Home / Projects Projects Validation & Verification Plan Review for an Oil and Gas Company December 13, 2022 All Projects, Carbon & Sustainability In Singapore, the carbon tax is set at a rate of $5 per tonne of GHG emissions (tCO2e). To achieve our climate ambition, the carbon tax will be raised to $80/tCO2e by 2030. Hence, companies are making their effort to improve their energy efficiency and reduce carbon emissions. An international Oil and Gas Company has engaged TEMBUSU Asia Consulting (TAC) to review and endorse their Measurement and Verification (M&V) Plan for the application of the Resource Efficiency Grant for Energy . As part of the process, our client is required to submit a verified pre-validation and post-verification plan for quantifying the carbon abatement delivered through the project implementation. Our client seeks to reduce their power and fuel consumption by installing a piece of additional equipment to debottleneck the capacity, thus increasing their efficiency while reducing carbon emissions at the same time. TAC’s services include reviewing M&V plan by conducting validation and verification through rigorous risk assessments, data collection, review of documentary evidence, and interview sessions as well as producing the validation and verification report. This project demonstrates TAC’s commitment to fulfilling SDG 12: Responsible Consumption and Production and SDG 13: Climate Action. Previous Back Next

Home / Projects Projects Workshop on EIA and EMMP: “Developing an understanding of EIA & EMMP process” July 16, 2021 All Projects, Capacity Building TEMBUSU Asia Consulting was invited to conduct a one-day capacity building workshop on Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) and Environmental Management and Monitoring Plan (EMMP). The participants consisted of officers from a Government Agency, EPC Contractor, and consultants of the project team. The purpose of this training programme is to explain the fundamentals of executing an EIA and EMMP and how these tools can assist developers and EPC Contractors to manage potential adverse environmental impacts from infrastructure development. Comprehension of these topics is important especially in light of the increasing public awareness of environmental and climate change issues, which contribute to the greater scrutiny of infrastructure projects within environmentally sensitive areas in Singapore. As such, it is vital that a thorough understanding of the EIA and EMMP process is developed among all stakeholders, including Architects, Engineers, Sustainability Practitioners, EHS Practitioners, Construction Professionals, Environmental Control Officer, and Government Officers. In the near future, we hope to provide this training for other stakeholders in the Built-Environment and Infrastructure sectors. With such a training programme as our contribution to sustainable development through SDG #4 Quality Education and SDG #17 Partnerships for the Goals , we hope to build our partner’s capacity and minimize the environmental impacts from various development.

Home / Projects Projects Biodiversity Screening of an Island Offshore of Sabah, Malaysia November 19, 2020 All Projects, Environmental & Ecology TEMBUSU Asia Consulting was commissioned to conduct a biodiversity screening of an island offshore the mainland of Sabah, Malaysia. While the land use history of the island has left much of the terrestrial vegetation in a degraded state, the coasts and waters around the island are teeming with various marine habitats and biodiversity that utilises these habitats. Our works begin with the desktop study and field survey of the existing biodiversity to better understand the island’s overall ecological importance in the regional context. From these data that we gather, we are then able to provide recommendations to our Client to safeguard marine habitats, restore and enhance terrestrial habitats, and contribute to sustainable, low-impact developmental plans on the island.
