Statoil DROPS Perspective

Bjorn Oystein Holst Statoil

Within Statoil, around 25% of all incidents are about dropped objects and these continue to happen… but we can turn the trend. Statoil have an initiative that focuses on leadership on site. Statoil do investigate all incidents to ensure that the correct learnings are achieved and shared. Looking at incidents over the years, the same incident findings are found over and over however they are having fewer serious consequences.  Therefore, a continued focus on prevented Dropped objects should be a high focus. Statoil supports the standardisation of Dropped objects prevention in the industry for the common good. Lasting message was the need to remain vigilant and open to new insight and new methods.
