SEVERAL KEY HUMAN PERFORMANCE FACTORS FROM BP TEXAS CITY INVESTIGATION

1. Lack of technically trained personnel during startup

2. Outdated and ineffective operating procedures

3. Inadequate operator training program

What is the value of performance improvement tools?

How much would you save if you could eliminate just 1 unplanned shutdown per year?

How much would you save if you could eliminate 1 day in a turn-around?

How much is 1 less reportable incident worth?

We have come a long way since 1901, but we still need to…

Help him understand The Why!
