Certa for Energy, Oil & Gas

Your risk doesn’t stop at your first-tier suppliers.

Drilling contractors, EPC firms, logistics, and the suppliers behind them all. Deep in that chain lives sanctions exposure, ESG obligations, and operational resilience risk. Certa gives you one operating system to see every third party, every risk domain, across the entire lifecycle.

  • Sanctions, PEP, adverse-media and trade-compliance screening on every counterparty — continuously, not once at onboarding
  • Sub-tier and concentration risk surfaced from the supply chain you can’t see today
  • Full audit trails and documented rationale at every decision point — built in, not bolted on

Outcomes for energy operators

What one operating system for third-party risk delivers

Visibility

See past first-tier suppliers into the sub-tier dependencies and concentration exposures hidden in your chain

Sanctions & trade

Continuous sanctions, PEP, adverse-media and diversion-risk screening on every counterparty — not a point-in-time check

Geopolitical readiness

Location-based and geopolitical risk surfaced across operating regions before it disrupts operations

Operational resilience

Single points of failure across critical suppliers identified before an outage forces the question

ESG & forced labor

ESG, forced-labor and supply-chain due-diligence obligations managed in the same workflow, with evidence retained

Coverage at scale

One platform spanning 120+ countries and 50+ languages — built for a genuinely global vendor base

The risk domains that matter here

Every risk domain, every third-party type, one platform

Energy supply chains span more risk domains than most. Certa covers the ones that actually move the needle for operators — in a single, configurable system.

Geopolitical & location-based

Surface exposure tied to operating regions, jurisdictions, and the political stability of where your counterparties actually sit.

Sanctions, trade & diversion

Continuous sanctions, PEP, adverse-media screening plus trade-compliance and diversion-risk checks across every counterparty.

Supply chain & sub-tier

Map dependencies beyond your direct suppliers, surface concentration risk, and see the fourth parties no one has time to chase.

Operational & resilience

Identify single points of failure, key-supplier dependencies, and resilience gaps across the third parties operations rely on.

Infosec & cyber

Assess the cyber, cloud, and infosec posture of vendors touching critical infrastructure and operational technology.

ESG & forced labor

Manage ESG, forced-labor, and supply-chain due-diligence obligations in the same workflow — with evidence retained for audit.

Four AI agents purpose-built for third-party risk — so your program keeps pace with a global, multi-tier supply chain instead of falling behind it.

Studio with Vibe Configuration℠

Vibe Configuration℠

When the rules change — a new sanctions regime, a new supply-chain mandate — your workflows change with them.

  • Translate your risk appetite and policy into automated controls in plain language — no compliance consultant or IT project required
  • When a new sanctions regime, trade restriction, or supply-chain due-diligence mandate lands, update workflows in hours, not sprints
  • Stand up a compliant onboarding flow for a new region, new vendor type, or new joint venture without engineering
  • Questionnaires and due-diligence forms stay aligned with the latest regulatory language automatically
  • Risk and compliance teams own their own programs — no bottleneck when the operating environment shifts

Data Agent

Questionnaire Pre-Fill Agent

Stop paying analysts to chase information that’s already available.

  • Pre-fills infosec, financial-health, and supplier assessments with existing vendor evidence — cutting manual review time
  • Pulls live data from external risk and intelligence sources to keep vendor profiles current between reassessments
  • Auto-populates due-diligence questionnaires from vendor documents, websites, and prior submissions — vendors answer less, your team learns more
  • Surfaces sub-tier dependencies and concentration risk from contract data no one has time to read manually
  • Continuous enrichment means your risk posture reflects reality today, not what a supplier told you 18 months ago

Risk Agent

Supply-Chain Risk Agent

Continuous risk posture — not periodic point-in-time snapshots.

  • Automatically tiers and segments suppliers by risk level — so enhanced due diligence goes where it’s actually needed
  • Analyzes contracts for concentration risk, single points of failure, jurisdictional exposure, and key-person clauses that create cascading risk
  • Evaluates operational-resilience indicators across your critical third parties simultaneously
  • Flags geopolitical, sanctions, cyber, and ESG signals in real time — not at the next periodic review
  • Moves your program from point-in-time assessments to a continuous risk posture across a global vendor base

Adjudicate Agent

Adjudicate Agent

The documentation an audit asks for already exists — built in at every decision point.

  • Clears false positives in sanctions and PEP screening so analysts spend time on genuine exposures, not noise
  • Every adjudication decision includes a full AI-generated rationale with citations — the documentation auditors ask for already exists
  • Enforces anti-bribery, trade-compliance, and ESG policy consistently, regardless of which analyst is reviewing or which geography is involved
  • Automates low-risk clearances so your team focuses review capacity on complex, high-stakes decisions
  • Creates an immutable audit trail from initial screening through final disposition — defensible in any review
