What Insurance Do I Need?

Build your custom oil and gas engineer insurance policy. We offer:

Professional Indemnity Insurance

Working in the oil and gas industry isn’t like any other profession, so your professional indemnity insurance policy won’t be the same, either. Some contractors won’t let you take on work without the right level of professional indemnity insurance in place. This will cover you for a range of incidents which may arise throughout the duration of your contract as an oil or gas professional. With our online quote engine, you can now get your insurance coverage in just a few clicks, meaning you’re able to take on new contracts as soon as you’re covered.
Business Combined Insurance

To simplify the gas contractor insurance process and make it easier for contractors to get the coverage they need, we’ve built a business combined insurance policy that is ideal for oil and gas workers. This policy includes public liability insurance, office contents insurance, employer’s liability insurance and directors and officers insurance. This level of insurance policy not only protects you and your business, but it also shows your clients and customers that you take the risks associated with your work seriously.
Tax Enquiry & Legal Expenses Insurance & Contract Review

Protects your business against the costs of legal action taken against you, including contract disputes, debt recovery, tax, VAT and HMRC investigations. £100,000 cover for just £75 a year.

"I have been with Caunce O'Hara for almost 12 years now and am always very pleased with their service and customer support as well as the costs for the cover."
"Insurance Renewal - Plenty of warning up front as to renewal date, requests for any changes and quote. Reminder leading to actual renewal date. New certificates available on date agreed. Can't complain at all about the service."
"All correspondence has always been clear and reply to questions swiftly answered. Cost is very competitive. Would definitely recommend."
"I have automatically renewed my indemnity insurance for several years but as I have gradually reduced work commitments I needed to discuss my options prior to making a decision about renewal.
I found the person I dealt with very helpful and knowledgeable about my options."
"A very helpful, kowledgable and adaptable telephone advisor enabled discussion beyond standard questions in order to secure the most approprite insurance honed to my business deeds and relevant discounts. This led to the most comptitive quote over other larger companies."
"Used these before then changed to another broker who could not help me with an update to my insurance. Caunce O'Hara had no problem and set up my insurance in about five minutes. Highly recommended."
