Extension of agreement means operator will continue to use Dräger’s portable gas detection and breathing apparatus systems.
April 07 2025, Blyth, Northumberland, UK – Dräger Marine & Offshore (DMO), a global leader in the field of safety technology, has secured a long-term deal with a major North Sea oil and gas operator.
Due to run for five-years, with a further two one-year extension options, the extension of the existing supply contract means more than 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.
Lawrie Kerr, UK Sales Manager, Dräger Marine and Offshore, said: “This contract win is a testament to the expertise, dedication, and collaborative effort of our team and of our industry leading products. It further solidifies our position in the offshore sector, and I would like to thank our client for putting their faith in DMO to deliver this vital service up to 2029 and potentially beyond.
“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.”
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 Dräger X-am® 2800 multi-gas detector measures up to four 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 one to four gas detector designed for use as personal protection, will be supplied on an ad hoc basis.
As DMO continues to expand its operations, this contract will serve as a foundation for business development and reinforces the company’s mission to provide cutting-edge safety-critical solutions to the industry.
