How we do it
Put simply, we immerse ourselves in the details in order to find pockets of value-add and opportunities to minimise risk. OilJar understands the commercial impact of the details, it's what inspired our logo and drives our ethos.
We work closely with inspection companies, additive companies and ship's agencies to understand local standard processes, whilst staying at the forefront of new research, peer review and industry practice.
OilJar commits to fully understanding the business needs of our partners and to provide a service that we take pride in.
