Full textAbstract:
In existing risk analysis techniques like the hazard and operability study (HAZOP) and the safety integrity level (SIL), design for operator safety is not considered. The health, safety, and environment (HSE) engineering depicts a detailed design directly related to the operator safety. However, the human risk had not been comprehensively analyzed. This paper proposes HSE-HAZOP as a technique for examining the systematic and efficient application of HSE engineering by exploiting the HAZOP systematic risk analysis technique and a quantitative risk derivation method, which is an advantage of the SIL. The analysis consists of four steps: the HSE-HAZOP preparation phase, risk analysis phase, risk assessment phase, and risk reduction phase. One part of a solution styrene butadiene rubber (SSBR) plant was used for a case study. In this case study, the items that handle with heptanoic acid were the study scope. After the risk assessment, we introduced the HSE engineering technique that should be applied for the risk reduction. Since there is no existing risk analysis method for HSE engineering, this proposed HSE-HAZOP is meaningful because it suggests systematic analysis method of the operator safety.

Full textAbstract:
The principles of health, safety and environment (HSE) in different development activities, including construction, are constantly gaining in significance. This study aims to evaluate the condition of HSE management and safety climate in construction sites. In this descriptive-analytic study, 111 male employees are randomly selected. To determine HSE condition and management and safety climate condition, the NOSACQ questionnaire was used. The collected data are analyzed using SPSS. Based on data analysis a significant relationship between the mean scores of safety climate, job groups and HSE management system with job groups, education and experience (P<0.05) was found. The study results show that HSE management and safety climate in sites are relatively acceptable, that the perception of safety had no special association with age, work experience, education and that the creation of a safety climate depends on the people high in the hierarchy.

Purpose This paper aims to assess the ways through which the concept of health, safety and environment (HSE) is perceived by workers in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) oil and gas industry. The study focused on different aspects of the HSE culture and how employees with and without leadership responsibilities differed in their conceptualization of HSE culture. Design/methodology/approach Semi-structured interviews were conducted for 30 staff of the state-owned Abu Dhabi National Oil Company in the UAE. The interviewees were purposively selected which included both those in leadership and non-leadership roles. Findings The findings revealed that the interviewees viewed HSE culture as a descriptive term, a causal phenomenon, a systemic approach or a legal requirement/obligation. Interviewees in the production and maintenance units mentioned safety most often. Employees and managers exhibited negligible differences in their usage of the HSE culture concept. Managers predominantly featured in the narratives as important drivers of HSE culture. Physical conditions, behavior and procedures, management, competence and collaboration emerged as important components of a sound HSE culture. Originality/value To enable better communication and subsequent improvement of the HSE culture, an analogical HSE culture “vehicle” was developed in the study. The vehicle is a novel illustration based on the key roles of managers and employees, as well as the main components of a sound HSE culture.

Full textAbstract:
This paper presents a benchmark of workers perceptions about Health, Safety and Environment (HSE) in the Australian oil and gas industry, particularly those areas covered by the Commonwealth Safety Case Regime. Between 1999 and 2001, the National Institute of Labour Studies conducted surveys of workers attitudes to—and opinions of—Health, Safety and Environment (HSE) in seven oil and gas companies. The broad objectives of this exercise were:To provide each participating company with feedback on its HSE climate from a worker’s perspective; andTo produce an industry benchmark of HSE climate, allowing each company to measure itself in comparison with the rest of the industry.It is hoped that the benchmark will stimulate HSE awareness within participating companies and encourage them to share information and learn from each other. This will lead to improvements in HSE within the industry as a whole.

Farm injury statistics are at an undesirable level in New Zealand. One supposed mechanism for reducing farm injuries is compliance with the provisions of the Health and Safety in Employment Act (the HSE Act). However, this article argues that the HSE Act is not achieving its objectives in farming, and is creating negative consequences. The article concludes that the HSE Act is not adaptable to a farming environment and accordingly arguments are advanced for reform of the legislation.

Introduction: PT. Pertamina RU IV Cilacap is a national oil and gas industry that has the largest refinery in Southeast Asia that manages raw materials for other refinery units in Indonesia to be reprocessed into fuel. The size of the refinery can illustrate the complexity of the system run by this unit. The HSE Unit in this company has a great responsibility to maintain the worker safety in the refinery. It is necessary to measure mental workload on HSE workers. This is because if the mental workload is not monitored, it can cause fatality, in this case, work accidents as a result of lack of supervision from HSE workers and mental PAK related to HSE workers resulting in excessive mental workload or property loss as an outcome of excessive mental workload. So, it is important to portray the HSE mental workload because of its responsibility to secure the health, safety and environmental issues. The purpose of this study was to describe the heavy mental workload on PT. Pertamina RU IV Cilacap. Method: This research was a quantitative descriptive designed study. Data were obtained by conducting interviews and using the NASA-tlx questionnaire on 71 respondents. Results: As many as 35 respondents had heavy mental workloads and 31 respondents had very heavy mental workloads. Conclusion: HSE workers at PT. Pertamina RU IV Cilacap has a heavy mental workload and even tends to be very heavy.Keywords: mental workload, NASA-tlx, oil and gas industry

Dewasa ini, konsep health, safety and environment (HSE) merupakan persyaratan yang harus dipenuhi dalam merancang bangunan atau kawasan. Konsep ini menuntut para arsitek untuk membuat perencanaan matang yang menjamin keselamatan dan kesehatan para pekerja, pengguna bangunan dan lingkungan sekitarnya. Namun, sebelum isu-isu mengenai HSE marak dibicarakan, arsitektur tradisional telah berdiri di bumi nusantara. Dengan berbekal kearifan lokal, arsitektur tradisional telah bertahan melewati rintangan alam dan perubahan zaman. Metode yang digunakan dalam penulisan makalah ini adalah deskriptif, dengan menggunakan data dari studi literatur dan wawancara narasumber terkait. Studi kasus yang akan digunakan pada makalah ini adalah Kampung Nage di Flores, Nusa Tenggara Timur. Penulis akan mengidentifikasi keterkaitan antara konsep HSE dan rancangan Kampung Nage, yang dilakukan dengan cara meninjau kembali rancangan kawasan dan bangunan individual di Kampung Nage. Hasil tinjauan tersebut kemudian akan dikaji kembali dengan konsep HSE yang diperoleh dari studi literatur. Hasil dari identifikasi menunjukkan bahwa rancangan arsitektur di Kampung Nage baik kawasan maupun bangunan individualnya menyimpan banyak nilai penting yang dapat diadopsi untuk perencanaan HSE. Melalui makalah ini, diharapkan bahwa nilai-nilai yang ada pada arsitektur tradisional dapat menyempurnakan konsep HSE pada masa mendatang.

The COVID-19 pandemic impacted the socio-economic sectors since the end of 2019. Indonesian’s Government issued the large-scale social restrictions policy to limit the industrial activities. This study aimed to investigate the difference of the health, safety, and environment (HSE) implementations among Indonesian companies, before and during the disruption risk of COVID-19 pandemic according to the use of personal protective equipment (PPE). It used a random sampling, involved 1,027 workers from various sectors of Indonesian companies. Hypothesis tests used are ANOVA and t-test method. The level of HSE compliance changed quite significantly when the COVID-19 outbreak emerged. The results explained, there is no significant difference in HSE compliance based on company location, company risk level, and position of a respondent in the company. However, there is a significant difference between companies that have a HSE division and a HSE Management System certificate with the company who did not have any. The recommendations of HSE improvement formulated using a Safety Model Canvas and a Focus Group Discussion conducted to convey the jazz scenario in the next normal. This study suggests the priority order for HSE improvement strategy in a company is commitment, responsibility, engagement and involvement, leadership, competence, information and communication, to organizational learning.

Full textAbstract:
Traditional health, safety and environment (HSE) reporting communicates the ‘what’ but not the ‘why’ of safety events. Organisations’ operations-data footprints are growing in volume and velocity but data are often siloed and can be of poor quality. This results in an inability to connect the dots and see through the ‘noise’, to identify patterns of high risk behaviour and root causes of high risk incidents to fully realise the true value of available data and deliver well informed decision making. Deloitte has been working with large organisations across the energy and resources industry, connecting traditional HSE data with contextual data, including employees, contractors, rosters, timesheets, training, and environmental and operational data to surface insights that would otherwise be hidden. By applying exploratory machine learning techniques to these datasets, the sector can gain new insights that were previously ‘hidden’ in data siloes. Drawing on lessons learnt, the paper explains how predictive analytical techniques can enable organisations to identify groups of employees at the highest risk of incidents and, critically, what differentiates these groups, to design tailored interventions and optimally allocate finite resources to manage HSE risk. The paper also describes key factors found to be driving high severity or repeat incidents and details how data conventionally used for asset management and operations optimisation can be analysed alongside HSE data to characterise potential control failures. The outcome is a framework that can be applied to provide continuous controls monitoring of material risks and critical assets.

Full textAbstract:
The level of contractor’s HSE is a major concern in outsourcing of the works for large organizations. In each tender a rational level of HSE holding by the contractors is recommended to reduce the project costs. By investigating the classification procedure of the contracts available in reliable manuals and models at international level, 6 main criteria were selected for determining the contract level from the viewpoint of HSE. Also, an indicator, called "contract separation" was proposed by weighting the criteria. Initial weight of the main criteria along with their scoring in this indicator was determined by applying sub-criteria characteristics, namely "specialized workforce", "man-day required for meeting the criteria", "required technology", and "impact of criterion on planning the next steps of the contract". Then, by preparing a questionnaire and applying the experts' opinion, the final weight of the criteria was specified, based on which all the contracts of Shahid Tondgouyan Oil Refinery Company in Tehran were divided into four levels, namely (1) advanced, (2) moderate, (3) basic, and (4) exempted from the initial HSE assessment. Results of the present study showed that the operational risk level had the highest impact percentage on determining the level of contract compared with other criteria, which indicates that regardless of other criteria, in case the level of contract risk is high, some special HSE measures should be planned for that contract according to the advanced contracts. Also, cost of the contract had the lowest weight; although cost of the contract is one of the most effective criteria in the contract classification, it cannot by itself represent the magnitude of the contract from the HSE perspective and its impact must be considered along with other criteria associated with HSE in order to determine the contract level.

There is a significant gap between the safety management in the Chinese colleges and many renowned colleges in other countries. The subject of this study is how to assess the performance of health, safety, and environment (HSE) in Chinese college laboratories. The assessment system is established by three parts. First of all, HSE performance assessment indicators for laboratories in Chinese colleges are identified based on the previous studies. Then set valued iteration is used to calculate the weights of the various indicators. Following that, multiple attribute group decision-making (MAGDM) method with Pythagorean 2-tuple linguistic operators is used to assess the laboratory HSE performance in colleges. Finally, taking a college in Sichuan Province as an example, the proposed method is used to assess the laboratory HSE performance. The assessment result shows that the proposed method used in this study is practical and feasible.

This article fills an important gap in our knowledge of call centres by focusing specifically on occupational ill-health. We document the recent emergence of health and safety concerns, assess the responses of employers and the Health and Safety Executive (HSE), critique the existing regulatory framework and present a holistic diagnostic model of occupationally induced ill-health. This model is utilized to investigate quantitative and qualitative data from a case study in the privatized utility sector, where the relative contributions to employee sickness and ill-health from factors relating to ergonomics, the built environment and work organization are evaluated. The principal conclusions are that the distinctive character of call-handling is the major cause of occupational ill-health and that effective remedial action would involve radical job re-design. Finally, the limitations of recent HSE guidance are exposed and industrial relations processes and outcomes analysed.

Health, Safety and Environment (HSE) regulation related to the natural gas industry in China is reviewed with a focus on environmental regulation. The review provides insight into the regulation, standards and management practice adopted, and it identifies trends and needs for improvement in China. The research finds that China is actively improving its HSE regulation system by revising laws and standards, and entitling regulatory organizations with new functions; at the same time, more companies in China are aware of the importance of HSE management and accreditation. At the current stage, the legal systems in China are effective in terms of improving awareness of and investment in HSE management. However, there is a long way to go before effective HSE management system implementation and mature HSE culture in place. From the experience of HSE legislation and management in Australia, we find that HSE culture and implementation are essential to the healthy development of the gas industry. We conclude that HSE regulation and management would benefit greatly from guidance on how to form HSE management system and cultivate sustainability culture, as well as from the further development of feasible performance measures.

Purpose Concern for health, safety and environment (HSE) is increasing in many developing countries, especially in energy industries. Improving power plants efficiencies in terms of HSE issues requires considering these issues in performance assessment of power generation units. This study aims to discuss the use of data envelopment analysis methodology for the performance assessment of electrical power plants in Iran by considering HSE and conventional indicators. Design/methodology/approach Installed capacity, fuel consumption, labor cost, internal power, forced outage hours, operating hours and total power generation along with HSE indices are taken into consideration for determining the efficiency of 20 electric power plants or decision-making units (DMUs). Moreover, DMUs are ranked based on their relative efficiency scores. Findings Results show that HSE factors are significant in performance assessment of the power plants studied in this research, and among HSE factors, health has the most powerful impact on the efficiency of the power plants. Originality/value The approach of this study could be used for continuous improvement of combined HSE and conventional factors. It would also help managers to have better comprehension of key shaping factors in terms of HSE.

This research is a qualitative research using the method of evaluation of the Context Input Process Product (CIPP) approach. Data taken using the guidelines interviews, questionnaires and observation studies and in the analysis of documents with descriptive methods through discussions and triangulation. All the activites of decision data is performed to all stakeholders components into aspects of evalution in this study include: Context Evaluation (C): The importance of goals and objectives in the implementation of the program; Input Evaluation (I): Strategies, procedures and activities of the program; Process Evaluation (P): Implemention process of the program; Product Evaluation (P): Outcomes and benefits of the program. The results showed that the implementation of HSE program is generally in accordance with its performance indicators but the success of the program has not been fully fulfilled because the program strategy is not directed and incomplete so that the implementation process is not quite as it should be because of the absence of adequate standard operation procedure. The recommendation of this research is that if the company wishes to continue the HSE program successfully, the company should review the vision, mission, goals and objectives of the program (Context), then fix the program strategy completely and purposefully (Input), completing the operation procedures, so that the implementation process in accordance with the standard operation procedure (Process)) that will further ensure the success of this HSE program (Product).

Abstract Recurrent falls are a major threat in older adults. Home environment can be a hazard, but it is potentially modifiable/reversible. In Miami VA, occupational therapists conduct home safety evaluations (HSE) to ascertain the need for modifications to reduce falls risk. We reviewed the cohort of high-risk, recurrent falls patients evaluated at our Falls Prevention Clinic (FPC) between August 2017 to November 2019, to evaluate the impact of HSE. We identified 48 Veterans, age 76.5±6.9 years, of whom 15 (31.3%) reported 1-2 falls/year, 18 (37.5%) reported 3-4 falls/year, and 15 (31.3%) reported ≥5 falls/year. Twenty-eight (58.3%) were offered a HSE. Within these subjects, 74.2% reported falling at least once within their home, 43.8% had fear of falling, 5 (17.9%) had a history of substance or alcohol abuse. We observed that 29 (60.4%) would benefit from the addition of grab bars and 26 (54.2%) could benefit from toilet adjustments. Twelve (25.0%) were recommended to install bed rails. Only 15 (31.3%) Veterans agreed to all recommendations, 25 (52.1%) declined due to preference, and 8 (16.7%) declined for other reasons. Only 8 (16.7%) of these Veterans lived alone. Another factor is that 11 (22.9%) Veterans were renting and 32 (66.7%) owned their homes. Addressing and improving environmental hazards may ameliorate the risk for recurrent falls. Our next steps are to evaluate the extent of home modifications, and the long-term changes in falls/year. Further research needs to determine the long-term efficacy and cost-effectiveness of HSE, and how it can be more accessible to the community.

Full textAbstract:
The challenges for a contractor to mobilise to a major hazard facility come from differences in expectations between stakeholders, gaps and inconsistencies between health, safety and environment (HSE) management systems, and the logistical challenges of initial training and competency verification. Differences in expectations can arise between the corporate office and site or also between various functional silos. HSE management system challenges manifest in the detailed procedures when the safety case is in operation. Training and competency assessment is an ongoing requirement, but the initial demand at first mobilisation creates a one-off logistical burden. The steps to lessen the impact of these challenges and to enable a successful outcome include: alignment workshops with customers and other stakeholders to create a shared safety culture and expectations of management systems; joint HSE management system gap analysis and risk workshops; early interface meetings with stakeholders; and, requirements having a comprehensive definition and pre-planning to deliver best practice. A successful mobilisation is characterised by the alignment of systems, improvements made during the alignment process by delivering best practice, meeting all HSE obligations for employees (including seconded personnel and sub-contractors), bridging the gap with sub-contractor management when implementing the safety case, and having all personnel trained before mobilisation. This extended abstract draws on lessons from recent real-world experience and offers a framework to overcome challenges a contractor can encounter, and sets up successful mobilisation for a major hazard facility.

Full textAbstract:
As recent disasters in the offshore petroleum and other industries illustrate, managing HSE is particularly relevant for companies operating in high risk industrial sectors. HSE management systems support companies in minimising adverse health effects, injuries and environmental damages as well as in complying with legislation, standards and stakeholder expectations. Key elements are risk assessment and control through implementation of preventive and protective measures, the preparation of emergency situations and investigation of accidents. HSE management<br />systems have also become a common element of supply chain audits and management. To increase transparency in their supply chains and to reduce risks, large companies aim at aligning compliance of suppliers <br />with their health, safety and environment (HSE) goals and policy. This paper shows with the case of Bisma Jaya, an Indonesian mechanical engineering company, how accounting for HSE can support small and medium sized suppliers to meet the requirements of large international customers. This paper proposes a framework for HSE management accounting and examines the use of management accounting to improve<br />the HSE performance of an Indonesian company as a response to customer audit requirements. The company is a supplier of a large oil company and seeks for effective and efficient ways of HSE improvement. The paper unfolds benefits and limitations of narrow efficiency-oriented responses to rating systems and audits and highlights that efficiency considerations in HSE management are only partially useful and require complementing effectiveness considerations on HSE performance.<br /><br /><br id="tinymce" class="mceContentBody " />

Full textAbstract:
The health, safety, and environment (HSE) risk assessment of major sewage transport tunnel projects (MSTTPs) is of great significance to guarantee sewage treatment, ecological environment protection, and sustainable development. To accurately evaluate the HSE risk of MSTTPs at the construction stage and effectively deal with their randomness and ambiguity, a risk assessment model based on the structural entropy weight method (SEWM) and the cloud model is put forward in this paper. First, an index system for MSTTPs was constructed via a literature review and expert interviews, and the rough sets method was used to filter the indicators. Then, weights were calculated by the SEWM, which is able to consider both subjective and objective factors of the weight calculation. Finally, to clarify the randomness and ambiguity in the evaluation, the HSE risk level was determined by the cloud similarity. The model was applied to the Donghu Deep Tunnel Project in Wuhan, China, and the results demonstrated that its HSE risk level was medium, which was acceptable. The index related to construction safety had the largest weight. A humid environment, improper power utilization, and sludge and mud pollution were found to be the most influential risk indicators. The risk level could be intuitively and qualitatively judged by the figure evaluation cloud, providing a vivid and rapid evaluation tool for the emergency decision-making of project managers, and the risk level could be quantitatively judged by the calculation of cloud similarity. Moreover, through the comparison with gray correlation degree, set pair analysis, and fuzzy comprehensive evaluation method evaluation results, we prove the scientificity and effectiveness of the proposed model. The research results provide a valuable reference for the project management of MSTTPs at the construction stage.

AbstractThis paper reviews the latest advancements in subsea technologies associated with the safety of deep-water human occupied vehicles. Human occupied submersible operations are required for deep-water activities, such as high-resolution bathymetry, biological and geological surveys, search activities, salvage operations, and engineering support for underwater operations. As this involves direct human presence, the system has to be extremely safe and reliable. Based on applicable IEC 61508 Standards for health, safety, and environment (HSE), the safety integrity level requirements for the submersible safety systems are estimated. Safety analyses are done on 10 critical submersible safety systems with the assumption that the submersible is utilized for 10 deep-water missions per year. The results of the analyses are compared with the estimated target HSE requirements, and it is found that, with the present technological maturity and safety-centered design, it is possible to meet the required safety integrity levels. By proper maintenance, it is possible to keep the mean time between failures to more than 9 years. The results presented shall serve as a model for designers to arrive at the required trade-off between the capital expenditure, operating expenditure, and required safety levels.

Farstad Shipping operates a fleet of large anchor handling and platform supply vessels globally. Priding itself on its motto Better By Far, Farstad Shipping’s vision of zero harm faced key safety challenges, including: leadership/communications; manual task related injuries; fly In/fly out fatigue; mental health issues relating to stress, depression etc.; an ageing workforce; and, changing/challenging client requirements. These challenges created a high level of indecision and frustration when trying to determine where best to focus time and money with HSE&Q programs to effectively impact operational productivity and safety performance. Beginning in 2007, Farstad Shipping partnered with Intertek Consulting & Training and implemented a framework designed to pinpoint areas of greatest concern. This approach uses research from OECD indicating best practice. Using this approach enabled Farstad to gather objective data on specific behaviours and to formulate targeted action plans that addressed the people, culture, processes, delivery, and sustainability challenges identified above. The framework was applied at sea on more than 25 Farstad vessels via onboard coaching, at onshore workshops, and at the Offshore Simulation Centre based in Western Australia. Subsequently, some key achievements included: three-fold reduction in injury frequency; reduction of total recordable case frequency from 14.0 to > 5.0; 50% reduction in workcover claims; and zero lost time injuries since September 2012. The methodology used by Farstad, which can be applied to organisations’ approaches to hiring, training, coaching, process design, and leadership development, is examined in detail and its application to Farstad’s challenges explored.

With 118.400 hectare of concession area and employed people for more than 21.694 employees within company and from business partners, Berau Coal needs to put more concern in managing operational and health, safety and environment (SHE). The challenges that need to be faced are location that scattered into 4 operational areas, limited time for employess to access information because most of time exploitated for working, various educational background, and technology literacy. Berau Coal has been developed a learning platform, named SINTESIS+ and SID. The aims in development of those platforms are; (1) as a operational and HSE-themed learning platform, (2) toincrease capacity and to build HSE and operational competencies, (3) to increase operational control for competencies related to entry permit, work permit, license, and specialization, and (4) to intervene employees’ behaviour to build safety culture. Features and contents that has been embedded in SINTESIS+ are online learning with multimedia materials, online testing with real time result, webinar, incident and mining operational news, repositories for employees’ portfolio, event and training registration, integrated with SID to recordemployees’ historical competency-related data, and sustainable process to increase HSE awareness. Since its launching, SINTESIS+ has been accessed by 7867 employees, tested for 1024 exams, conducted webinar that participated by 330 employees, and run more effective and efficient processes. Impacts from integration process with SID are the increase of compliance level for competencies to 98% and the increase of process control efficiency. With those increments, beside the employees’ compency and HSE awareness is increased, hoped to lower incident rate. In the future, to improve access to the platform, Berau Coal is willing to develop mobile apps forSINTESIS+.

With the developing of HSE (Health, Safety, and Environment) business in China National Petroleum Corporation (CNPC), the HSE system built in 2009 has not meet the management and integration demands escalated recently. The bottleneck lies in the architecture adopting a business-oriented way that resource management has to be coupled with application management, which makes business upgrading difficult. This paper proposed a design of resource-oriented architecture to tackle the issues confronted. The proposed architecture design views resource management as an independent task instead of coupling with application development and management, and will make it easier to achieve scalable resource utilization and application management.

The oil and gas industry has picked up on the benefits of digitization and artificial intelligence (AI) in its day-to-day activities, and the health, safety, and environment (HSE) sector is no exception. While AI brings clear benefits, the risks that come with those benefits remain unclear. While touting the advances of technology in HSE at SPE’s Virtual Annual Technical Conference and Exhibition (ATCE), Olav Skar, director of health, safety, security, and wells at the International Association of Oil and Gas Producers (IOGP), said, “I also see risks, and I remain concerned that we do not truly understand them.” Skar spoke at the ATCE on a panel that included Mohamed Kermoud, Schlumberger’s global vice president for HSE, and Philippe Herve, the vice president of energy solutions at Spark-Cognition. The panel was moderated by Josh Etkind, Shell’s Gulf of Mexico digital transformation manager. “A lot of power is in the technology,” Herve said. “The technology is beautiful. How we as humans are going to apply it, we need to think about it. We are thinking about all of the good things that the technology is bringing to humanity. Let’s keep it that way and remove all of the applications of artificial intelligence technology that may not be well perceived or beneficial to anybody.” An early target for digitization in oil and gas, driving has been the most dangerous HSE activity for employees. The IOGP claims that land-transportation-related incidents historically have been the largest cause of fatalities for its member companies. Since 2000, such incidents have accounted for 22% of all work-related fatalities reported by IOGP members. Schlumberger’s approach to driving safety was outlined in a paper presented at the 2020 SPE International Conference and Exhibition on Health, Safety, Environment, and Sustainability, a synopsis of which appeared in the August 2020 issue of JPT (http://go.spe.org/_01104-1542r). Schlumberger’s approach to improving driver safety includes an advanced driver-assistance system that alerts drivers of maximum speed limits, lane departures, and the proximity of pedestrians and other vehicles. The goal of the system is to effect good driver behavior. “If you analyze all the data, all the incidents, you find that behavior is always behind it,” Schlumberger’s Kermoud said. “People are trying to save time, to save the day. … The rules are generally perfect, but the behavior is something that we absolutely need to make sure that we impact one way or the other. And using technology will help us.”

The Shipyard industry is one of the growing industry in Malaysia. There is still a lot of room for improvement with regards to the safety aspects within the industry. This study presents the finding of a survey on the safety management in shipyard operation of class C and D in Peninsular Malaysia as registered with Ministry of Finance Malaysia. Shipyard operation is considered a hazardous job. Most of the cases were due to fall from height, fire and explosion. The accidents were due to crane collapsed and explosion during welding works inside a hull of a Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) carrier. The research aims to study the Health, Safety and Environment Management System (HSEMS) of shipyard operations in Malaysia particularly in Class C and Class D. This study was conducted using a survey method following the Glenn D’s equation. The findings of this study shown that almost all the shipyards had HSEMS in placed but some were incomplete. Accidents still happen in the Malaysian shipyard industry from time to time. Nearly 10% of shipyards did not have clear HSE Policy due to low priority given to HSE matters.

In some respects, the prospect of returning to some degree of normality is evident on the horizon. However, climate and the future of energy show little sign of a return to prepandemic normalcy. The future of our energy system is being transformed, and oil and gas are crucial for energy stability as well as the transformation. One of the miracles over the past year has been the accumulated knowledge around the human genome and application of this science to the rapid development of efficacious vaccines. As within oil and gas, humans can rise to the challenge to solve complex problems when identified. This is playing out as we see societal drivers around climate change and net-zero carbon emissions. Over the past year, SPE produced 11 events focused on the energy transition and continued the development of the Gaia Sustainability Program initiated by the SPE Health, Safety, Environment, and Sustainability (HSES) discipline. It is now a thriving community of SPE members across all disciplines committed to enabling and empowering all members and other interested parties who wish to engage in the alignment of the future of energy with sustainable development. An on-demand library of Gaia Talks and other resources has been built using the strategic programming framework (www.spe.org/en/gaia). Advances in our understanding and application of technology, and the development of those who can use it to better the world, are highlighted in the selections made for this month’s Technology Focus—genome sequencing of invasive species, technology to identify fatigue, and development of human capital for the industry in Kazakhstan. We must not forget the key element in any strategic improvement of performance: the human being. This starts with developing human capital at the university level. The industry is also working on progressing our understanding and application of human factors and human performance. As mentioned in the October 2020 JPT, the oil and gas industry has formed the Human Performance Oil and Gas (HPOG) alliance modeled after the very successful Dropped Objects Prevention Scheme program. The return to a more-normal life also means that our traditional conference model can reengage membership. Face-to-face meetings accelerate networking and the transfer of knowledge, which is core to the SPE mission. Events focusing on HSES this year include a planned in-person gathering the first week of November: HSES Focus on the Future—Responding to Changes and How the HSES Function Will Grow (3–5 November). This event will primarily cover health, environment, and sustainability with one panel on land transportation safety. It is strategically planned for the same week and at the same hotel in Fort Worth, Texas, where the American Institute of Mining, Metallurgical, and Petroleum Engineers will hold its first Joint Congress on Safety (1–3 November). A key element in building strategies within the SPE HSES discipline is the future of the function. Leading the efforts around this will be the newly formed HSES Executive Advisory Committee (EAC). This EAC, led by Fawaz (Fuzzy) Bitar, senior vice president of HSE and carbon at BP and former chair of the International Association of Oil and Gas Producers, includes HSE leadership from various upstream operators and contractors and will help with guidance and direction for SPE HSES Technical Director Annamaria Petrone. The EAC will hold a meeting and participate in plenary panels during the SPE HSES event in November. Recommended additional reading at OnePetro: www.onepetro.org.

Background: The study examined the nexus between Social Economic Situation (SES) and Substance Use Disorder (SUD) and the influence the two exerted on willingness to comply with Health Safety and Environment (HSE) guiding the conveyance of petroleum products among truckers in Ibadan metropolis, Nigeria. Methods: Multistage and simple random sampling techniques were utilized to obtain the 265 respondents who are professional haulers and necessary information on the study objectives were obtained through self-reporting designed questionnaire. Bivariate statistical analysis and Logistic Regression Model were also used in ascertaining the existence of relationships among the dependent and independent variables. Results: The result from the bivariate analysis showed the existence of an association between two SES variables of age [X2 (9) 17.05, p=0.04] and literacy level[X2 (9) 41.36 p=0.00] and SUD. While the marital status of the respondents did not significantly influence the incidences of SUD [X2 (9) 9.841 p=0.36].Furthermore, a Logistic Regression Model (LRM) examined the relationship between dichotomous dependent variable (compliance or non-compliance to HSE stipulations guiding the conveyance of petroleum products) and the different independent explanatory variables (Age, Marital Status, Educational Status and SUD). The Wald criterion demonstrated that marital status (p=.000), educational status (p=.000) and attitude to SUD (p=.000) all made significant contributions to the prediction (compliance) while age (p=.861) was not a significant predictor. Conclusion: The study recommends the importance of non-economic factors (like literacy and marital status) in the achievement of sustainable HSE stipulations guiding the conveyance of petroleum products.

Pertamina Gas is a company engaged in the midstream and downstream industry sectors of Indonesian gas. Currently, the process to access the best areas in PT. Pertamina Gas has not been computerizedand it is still doing manu ally. In assessing the area itself, this method is considered less effective and efficient to determine the best area. Area Assessment according to PT. Pertamina Gas itself is important to iincrease the performance and safety in improving PT. Pertamina Gas Health, Safety, Environment quality. Therefore, we need a system to determine which areas are the best in the PT. Pertamina Gas environment, using predetermined criteria. To create a system commenting on the area in PT. Pertamina Gas Environment, the author used the method Simple Additive Weighting (SAW) and Techniques for Other References With Similarities to Ideal Solutions (TOPSIS) for the best process of conversation and area testing.This study suggests finding the best method for reporting and helping to make decisions based on the best alternative value. The results obtained from this study show that the testing using SAW method is more optimal than using TOPSIS method, with the value of sensitivity change for SAW is 2.4 and TOPSIS is 0.7754.

Queensland coal seam gas (CSG) company Arrow Energy (Arrow) has implemented a safer, more efficient and cost effective approach to the transportation and supply of well materials to site. This paper examines Arrow’s approach to mitigating the transportation risks. It looks at current transport health, safety and environment (HSE) challenges, approach to address these risks, outcomes and future opportunities. The movement of well materials has been a concern for Arrow; it is a repetitive activity because wells are drilled, completed and worked over on a regular basis. Arrow’s challenge was to determine a better and safer way to load, unload and transport these materials. To address this material handling risk, an Arrow team developed a specially modified 40-foot flat rack (FR) capable of safely and securely holding a variety of materials. The FR can be picked up by a side-loader truck (swing-lifter), thereby enabling autonomous and safe loading and unloading. Warehouse staff can pre-pack all materials, thereby saving significant time for loading and unloading. Time and resources are also saved at the rig site where the FR can be unloaded autonomously. This unique design reduces human interaction and improves HSE personal safety risk significantly. A continuous improvement approach to further enhance the FR design to achieve better efficiency and safety for staff, as well as expanding its use to other business areas, is a key priority to Arrow.

Implementation of management systems on health, safety and environment (HSE) in Indonesia is still not optimally implemented, this is because the safety culture is not rooted among the people. Accidents occurred in construction activities will have direct impact on safety construction time, productivity losses and every individual involved in the work. These concerns are responsibility of company that must be addressed by the delivery of an integrated management strategy of quality, health and safety and environment. This study aims to obtain strategic implementation model in occupational safety and health to improve performance, particularly on construction activity. Qualitative and philosophical approaches are methods that used in this research. This research is located at construction area of SPOrT Jabar Arcamanik Indonesia with 10 (ten) research subjects involved. This research indicated that in order to improve performance in construction management, the system must be integrated with safety management strategy which are categorized in three sub area: structure policy organization, procedures and implementation. The implementation of this integration is expected to establish a culture of safety in the context of behavior and environment. In conclusion, the implementation of this project will improve performance in construction activities.

Abstract Background The Health & Safety Executive Indicator Tool (HSE-IT) is a standard-based questionnaire commonly used to assess work-related stress in organizations. Although the HSE-IT validity has been well documented and significant relationships have been observed between its scales and several work-related outcomes, to date there is no evidence concerning the relationships between the HSE-IT and burnout among healthcare workers. Aims To investigate the relationships between the HSE-IT subscales and burnout dimensions as measured by the Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI) in a sample of Italian rehabilitation professionals employed in healthcare institutions. Methods An anonymous cross-sectional questionnaire was administered to a sample of Italian rehabilitation professionals including physical therapists, occupational therapists, psychiatric rehabilitation technicians and developmental psychomotor therapists. Associations between the HSE-IT and the MBI were analysed with multiple linear regression models. Results A total of 432 rehabilitation professionals completed the questionnaire and 14% of them showed high levels of burnout risk. Significant differences in the HSE-IT scores were found between workers at high risk of burnout and workers at low risk of burnout. Hierarchical regressions showed an association between the HSE-IT scales and the MBI factors: emotional exhaustion was associated with ‘demands’ and ‘role’, and both depersonalization and personal accomplishment were associated with ‘control’ and ‘role’. Conclusions This preliminary study showed the HSE-IT subscales are sensitive to burnout risk as measured by the MBI. The association found between the HSE-IT ‘demands’, ‘role’ and ‘control’ subscales and the MBI dimensions is significant but small. These findings might inform targeted burnout prevention.

Full textAbstract:
Demonstration that risks are reduced to as low as reasonably practicable (ALARP) is a fundamental element of safety and environment regulation in the Australian oil and gas industry. The principle is well established, and offers operators relative flexibility in designing and managing their operations when compared to the more prescriptive regime adopted in other countries, such as the US. The approach, however, to building the ALARP case invariably differs between safety, environmental, and technical disciplines within oil and gas operators, leading to conflicting outcomes and sub-optimal solutions, which in turn can hamper production output and efficiency. A recent change in offshore regulations requires operators to focus on reducing overall environmental impacts from produced water through the ALARP principle, rather than by a prescribed limit. Through options screening, detailed technical studies, and consideration of environment and health and safety trade-offs, a robust ALARP position can be achieved, which yields increased production and efficiency, and reduced environmental impact, health and safety risk and associated cost. Drawing on recent project case studies with offshore oil and gas operators in Australia, the authors present best practices in the development of integrated ALARP cases for activities including produced water treatment and decommissioning.

The Health and Safety Executive (HSE) is the GB regulator for health and safety at work. The HSE Health and Work (H&W) program designs and carries out a wide range of interventions; including inspection, enforcement and other regulatory activities as well as prevention; targeting priority health conditions in high-risk sectors. It is anticipated that long-term, sustainable and coordinated actions developed as part of the program will over time improve awareness, behaviors, control of exposures, and, as a result, prevent work-related ill health in GB workforce.An HSE Measuring Strategy, together with measurement framework and principles, has been developed. The measurement framework draws together data systems, covering Attitudes (A), Behaviors (B), Control of exposures (C), and Disease and work-related ill health reduction (D), based on a simple model to provide evidence required for evaluating the short, medium and long term impacts of the large scale and complex H&W program on the GB health and safety system. The Strategy gives a new focus on measuring behavioral changes and risk reductions; and emphasizes longitudinal measurement designs to assess progress over time.For developing the Strategy, workshops were organized to bring stakeholders across HSE to review existing systems for conducting population surveys, collecting exposure intelligence and occupational health surveillance, which have contributed to forming a long-term vision of fit-for-purpose measurement systems.We will present the development of the Strategy and the plans to implement it with the H&W program, which requires close collaborations between epidemiologists and social researchers, policy makers, and other multidisciplinary regulatory specialists. The lessons learnt will help HSE towards building the right evidence base for monitoring and evaluation of a range of national level intervention programs for work-related ill health prevention.©British Crown copyright (2019)

Offshore drilling accidents have triggered regulatory reforms in China. The reforms aim to explore proper regulatory approaches to supervise offshore operations and improve their health, safety and environmental (HSE) performance. This study offers a review on the roles of risk and resilience in managing offshore operations and a well-defined analysis on their integrations with Chinese laws and regulations. The study finds risk and resilience approaches can promote the effectiveness of HSE regulation for offshore operations, while both are difficult to be transposed into legally binding rules in China. To fully develop and implement risk regulation for offshore operations, the study suggests to decentralize China’s command-and-control regulatory regime and encourage self-regulation in offshore petroleum companies. Transposing resilience thinking into legal practice is also highlighted so that various regulatory powers can keep proactive and flexible to any possible changes and uncertainties.

Full textAbstract:
Workplace safety communication plays an integral role in the day to day running of any organisation. The policies and procedures tend to provide a worker with the highest level of performance that is expected in terms of the output. Effective communication mechanisms are highly critical to ascertain the level of safety measures in order to achieve support and cooperation in maintaining an injury-free working milieu. Hence, communicative language mechanisms are needed to complement the technical and practical safety of all the workers. Unambiguous constructive safety communication mechanisms will lead to an improvement towards knowledge and fathoming of preventative measures that would enhance workplace safety practices. Thus, this study sought to highlight the occupational health and safety communicative language mechanisms, whereby the examples to illustrate the variety of safety communication has been analysed from a case study. The output of the research states that communicative language mechanisms in occupational health and safety (OHS), health and safety environment (HSE) tend to provide a better working environment, which can be considered as a conducive tool to avoid unwanted injuries and also to comprehend complicated occupational health and safety technical jargons.

Abstract Background By law, covid-19 disease and deaths in workers may lead to coroners’ inquests and/or Health and Safety Executive (HSE) investigations. Aims This study assesses the adequacy of these statutory means to yield recommendations for prevention of acquiring covid-19 infection from work. Methods Covid-19 guidance from the chief coroner and the HSE was appraised, including using Office for National Statistics (ONS) data. Practitioners were asked to estimate the likelihood that covid-19 disease may have arisen from ‘near-miss’ scenarios. Data from the judiciary and the HSE were analysed. Results The coroners’ guidance allowed a wider range of reports of death than did the HSE and conformed better with ONS data on covid-19 mortality by occupation. In the practitioner survey, 62 respondents considered a higher likelihood that reported covid-19 cases would have arisen from the scenario deemed unreportable as a ‘dangerous occurrence’ by HSE than the reportable scenario (P < 0.001). On average there was only one coroner’s report to prevent future death from occupational disease every year in England and Wales. The HSE dealt with a yearly average of 1611 reports of work-related disease including 104 on biological agents, but has received about 9000 covid-19 reports. Conclusions Current HSE guidance for reporting work-related covid-19 may miss many thousands of cases and needs further iteration. Coroners have very limited experience of inquiry into occupational disease caused by biological agents compared with the HSE. Concerns regarding national policy such as on protective equipment warrant a full public inquiry.

Hazards are potentially harmful. In the gas industry that has raw materials, tools / machinery, production and hazardous environment must use the completely and correctly. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the implementation of safety inspection and compliance with the use of PPE in H2, CO2 and dry ice plant in PT. X Region Gresik.This research is descriptive observational research, using cross sectional research design. The sample was 6 workers as sample interview and observation and 1 (one) HSE officer as sample of interview. The data collection includes safety inspection and the compliance of plant workers in the use of PPE. The data analysis used in this research is presented in tabular and narrative form, then using cross tabulation to see whether there is a correlation between the conformity of the number of PPE, the condition of PPE to the worker compliance in the use of PPE.The results showed that majority workers did not use PPE, the number of is not suitable with the number of workers, the condition of PPE is not feasible and compliance of the use of PPE plant workers is still low. Significant linkage between the availability of PPE TO compliance with the use of and the lack of significant correlation between the condition of PPE to the compliance of usage.The conclusion of this research is low frequency of safety inspection. Should increase frequency of safety inspection. And also HSE officer officer in carrying out safety inspection. The suggestion is to increase the compliance of workers in the use of PPE. Keywords: Safety inspection , PPE.

Purpose The activities of the oil industry from discovery to distribution of oil products have adverse effects on human and environment. Thus, the companies that are active in this industry should identify and manage their risks. The purpose of this paper is to prioritize the identified risks based on different measures such as cost, occurrence, etc. Then, selecting the most important corrective actions using goal-programming approach is another objective of this study. Design/methodology/approach To identify the health, safety and environment (HSE) risks, the Fuzzy Delphi method was used. The failure mode and effects analysis (FMEA) and fuzzy Vlse Kriterijumsk Optimizacija Kompromisno Resenje (VIKOR) methods covering the deficits of FMEA were used to rank the HSE risks. Unlike similar researches, in the proposed FMEA–VIKOR method, the risk priority number was not calculated. In addition to severity, occurrence and detection, the parameters such as time, cost and quality, being considered for ranking the risks, were weighted by the Eigenvector method. Then, a fuzzy goal-programming model was developed for determining the best solutions of risk response. Findings The research findings indicated that the most important risks include fire and blast because of tank and pipeline, leakage of connections and pipelines and industrial waste. Also, the most important risk responses include using and strengthening the alarm and fire extinguishing systems, using fiberglass tanks to prevent pipeline corrosion, using modern technology to have more efficient oil refining. Originality/value The main contribution of this paper is using hybrid approach of FMEA–VIKOR for risk ranking by considering different measures such as time, cost and quality besides severity, occurrence and detection. Providing a fuzzy goal-programming framework for determining the main risk responses is another value for this research.

Full textAbstract:
The Health and Safety Executive (HSE) is a risk based regulator for workplace health and safety in GB. It has an intelligence-led operational approach. To inform HSE’s risk control strategies, WISE-GB is developed to capture and integrate diverse but relevant data sources on an ongoing basis to generate intelligence, in a timely fashion, through enhanced analytic operation (i.e. statistical modelling, spatial and temporal analyses and expert interpretation) for monitoring and evaluation of the effectiveness of workplace exposure-control in GB.A workshop was organised in October 2017 to bring stakeholders across HSE to develop a common vision for WISE-GB and to identify the next steps for development. WISE-GB will generate national representative intelligence on the patterns (levels and distributions) of risk exposure to important hazards, which should support: 1) risk assessment, prioritisation and targeting risk control efforts; and 2) monitoring and evaluation of interventions, where reliable intelligence on improvement of exposure-control is critical in linking positive changes in attitude and behavioural about workplace exposures to better prevention of work-related ill health.A feasibility study will be presented, using Respirable Crystalline Silica (RCS) as an example, to illustrate WISE-GB development methods. This include: 1) capturing historical data as well as data gathered continuously through HSE operation and research, 2) accessing and utilisation inspection information, industry data, and data from other industrial countries to fill the potential data gaps; and 3) integrating diverse data sources to generate national representative intelligence. We will also demonstrate how the intelligence from WISE-GB contributes to the monitoring and evaluation of the HSE Health and Work programme on prevention of Occupational Lung Disease (OLD). These will help HSE towards developing a fit-for-purpose WISE-GB to generate real-time national picture of the effectiveness of exposure-control in GB workplaces.© British Crown copyright (2019)

1 Data concerning pesticide incidents investigated by the Field Operations Division (FOD) of the Health and Safety Executive (HSE) in Great Britain have been collated for the three year period April 1989 to March 1992. Over this period the HSE investigated 613 incidents concerning pes ticides : 338 related to general or environmental com plaints not involving human poisoning and 275 were sus pected poisoning incidents. 2 The two hundred and seventy-five suspected poisoning incidents were assessed by the Pesticide Incidents Appraisal Panel (PIAP) as 'confirmed', 'likely', 'unlikely', 'not confirmed', or that there were 'insufficient data' to make an assessment. Assessed data are unavailable for eight incidents reported in 1989. 3 Four hundred and eighteen members of the public were involved in 202 assessed incidents and 79 workers were exposed in 65 assessed incidents. Overall, 129 (48%) inci dents were assessed as 'confirmed' or 'likely', 121 (45%) as 'unlikely' or 'not confirmed' and in 17 (6%) there were 'insufficient data' to form a judgement. Incidents occur ring in an occupational setting were assessed as 'con firmed' or 'likely' more frequently (62%) than those involving members of the public (44%). 5 Thirty-six per cent of those involved in a 'confirmed' poisoning incident were working with a pesticide or were in close proximity to the operator; 41% were on private property adjacent to a field being sprayed and a further 23% involved those walking, cycling or jogging past a sprayed field. 6 These data underestimate the number of occupational pesticide poisoning incidents in Great Britain as incidents involving sheep dips are not considered by PIAP but are dealt with by a parallel scheme run by the Veterinary Medicines Directorate. In addition, few of the non-occupa tional incidents, for example those referred to one of the UK National Poisons Information Service Centres, are included in these data. 7 Sixty deaths from pesticide poisoning were recorded in England and Wales between 1989-1991, though the major ity of cases followed the deliberate ingestion of a pesticide rather than occupational exposure. Only one of these was reported to the HSE and that concerned the deliberate ingestion of mevinphos. A second death reported to the HSE involved a farmer who died some 11 months after he became unwell following fumigation of his glasshouse soil with methyl bromide by a contractor. It is unlikely that this death was related to exposure to methyl bromide. 8 Over the 3 year period of the study there was an increase in the number of prosecutions laid before the courts (Under the Control of Pesticides Regulations 1986 made under the Food and Environment Protection Act 1985), though the number of Enforcement Notices served decreased. In addition, the average total fine decreased for the incidents prosecuted successfully.
