Developing health, safety & environment management systems for well service operations in the North Sea
A health, safety and environmental management system has been developed to meet the business demands in the North Sea area. After reviewing published best-practice solutions a model that allowed the incorporation of existing programmes was adopted. Particular emphasis was placed on the need to implement a system that would promote continuous improvement, meet customer audit requirements and meet both current and projected future business requirements. In addition to formalizing and documenting a number of existing programmes the system introduced two new programmes; competence assurance of all operational personnel and internal auditing and benchmarking of management system performance. The system and its associated management tools are now being implemented in three countries in the North Sea area. Plans for future development of the system, particularly with respect to the integration of quality management programmes are also described.
