Incident Investigation in the Oilfield

OGS-56.2

In a perfect world, there would be no workplace accidents. Unfortunately in the real world injuries, property damage, work disruption and near miss incidents will happen from time to time. When they do, it is important to have a procedure in place to determine what happened, how and why it happened, and how to prevent it from happening again. This course is designed to provide workers with valuable information about accident and incident investigations in the oilfield and how they make the workplace safer. When this course is over the learner should have demonstrated the ability to recognize the goal of an in-house incident investigation, and identify circumstances that warrant an investigation and the proper procedure for conducting or participating in an incident investigation. This awareness-level course is designed for all employees working on field sites in the oil and gas industry.
