Expert logistics management for the oil & gas industry.

Oilfield Logistics Management plans and runs the logistics function for operators and project teams — from the first project-specific logistics plan through mobilisation, supply base and vessel or aircraft support, wherever the project runs.

About Us

Logistics management expertise built around your project.

Oilfield Logistics Management (OLM) is an independent consultancy specialising in logistics management for the oil and gas industry. We work alongside operators and contractors to plan and run the logistics function a project needs — from early planning through mobilisation and into operations.

Every project brings a different location, timeline and regulatory environment. Rather than applying a fixed process, we build a logistics plan around the specifics of the project — the terrain, the local supply market, the client's own procedures — and manage it through to delivery.

The consultancy is led by Adam Beckett, drawing on logistics and materials management experience across offshore and onshore projects in a range of operating environments, from remote and harsh-environment locations to mature basins with existing infrastructure.

Services range from a one-off feasibility study for drilling support in a remote location, through to the provision of full Contracts, Procurement and Logistics personnel across the planning and execution phases of a well.
