Focus on efficiency:

From fragmented systems to one integrated tool

Today’s chemical management is digitalized, but the challenge remains for operators who require chemical approval processes; the available tools are fragmented and not well integrated with each other.

The lack of data sharing, coordinated functions, cumbersome workflows, and limited automation leads to inefficiencies in chemical management and difficulty in obtaining a holistic overview.

ChemCenter offers operators a modern solution that consolidates all necessary tools in one place, utilizing the potential for efficiency that comes with automation and new technology.

A Solution for Collaborating with External Parties

The requirements for chemical approval and the involvement of external parties in projects make chemical management a complex task for operators.

ChemCenter is customized to give operators complete control over all chemicals while managing the roles external parties play in chemical management for an offshore location.

Key Features

Read the details about our key features:

  • Automated update and maintenance of a global database with more than 10 million SDS.
  • Notification of revised SDS via automated processes.
  • Data from the SDS is automatically read, displayed, and utilized across the solution.
  • Print product labels in compliance with CLP regulations.

  • Relevant data is automatically populated in the application form, including SDS content and information on protective measures (control measures, PPE).
  • Contents and intended use are automatically checked against risk assessment criteria and emission permits.
  • Automatic approval of low-risk chemical products based on predefined criteria.
  • Automatic identification of products or components on hazard lists.
  • Substitution information from across the entire organization is available in the application form.
  • Include multiple chemical products in a single application process.

  • Risk assess chemical products using predefined templates.
  • The intuitive workflow is designed to ensure that risk assessments are conducted in a correct and effective manner, based on the NORSOK standards for the Norwegian petroleum industry.
  • Risk assessments are assigned a review deadline. For high-risk levels, the system will recommend a shorter review interval.

  • Repeated exposure can be recorded in a single entry.
  • Use predefined set-ups for automated exposure registration.
  • Register chemical exposure on behalf of others or for entire user groups.
  • Automatic identification of chemical products that require exposure registration (based on Norwegian legislation or custom settings).
  • Developed in consultation with the Norwegian Labour Inspection Authority (Arbeidstilsynet).

  • Predefined work operations streamline exposure registration and ensure accurate data from users.
  • Work operations are predefined with all relevant information, ensuring exposures are registered for the correct chemical products.
  • This control function guarantees precise data, leading to more accurate statistics and reports on chemical exposures.

  • Substitution candidates are automatically listed and prioritised according to criteria established by the organisation, including inherent hazards, HOCNF classification, Candidate List, etc.
  • Substitution alternatives are generated using data from our global SDS database, enhanced by AI technology.
  • Relevant data for substitution assessment and product comparison is automatically extracted and presented from SDS.
  • Built-in tool for internal or external consultation on substitution candidates.
  • Conduct trial periods for alternatives as part of a technical evaluation of options.
  • Chemical products slated for phase-out are communicated to relevant users and locations for processing.

An SDS authoring tool for organisations that:

  • Produce their own chemical products.
  • Edit or translate existing SDS.

  • Share chemical management information with partners and suppliers.
  • Facilitates the exchange of details on locations, substance indexes, work operations, and substitutions.
  • Enhances cross-company collaboration, learning, and competence development.

Placing Responsibility Where It Belongs in the Value Chain

ChemCenter is developed to streamline processes and delegate responsibility to the relevant players in the value chain. By placing system responsibility closer to actual chemical handling activities, the system improves both efficiency and quality of chemical management.

Customized access levels give users direct access to the necessary tools, enabling a more autonomous execution of chemical handling.

ChemCenter enables operators to ensure that necessary requirements are met, not only by their own employees but also by everyone involved in license activities. This promotes a culture of safety and ownership throughout the value chain while maintaining overarching control.
