Oilfield service companies, l ike oil and gas producers, use Health, Safety and Environment Management S ystems (HSE MS) to implement their HSE policies and continuously improve t heir HSE performance. With the tragic event in the Gulf of Mexico in April 2010, the implementation of an HSE MS in offshore oil and gas operations moved from a recommended practice to a regulatory requirement. Never has t he need for HSE management systems and the alignment between operators and service companies&rsquo\; HSE MS been more critical.
Additionally, companies grow by acquisition and organically. In the case of acquisition s there are typically different HSE policies, management systems and cultu res. True continuous improvement can only take place when the two cultures , and the tools used to drive those cultures, are harmonized. Any system m ust be both robust yet flexible enough to adjust to changing regulatory an d business requirements.
This paper reviews the experience of a maj or oilfield service provider in harmonizing several HSE management systems , from both prior independently operating divisions and a major acquisitio n. This harmonization includes consolidation and alignment of standards an d best practices across multiple product lines, manufacturing, research an d development, as well as operations and maintenance. Timing allowed the o rganization to also ensure the alignment with new and existing regulatory requirements, industry standards, and client expectations globally.
The new regulations require the ability to demonstrate employee competenc e in assigned tasks. To ensure alignment with the enterprise competence ma nagement program when assessing competence for HSE-related tasks, HSE trai ning professionals worked side by side with HSE subject matter expert prof essionals during the harmonization process.
Use of process improvem ent teams consisting of HSE professionals from varied geographic operation al units and business segments ensured a comprehensive review of client an d government requirements, as well as incorporation of cultural and busine ss needs. Finalization of the HSE MS operational controls included review by business leaders expected to implement the harmonized HSE management sy stem. Providing them the opportunity to have input into the process is cru cial to their ownership and support of the final product.
