Camco International Limited, a leading climate change business in the growing carbon and sustainable development markets, notes the temporary suspension of Det Norske Veritas's ('DNV') from undertaking certain activities pursuant to its role as a designated operational entity ('DOE').
The suspension of DNV until the forty-fifth meeting of the Executive Board in February 2009 is not anticipated to have a material impact on Camco's operations.
Notably Camco's forward sale obligations are all on a 'best efforts' rather than a 'guaranteed' basis, therefore a delay in the delivery of certified emission reduction certificates ('CERs'), while a regrettable development, does not create a liability to purchase CERs to meet delivery obligations for the Company.
The suspension of DNV until the forty-fifth meeting of the Executive Board will impact its ability to carry out the following services for Camco:
- In relation to projects expecting verification prior to 31 March 2009, there are nine projects with expected verifications of approximately 776,000 tonnes prior to 31 March 2009. These verifications will be delayed until later in 2009.
DOEs play an important role in the delivery of Camco's portfolio of carbon assets. Camco contracts with multiple DOEs for validation and verification of its projects to minimise the risk associated with any one DOE.
