About Us

At Guyana Suriname Consulting Group (GSCG) we believe that a functional organization helps foster the long-term development of specialist expertise and reinforces accountability for risk management. Our approach to Safety and Operational Risk Organization allows us to have an independent view of operational risk. Our team of specialists are accountable for the overall risk management process. We have the deep technical expertise needed to verify plans and results. We can, when necessary, intervene on our client's behalf in operations.

Our performance and reward system reflects the fact that all personnel at GSCG – regardless of their actual job function – have a responsibility for safe operations. We have further enhanced our leadership capabilities to ensure our clients fully benefit from site inspections and formal audits consistent with best industry practices. Our executive leadership team and many of our technical consultants are armed with an appreciation of the key barriers that they discussed in the course of the annual risk review process. They can then observe our client's team’s awareness and understanding of barrier integrity at the operating site in a more systematic way. These fundamental changes were put in place to assure a deep, standardized, and verifiable approach to reducing risk across our global clientele operations.

So we are focusing with exceptional intensity on the barriers that stand between us and the risk we are managing on behalf of our clients. Not only the physical and the human barriers, but systems that sustain those barriers.

GSCG Continues to focus and support our global clients in the following primary areas:
