service lines in new sectors and clients, including areas of renewable and nuclear energy, carbon management and mineral consulting.

“Expanding the Environmental Services offerings within the KBC suite of solutions is a natural extension of our current services, and it will provide our clients with a far greater solution offering while opening new sectors to KBC,” commented George Bright, KBC CEO.

For 30 years, KBC consultants have provided independent advice and expertise to enable leading companies in the global energy business and other processing industries manage risk while maximising the value from their assets.

In times of economic uncertainty and increasing environmental pressure, the KBC proprietary methodologies and innovative tools guide clients’ key strategic decisions, prioritise and implement initiatives that maximise return on investment, and improve operational performance.
