Commenting on these latest moves, Paul Frankland, Assistant Vice President of Sembcorp UK's Protection Group says; 'At Sembcorp, we are acutely aware of the need to communicate to improve safety standards, and to share knowledge and experience with colleagues throughout the emergency response community. The EPSC and the IFPO also provide us with new opportunities to listen and learn, which is an essential part of our quest to deliver a world-class service to our customers in high-hazard environments.'

As part of its inauguration into the IFPO, Emergency Planning Manager, Kevin O'Hare, gave delegates to the Institute's recent annual Assemblage meeting in London a presentation outlining Sembcorp's role in protecting £14 billion worth of high-hazard industrial assets on Teesside. The Protection Group is also an active member of JOIFF, the Joint Oil & Industry Fire Forum, and the Institute of Fire Engineers, which the company is supporting by exhibiting at its conference in July where the theme this year is Innovation in Community Risk Reduction.
