SCOPE / 02.01

Project Assurance

Owner-side oversight across the LNG capital project lifecycle. Regulatory compliance, construction inspection, and pre-commissioning support delivered by inspectors qualified to testify on what they witnessed.

WHAT WE DO

Capabilities under Project Assurance

  1. 01

    Regulatory and LNG project compliance

    Construction Quality Assurance, Quality Audits, and Inspection Support for LNG projects subject to FERC 18 CFR Part 380 and BC OGC Facility Regulation. PSG is an Approved Agency for both. Reports written to the form regulators expect, not translated from a generic template.

  2. 02

    Construction inspection and progress monitoring

    Field engineering review, erection and installation monitoring, mechanical completion verification. Stored-materials and preservation oversight. We catch what gets papered over by the EPC schedule, not what the schedule says we should catch.

  3. 03

    Pre-commissioning and commissioning support

    System sterility verification, mechanical completion audits, electrical and instrumentation calibration check-out, equipment troubleshooting, start-up and stabilization support. Owners brief us before the EPC turnover; we are at the table when the systems first come live.

ENGAGEMENT

How an engagement starts

No discovery-call gauntlet. Four steps from first contact to inspectors on site.

  1. STEP 01

    Discovery call

    One call, one hour, no slide deck. We listen for what regulators have flagged, what the EPC is hiding, and what your QA bandwidth actually is.

  2. STEP 02

    Scope and estimate

    A one-page scope written in audit language plus a not-to-exceed estimate. Most engagements price by inspector-day plus expenses, capped.

  3. STEP 03

    Kickoff and project plan

    Named inspectors, named project lead, a reporting cadence we promise we can hit. You meet the people who will be on site.

  4. STEP 04

    Execution and reporting

    Daily field reports, weekly summary, monthly stakeholder review. Findings logged with photographs, drawing references, and code citations.
