Oil & Gas

Oil and gas assurance

Financial Statement Audit services
Our global audit methodology takes a risk-based approach that focuses on the drivers of the business, the associated risks and their potential effects on financial statements. Our external audit clients benefit from our network of professionals that have subject-matter experience on the wide variety of accounting and regulatory issues that companies in the oil and gas industry face.

We invest in knowledge and communication networks that give our audit teams access to up-to-the-minute information and the tools to execute efficient, insightful audits. We have established a detailed system of policies and controls, along with our comprehensive independence standards, which enable our audit professionals to deliver high-quality audits in which you can have confidence.

Other assurance services
In addition to external audit services, we offer other assurance-related services applicable to companies in the oil and gas industry, such as statutory audits, Sarbanes-Oxley compliance, assessment of procedures and controls relating to privacy and confidentiality, performance measurements, systems reliability, information security and outsourced process controls.

Climate change and corporate responsibility
We also provide assurance services related to climate change and corporate responsibility. We currently provide independent assurance over nonfinancial reporting for several major oil and gas companies. Our team can also provide sustainability assurance readiness assessments and assurance reporting on sustainability.

Financial Accounting Advisory Services (FAAS)
We can provide assistance on many of your current critical issues, including IFRS conversion support, implementation of new accounting standards, accounting experience during financial due diligence, accounting control or process support and assistance with public offerings.

Fraud Investigation & Dispute Services (FIDS)
Our professionals can help you investigate unusual financial activity, perform electronic evidence discovery and review financial reports along with corporate compliance — all with the sensitivity and urgency you require. And we provide expert witness testimony as necessary to explain our findings.
