Britney then became the only female, completing numerous inspections to date. She has contributed to the refurbishment of lifting machinery on FPSOs operating in Guyana.

Despite having no prior experience in the Oil & Gas industry, she quickly adapted, embraced challenges, and has since thrived in the industry.

Founded in Molde, Norway, in 1998, Axess operates in over 25 countries. Following the expansion of its operations to Guyana in 2021, the company formed a joint venture with Guyana Logistics and Support Services (GLASS) in 2024 to establish Axess Glass Inc., the largest Engineering and Asset Integrity Management company in the country.

Through innovative solutions, Axess has successfully helped optimise operations, enhance safety, and improve asset integrity for clients in Guyana. Axess values all employees equally and is committed to continuously strengthening an inclusive and diverse environment for everyone.
