HSE Intelligence & Decommissioning Advisory · Oil & Gas · Africa

The risks that end careers, and the liabilities that outlive the field.

Day Zero works on both. A real incident in front of your workforce every morning, reviewed by our HSE team and built into a training record you can defend. And decommissioning and abandonment cost estimates priced obligation by obligation against the Regulations, with every gap named rather than hidden.

NUPRC D&A Regulations 2026
Road to September 9
-- DAYS
until Nigeria’s decommissioning submission deadline
If the Commission requested your D&A Plan tomorrow, could you defend it?

One executive briefing every Tuesday until the deadline: what the regulations demand, what the Commission will scrutinise, and the one boardroom question worth asking that week.

Decommissioning & Abandonment Advisory

Send your well schedule and facilities register. We price it obligation by obligation against the Regulations, with a low, most likely and high figure on every line.

Then we name what we could not price, and why. An estimate that hides its gaps is worth less than one that shows them.

How It Works

How it works.

Daily Safety Intelligence
01
Start a pilot
Tell us about your operation and we set up your team. Your first brief arrives the next morning at 9:00 AM, delivered by email.
02
Receive the daily brief
Every morning, a real incident from the global oil and gas record, reviewed by our HSE team. One incident. Root cause. Lesson. One action. Under 100 words.
03
Build your audit-defensible record
Your HSE lead runs each brief at the morning toolbox talk. Every session becomes a dated, documented entry in a continuous safety-training record: the proof of ongoing competency development that auditors, JV partners, and insurers ask for.
Decommissioning & Abandonment
01
Send your asset documentation
A well schedule and facilities register is the usual form, and whatever you already hold is enough to begin. Sent by email, treated as confidential, with a non-disclosure agreement first if you prefer.
02
We price it against the Regulations
We identify the decommissioning and abandonment obligations that attach to your asset under S.I. 15 of 2026, and price each one with a low, most likely and high figure carrying its source, its price basis year, and how the quantity was derived.
03
You receive the estimate and the gap list
A document built to the conventions a reviewer expects: document control, basis of estimate, limitations, and a sign-off strip left blank for you. With it, every obligation we could not price defensibly, named with its reason.

The Practice

The same judgement behind both practices.

Day Zero draws on a global database of verified oil and gas incidents. What makes the brief unique is not where the data comes from. It is who reviews it, how it is written, and the judgement applied to every entry, by a team of HSE professionals led by Engr G A Shittu.

The decommissioning work is held to the same standard. Obligations are identified against the Regulations, every priced line carries its source, its price basis year and how its quantity was derived, and anything that cannot be priced defensibly is disclosed with the reason rather than buried in a total. Nothing reaches a client document until the validating engineer has ruled on it.

"A major incident costs lives, lost production, and your licence to operate. Day Zero is the daily habit that keeps your team sharp before the shift starts."
— Engr G A Shittu, Founder & CEO, Day Zero Energy Limited
