Australian Oil and Gas Safety Background
Significant improvement in last decade
Continued serious incidents and losses of containment
We have rapid growth and emerging new sectors
Potential significant erosion of skills and experience looming
Lost Time Injury Frequency Rate 1996 - 2012
Source: APPEA Safety Data Reporting
Source: NOPSEMA Data and International Benchmarks
Diagram 1: History of Safety Management Programs
Experience shows that safety improvement requires sustained, resourced & passionate leadership along all program curves
The Case for Change
We are not so good at understanding the way organisations and humans interact, or how this affects decision making
And we have a serious challenge to build our peoples’ capability and competence at all levels
The hardest programs may be those that address human and organisational factors
What Success Looks Like
Industry/workforce/regulator aligned on safety priorities and vision
Companies working together to share and improve
Competent workforce with a strong focus on safety at all levels
No barriers for discussion/sharing to achieve practical solutions
Common safety language across companies in the industry
Industry that leverages best practice from around the world
Australia oil and gas industry safety performance operating at global top quartile
How do we take the next step in improving safety performance in Australia?
Broader participation across industry, our workforce, and our regulators in our safety leadership initiatives
Build a common approach and language where possible
Focus on safety initiatives that target next level of performance and prevention of Major Accident Events (MAE’s)
Be SMART and look to what is already out there as global best practice
Step Change UK incorporates many of these ideas and could assist us:
Address the hardest third curve – the human and organisational factors
Improve workforce participation and develop mature workforce dialogue, as well as broader industry and regulator participation
Be SMART and leverage of work already undertaken in a similar regime
CEO Safety Leadership Objectives Improve safety performance across Australia’s oil and gas industry, including
contractors (both personal and process)
Achieve consistent reporting of safety performance and trends and sharing of learnings from incidents (including high potential incidents) through APPEA
Identify global good practice & apply that good practice consistently across the industry (as relevant to the Australian context)
Increase awareness, understanding and develop common safety language (e.g. for process safety) at all levels right across the industry
Develop common approaches and tools e.g. supervisor safety competency, process safety capability
Achieve improved participation of the workforce in safety.
CEO Safety Projects and Broader Engagement - Proposed Actions
1. CEO Safety Projects for 2013/14 continue to be progressed through APPEA HSO Committee
2. Quarterly Status Reports on Project Implementation sent to CEO Forum attendees via APPEA
3. Lead CEO and APPEA to identify new lead CEO for 2013/14 (by end of September 2013)
4. HSO Committee to develop a proposal to capture and implement the appropriate parts of Step Change UK (Example wider industry steering committee) (by end of December 2013)
5. HSO Committee to work with the 2013/14 Lead CEO to set up and pilot the new approach (by end of March 2014)
