Engineering and Technical Services for Oil & Gas

Extreme climates. Complex geology. Rising expectations for safety, performance, and environmental responsibility. These realities shape oil and gas projects today. Across upstream, midstream, and downstream, we help clients plan, design, and manage assets throughout the lifecycle – from permitting to asset retirement – and support resilient solutions designed with the future in mind.

What we offer Platforms Insights Projects Our team FAQ Join our team

For more than 30 years, our WSP Oil & Gas teams have been developing a deep understanding of the sector’s regulatory environment, geography, and long-term asset demands. That experience informs how we guide projects from concept to closure.

WSP energy expertise across every phase of project delivery

Upstream energy, informed decisions

Conventional resources remain an important part of the world’s energy supply as the sector landscape continues to evolve. Upstream projects are shaped by long transport distances and rigorous regulatory frameworks. At the same time, rising expectations for environmental performance and community trust call for close alignment across engineering, environmental performance, and commercial discipline.

WSP Oil & Gas engineering, environmental, metocean, and remediation services are built around the operating realities, integrating social considerations into project delivery to support operational objectives.

Integrated solutions for pipelines

Midstream infrastructure is essential to the safe, reliable movement of energy. Operating at the intersection of performance, regulation, and public trust, these assets demand high reliability and efficiency. WSP Oil & Gas teams deliver integrated engineering design, planning, permitting, and asset integrity across pipelines, terminals, storage, and LNG projects. By combining technical expertise with digital solutions, we help clients improve risk management, strengthen operational decision-making, and support asset performance objectives, while navigating evolving safety and environmental requirements.

Strategic asset management and asset retirement

Reducing environmental liabilities is a defining priority for much of the oil and gas sector. Aging assets, evolving regulations, and heightened scrutiny demand a disciplined approach to environmental compliance, remediation, repurposing, and closure. WSP supports large-scale, programmatic delivery across entire asset portfolios, combining technical expertise with regulatory insight to help clients reduce risk, meet compliance obligations, prepare sites for future use, and achieve defined closure outcomes.
