Pathways to Improvement….

13

Stopping old incidents

Analyse databank of previous incidents and HiPos to test for risk to ALARP in assessments and inspections;

Effective audits

Find one, fix many

Prevent future events through examination and sharing learnings from current non-compliances, incidents and best practices

Enhance existing good practice

Respond to evolving trends

Address transparency expectations

Remove unnecessary regulatory burden to improve efficiency

Looking elsewhere for better practices and tools to apply now

Prevent major accident events: loss of life, containment

Effective incident response & spill source control

Oil spill preparedness arrangements

Prevent loss of well control

“If I had an hour to solve a problem I’d spend 55 minutes thinking about the problemand 5 minutes thinking about the solution.”

Albert Einstein

Deciding on Inspection Topics

– Trending from notifications and inspections: dropped objects…

– International events in the industry: e.g HC releases, aging assets

– Focused on prevention of MAEs

– Topics applicable to most facilities (for trending purposes)

– Topics carried over from former years

– Mooring and loss of position, BOP systems

– “New” Issues

• 3rd Party equipment, isolations, investigations…….

16

Dropped Objects• Procedures

– Lack of adequate work instructions

– JSAs with ineffective capture of all the hazards

– No pre-checks for some routine tasks

– No equipment maintenance routines for the equipment that failed (causing a drop)

– Procedures not properly implemented or monitored by supervisors

– Drops designed tools not properly controlled

• Training and Competency

– Lack of appropriate training and competency assurance material covering safety critical equipment and operations

– No specific training for specialist lifting equipment

– Inadequate training in conducting Drops inspections

– Stop Work Authority had not been applied

Apr & Dec 2017

Workshop April 2018• Opportunity to get issues in the open

– No blame

– Collective understanding

– Roles, responsibilities

– Safety Case and “risk ALARP”

• Focus on the problem

• Working groups– Wider industry involvement

– Solution development; Guidance

Big Data Opportunity?

Data searching

and sharing

2014: “Initiating Event: Auto DP was deselected when the rough DP logbook was placed on the DP control desk”

2013: “a clipboard was placed on the DP desk which resulted in the fore/aft surge button being inadvertently pressed”

2013: “DPO inadvertently pressed the joystick button with the logbook he was reading from”

2009: “Main Cause Human error – Placing of logbook on surge switch”

2005: “Two pushes of the stand-by button took place within the allowed 4 seconds through a clipboard being put on the DP console”

Source: IMCA Database

Well Integrity 2018

– 919 wells, 80% aging production wells, 15% suspended wells, 5% new high capacity wells

– “good industry practice”

• Performance standards/ MoC/ contractor interface– Increase in WI inspections

– Well barrier/failure workshop 7 Nov 2018 – DISC

• Esso, Shell, Woodside

– Future ideas? Well control incidents;
