Safety Day - History 2007 : Awareness of Safety using Swiss Cheese concept 2008: Small change make Big Difference, Pledge made by all 2009: Launching of Life Saving Rules 2010: Fatigue Management 2011: Reinforcing Life Saving Rules 2012: Take Time for Safety & Commit Tell a friend Campaign
SO WHY“TIME FOR SAFETY” WELL………
IN THE LAST FEW MONTHS….. • We dropped 3 travelling blocks narrowly missing personnel on the Rig floor…… • We dropped a Kelly & a casing joint where 5 people could have been killed…… • We ignored the danger signs resulting in a floorman falling 9 meters, he is lucky to be alive….. • We bled off high pressure using the wrong procedures nearly killing 3 people…..
What is worrying this year? Compared to previous years the number of HiPo’shas increased. We have already had 24 HiPo’s in the first five months of operation The severity of the HiPo’s has increased, a number of incidents could have resulted in multiple fatalities The HiPo’s show an increasing trend.
What is an HiPo? • An unplanned HSE event (incident or near miss) which has the potential severity to cause permanent disablement or death. • It means we were lucky not to kill or permanently harm anyone!
We continue to see HiPo’s They seem to be so unexpected… Barriers… multiple barriers… are defeated … Systems… multiple systems… are defeated … What can we do..? Incident after incident
What are the common causes of these incidents? • Inadequate Risk Assessment • Inadequate Supervision of the job • Not reporting Unsafe Conditions • Failure to follow Procedures • Poor Management of Change
How can you overcome this? Inadequate supervision • Supervisors must ensure that the crew members identify the hazards of the job and the implement precautions to be taken.. • Supervisors should supervise the job and should not carry out the task themselves. • Supervisors must also follow procedures Do you TAKE TIME to Supervise Safely……….
Inadequate risk assessment • Ensure job specific procedures and JSA’s are used where and when available. • Involve the crew in assessing the risks of their area. • Ensure TRIC cards are correctly completed and address all the relevant risks involved. • Ensure TRIC is used as it is supposed to be used and not a paper exercise Do you TAKE TIME to do your Risk Assessment……….
Not reporting unsafe condition/acts prevailing in the area of work • Some of the HiPos could have been prevented had the crew decided to report and take action against the unsafe conditions prevailing in their work place. • All are empowered to STOP the job if the conditions are unsafe! Do you TAKE TIME to STOP and correct Unsafe Conditions….
Failure to follow Procedures • Procedures should be made available and followed at you worksite. • Procedure must be followed to get the job done safely and efficiently. • Not following procedures simply means your are taking a shortcut. Do you TAKE TIME to follow the Procedures…
Poor Management of Change • Do you STOP the job when there is deviation from the original plan/procedure? • Do you reassess the risks when there is a change in the job conditions? Do you TAKE TIME to STOP when the situation changes…..
In many of the HiPo’s… Both Supervisor or Crew members had the chance to Stop The Job… BUT DIDN’T..! Incident after incident Will YOU take TIME for SAFETY?
