ABU DHABI, October 6, 2015

Intertek, a leading quality solutions provider to industries worldwide, has won a third party inspection procurement contract for the South Oil Company in Iraq, a national Iraqi company responsible for all the oil and gas projects in southern Iraq. 
 
The multi-year agreement is the first time SOC has appointed a third party inspection company to help ensure the quality and safety of all their projects, which are contracted to various oil and gas companies, said a statement.

Intertek’s network of experienced staff will verify the quality of products and processes throughout the supply chain; from the sourcing of materials through to the manufacturing and fabrication of products.  
 
Some of the technical inspection services will take place at the factories to oversee the way the production process is piloted and to ensure it complies with international standards and adhere to the specifications set by the client, said the statement.
 
Other inspections and testing will be conducted in Intertek laboratories across the world, it said.
