Coverages

Operator’s Extra Expense

Coverage for all operations related to the exploration and production of an oil well, from drilling to closure, both onshore and offshore. This section includes coverages for well control (expenses for when a well-control event occurs and the well needs to be brought back under control safely); redrilling (expenses incurred to redrill or restore a well); and seepage and pollution, cleaning and contamination (expenses incurred when attempting to remove, nullify, and/or clean/dispose of any pollution, seepage, or contamination by substances released from insured wells).

Physical Damage

Coverage for damage to oil and/or gas equipment, including but not limited to tools, materials, devices, substructures, or other equipment components, both onsite and in transit.

It also includes coverage for fixed or floating platforms, as well as all their modules and facilities, including all equipment, tools, machinery, movable legs, materials, supplies, accessories, drilling rigs and equipment, drilling towers and/or drill strings, and casing pipes, whether owned or under the care, custody, or control of the insured.

Liability

Reimburses the insured for the sums for which it becomes liable relative to bodily injury and/or monetary damages, loss of life, bodily harm, or illness caused to third parties arising out of the activities relative to the oil and gas operations. Additional coverages available are Employer’s Liability, Cross-Liability, Sudden Pollution, Pain and Suffering, and more.

Offshore Construction

Coverage for oil and gas activities carried out during offshore design and construction projects such as procurement, construction, fabrication, launch, loading/unloading, land or marine transportation or installation, burial, interconnection, connection operations and/or connection parts, testing and commissioning, start-up and maintenance operations, design studies, engineering, project management, testing, excavation, and commissioning. Offers coverage options both for Physical Damage and for Liability related to the construction project.

Loss of Revenue as a Result of Business Interruption

Reimburses the insured in the event of an unexpected loss of production (or of revenue), as a result of any damage. This coverage must be linked to the coverage for Physical Damage and/or Operator’s Extra Expense.

Loss of Revenue as a Result of Network Interruption (Cyberattack)

The insured is covered in the event of an unexpected loss of production (or of revenue), as a result of a cyberattack or a network interruption. This coverage must be linked to the coverage for Physical Damage and/or Operator’s Extra Expense.

Decommissioning

Provides coverage both for Physical Damage and for Liability for decommissioning projects, which encompass the technical and engineering procedures for an offshore system that aim at the decommissioning of platform units and/or oil vessels, as well as production facilities in oil and natural gas fields during all stages of the removal process of these assets, from the dismantling of the modules at sea to final unloading in shipyards.
