Lessons learned from other jurisdictions that could potentially be applied in Myanmar

DNV GL has developed two position

papers on best practice for offshore

regulatory regimes:

– In USA, we issued a Position Paper in 2010

with a focus towards the best regulatory

regime

– Globally, we issued a Paper in 2012

summarizing our views on how to achieve

the same improvement to Major Accidents

as shown for Occupational Safety

Some key take-aways in the following

slides

Occupational safety has been strongly improved

Over the last 20 years the offshore and onshore process industries have attained a

step change (factor of ten) improvement in occupational safety.

However - what works to improve occupational safety does not automatically improve prevention of major accidents

Ref. DNV GL

Major accident risk also decreases, but not to the same degree

Positive development in the North Sea

Global trend not as good

Deepwater Horizon April 2010

Montara 2009

No major disaster since introduction of Safety Case in UK and risk based legislation in Norway

“Complex systems fail in complex ways” (the US Presidential Report)

Major accidents happen when several barriers of technical, human and organizational

nature fail and decisions are made on weak basis
