In high-risk sectors like oil & gas, safety and compliance aren’t optional—they're vital. Poorly documented SOPs and commissioning procedures can lead to accidents, legal issues, and operational delays. At Sixfold Group, we specialise in crafting tailored SOPs and commissioning procedures that ensure regulatory compliance, enhance safety, and improve operational efficiency.
Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) and commissioning procedures provide structured guidance for critical tasks. They reduce human error, ensure regulatory compliance, and enable consistent, safe operations across teams and sites.
SOPs are written step-by-step instructions for safely and efficiently executing recurring or complex operational tasks. From startup sequences to emergency response protocols, they are crucial for maintaining safety and consistency.
Commissioning procedures detail the process of testing, verifying, and handing over systems. These include method statements, compliance checklists, and validation protocols aligned with industry standards like ISO 9001 or API RP 1SC.
- Gap Analysis: Identify inconsistencies or missing data in existing SOPs.
- Process Mapping: Visualise complex workflows.
- Regulatory Alignment: Ensure compliance with OSHA, HSE, and more.
- Test Method Statements: Detail procedures for system validation.
- Handover Dossiers: Deliver complete documentation packs.
- Risk Assessments: Integrate HAZID/HAZOP outcomes.
- Convert paper procedures into mobile-friendly formats.
- Include hyperlinks, interactive checklists, and version tracking.
- Custom training guides.
- On-site or remote workshops.
- Inconsistent Practices: Unified SOPs reduce error by up to 70%.
- Compliance Failures: We can align with OSHA 1910 and ISO 45001.
- Testing Delays: Detailed procedures improve commissioning timelines.
A major offshore client suffered audit failures due to outdated SOPs. We authored 15+ new CTPs, built digital checklists, and achieved 100% compliance with the UK Offshore Safety Directive 2015.
SOPs ensure safe, repeatable processes that reduce risk and improve regulatory compliance.
Review them annually or when regulations, equipment, or processes change.
Yes, we design scalable documentation to ensure consistency across all project locations.
Absolutely. We can align every document to standards like ISO 9001, ISO 45001, and OSHA 1910.
Yes, we convert paper SOPs into digital formats for easier field use and compliance tracking.
Well-written SOPs and commissioning procedures are more than documentation—they are your frontline defence against risk. Let Sixfold Group help you build safer, more compliant, and efficient operations.
