Our Services
Environmental Protection and Management
We are passionate about keeping our environment safe in all we do every day. Environmental Management Acts across various legal jurisdictions are to ensure protection of human health and the environment from the adverse effects of toxic and hazardous gases, chemicals, and materials. Our professionals provide support for permitting, ongoing compliance and defense of enforcement actions. We understand the applicable regulations, and we assist the client in implementing them.
As a Registered Firm of Expert by the National Environmental Management Authority (NEMA) in Kenya to undertake Environmental and Social Impact Assessments, Environmental Audits, etc. with an experienced team of registered Lead Experts and Associate Experts, we offer value adding and world class environmental protection and management services as guided by the Environmental Management and Co-ordination Act (EMCA, 1999), and other related local and international environmental policies and regulations.

ENVIRONMENTAL & SOCIAL IMPACT ASSESSMENT (ESIA) & ENVIRONMENTAL AUDITS
We assess the potential environmental and social impacts of various development projects in the region and develop appropriate mitigation measures as stipulated in EMCA, 1999 and its amendments.
-
STACK EMISSION MEASUREMENTS
We provide stack emission measurement services in accordance with the provisions of Kenya’s Environmental Management and Coordination (Air Quality) Regulations of 2014 for controlled and non-controlled facilities and other related local and international environmental policies and regulations for potential pollution source emitter e.g. boilers, generators, etc. This is to establish the levels of flue gases and particulate matter parameters and assist our clients in developing mitigation measures where these parameters are in excess of regulatory set limits.
-
INDOOR AIR QUALITY (IAQ), AMBIENT AIR QUALITY AND DUST LEVELS MEASUREMENT.
Using the latest and state-of-the-art equipment, we measure indoor air quality, ambient air quality and dust levels and assist our clients in developing mitigation measures where parameters of interest are in excess of regulatory set limits.
-
NOISE LEVEL MEASUREMENTS
Using regulatory approved equipment, we provide Noise Level monitoring including Noise Pollution and Excessive Vibration Analysis and Control Measurement services to our clients and assist them as required to develop and implement mitigation actions where the measured levels are outside of the required limits.

Wastewater Management
Effective water waste management is central to a sustainable future and critical for the conservation of limited natural resources. In partnership with our associates, we work closely with our clients to establish project goals early, so that subsequent activities are directed toward their efficient, environmentally sound and timely resolution. We ensure regular checks are done and provide means for handling sewage/wastewater generated from any proposed project.
Extractives Industry Field Waste Management
It is important to note that solid waste generated from the extractives industry (oil & gas and other mining) operation activities are very diverse in their characteristics, large in their amounts and many of which are hazardous in nature. Some of the E&P solid drilling waste include, Water-Based Mud and Cuttings, Fresh-Water Mud and Cuttings (FWMC) and Saltwater Mud and Cuttings (SWMC), Oil-Based Cuttings (OBC) and Synthetic Oil-Based Cuttings (SBC). Given the nature of oil & gas E&P activities and the high economic value of the resources, disposal of waste associated with oil and gas production continues to draw the attention of regulators and concerned citizens across the world.
Given solid experience and background in HSE management, we add significant value to our E&P clients by leveraging and applying the HSE hierarchy of control philosophy in waste management guiding them to recognize that disposing of waste should not be the first line of defense for protecting the environment but rather that waste minimization and pollution prevention should anchor the strategy. As we assist clients in developing both their short, medium and long term strategies towards waste management from E&P activities we adopt the following steps:
- Source Reduction
Avoiding waste generation, generating the least volume, or generating the least toxic waste possible. - Recycling/Reuse
Reclaiming useful constituents of waste material or removing contaminants from waste so that it can be reused. It may also involve the use of waste as a substitute product for a commercial product. - Treatment
Any method, technique, or process that changes the physical, chemical, or biological character of a waste. (Note that treatment does not necessarily prevent the creation of pollutants.). - Disposal
The discharge, deposition, injection, dumping, spilling, leaking, or placing of any waste into or on land, water, or air.
