Insurance Risks Management
CPS is experienced in asset management across all energy sectors. We investigate incident claims including cause and circumstances, and impartially identify actions to prevent and minimise loss in the future. Don’t wait until a claim is required: we can evaluate risk and advise on strategies to mitigate the likelihood of adverse events. This reduces your insurance costs as well as the overall cost of risk, so you can invest with confidence.
How we manage insurance risk:
- Review the policy and the contracts pertaining to the insurable interest
- Identify terms and conditions that apply to the claim
- Advise on the suitability and cost of remedial measures
- Review recovery and subrogation potential
- Confirm indemnification and subrogation
- Identify measures to minimise and mitigate future risk.

Operational Readiness, Compliance and Verification Inspections & Audits
All companies try to anticipate and avoid claims. When clients and insurers work together in proactive loss prevention, they interact to reduce claims and highlight the risk of non-productive time and invisible lost time in advance, instead of waiting for an accident or loss.
Readiness surveys help with this. CPS survey operational readiness to evaluate the ability of an asset to carry out its intended operational plan when operations commence. Our Operational Readiness Survey provides clients with a rapid assessment of an asset’s readiness and highlights issues that could stop operations commencing. We can perform the survey before the owner carries out any remedial or reactivation work to bring an asset back into operation.
