Intertek has awarded the ISO 22301:2012 certification for Business Continuity Management System to Saudi Aramco Total Refining and Petrochemical Company (SATORP).

ISO 22301 is a globally recognised international standard for Business Continuity Management System which specifies requirements to plan, establish, implement, operate, monitor, review, maintain and continually improve a management system to protect against, reduce the likelihood of occurrence, prepare for, respond to, and recover from disruptive incidents when they arise, explained Intertek.
HSSE Manager of SATOR Hatem Al-Ahmadi said: “Achieving the certification for Business Continuity is a testament of SATORP’s strength and resilience to withstand any threats and risks. ISO 22301:2012 certification shows our pledge to all stakeholders that we will implement and maintain effective measures for continuity of our business despite COVID-19 or any other disruptive incident. We are honoured to have received this certification from Intertek and would like to thank their team for professionalism and diligence throughout the certification process.”
Samir Ahmed, director of Business Assurance at Intertek added: “We are pleased to be working with SATORP on this certification process. The adoption of Business Continuity Management system prepares an organization to display resilience and confidence to customers and other interested parties of a continuous operation, even if any incidents occur. By achieving ISO 22301 certification, SATORP has demonstrated that it has a structured risk management system in place to ensure business continuity.
