SUMMARY - WHAT DID WE START WITH?

Abandoned wellsite – sand covered. Concrete slabs in wellhead area. Upgraded with geomembrane in selected areas and then covered with gravel. Erosion of slopes.

Gravel access road – only a minor upgrade needed.

Limited resources – all activities tailor - made.

MAIN DEVELOPMENT AREAS:

Enthusiastic and resourceful operational team, however no operational safety system set and operable.

Prepare the facility for a time - limited operation

Established relations with the local community.

FACILITY AND RESOURCES

Set common set set of rules fro the contractors to follow while on the site.

Re-establish community communication ways – introducing new company.

HSE OPERATIONAL CHALLENGES

Mutual principles agreed by 10+ Contractors- mostly foreign;

EXTERNAL:

Crews commuting to well site – on narrow, slippery and unlit roads – used by local drivers as well (also timber cargo).

Logistics: congestion at the well site – with very limited truck / rest parking space available. Different travelling times

INTERNAL

Billingual safety documents / operational forms.

Operational planning and communication – also on HSE.

Traffic management. Crews aware of changing weather conditions.

Mitigation:

Operations by numerous services. Limited

storage / maneuver space; Adverse weather

conditions; Support services perfomed by

independent local contractors; Local

roustabouts

Satisfying Polish legal requirments: Mining

Enterprise Manager representing the site to

external authiorities – inside - supporting

San Leon crew.

SAFETY PERFORMANCE - COMPLETIONS

Aspirational target ZERO INCIDENTS met - ca. 25 000 manhours worked without a serious incident / HPI – by numerous service companies; lots of simultaneous operations.

Safety system established - based on best industry practices.

Near misses were reported, recorded and investigated. Main types: operational practices – mostly lifting ops, equipment failures , but also transportation issues – including those outside the site (side / access road – gravel surface).

GENERAL REMARKS:

Communicative, safety aware, and experienced crews, strong observance of safety regulations.

Documents: safety certificates / mediclas presented and available: great job on supervision side.

No protests from local community.

FACTS:

20

SOME OPERATIONAL RULES TO FOLLOW

Security staff responsible for POB (doubled for frac team)

Documents: medical and safety certificates available and registered by HSE / KRZ;

Fire fighting equipment: provide valid adequately to own operations (and submit a plan of its positioning as well).

Elevated attention on adequate PPE and site surface conditions.

Team Leaders: Direct supervision and responsibility on your team / equipment safe operation.

Shared resources: Forkilft / manlift / crane load mounting: use - subject to planning and availability. So contractors’ certificates in the matter are of value as well.

HSE Rep – on -site rather than in the office. Supporting role for organizing activities.

Barriers: language / abilites / experience – but the staff 99 % competent and aware.

Water handling and storage / pressure jobs – winter risk included.

COMMUNITY RELATIONS

•Show your respect to local community

• Ensure the public has its say –

nominate a local representative

• Structurize your communication

• Lead discussions based on facts, not

opinions

• Explain the operational process and

your priorities

• Listen to comments, communicate

your responses

• Proactive actions may be of great

value

31

CLOSING REMARKS

1. Communication, awareness and supervision as limited resources

available;

2. Safety over operational goals – present example and made crew

follow;

3. System? Rules? It is YOU where the safety starts from! Rest is

tools – for reference.

SAFETY

ENVIRONMENT

1. Can be organized safely and in a responsive manner – depending on

local conditions;

2. Waste and noise seem to be greatest challenges: water does require

management;

COMMUNITY

Want to be well perceived – communicate locally and have ideas and

resources to follow.
