1 Summary

The International Association of Oil & Gas Producers (OGP) has been collecting exploration and production related safety incident data from member companies since 1985. The data col-lected are input directly to the OGP global safety database, which is the largest database of safety performance in the industry.

The principal purpose of the data collection and analysis is to record the global health and safety performance of the exploration and production industry each year. The annual reports provide trend analysis, benchmarking and the identification of areas and activities in which efforts should be focused to bring about the greatest improvements.

The OGP’s incident reporting system covers worldwide exploration and production (E&P) operations, both onshore and offshore, and includes incidents involving both Company and Contractor employees. Members’ incident data recorded on the Report Forms country by coun-try are consolidated and analysed in order to compute the frequency and severity of accidents and illnesses occurring in E&P operations by region, country, function and company. A code is used to preserve company anonymity.

There are two main changes to the 2006 data request:

The category “other” has been replaced by “construction”. The new definition is:Construction is provided to record all major construction, fabrication activities and also disassembly, removal and disposal (decommissioning) at the end of the facility life. Factory construction of process plant, yard construction of structures, offshore installation, hook-up and commissioning, and removal of redundant process facilities are all examples to be included under this heading.Third party reporting: Incidents in which there are only third party fatalities should be reported on Report 1, with details provided in report 2. This third party information will be used internally within OGP to identify learning opportunities.

Changes that were introduced in 2005 are:

More detailed information with respect to fatal incidentsA breakdown of LWDCs by categoryData relating to motor vehicle crashesImproved data concerning 3rd party only fatal incidents the aim being to allow the industry to learn more from the data reported to OGP.

A new section has been added to the user guide at Appendix 5 listing frequently asked ques-tions.

It is recognised that for the 2006 data, many organisations will not have the systems in place to report the additional information outline above. However it is hoped that organisations will put into place the systems necessary to collect such data in future years. In the meantime organi-sations will be able to provide data in a similar level of detail as provided in previous years.

This Guide has been developed to assist Members in completing their annual health and safety data return. It supersedes OGP Report № 375.

2 Structure of the reporting system

Organisations are requested to provide their occupational injury and illness data using 5 report forms:

Report 1/1a: occupational injuriesReport 2: fatal incidentsReport 3: significant incidentsReport 4: occupational illnessesReport 5: Motor Vehicle Crashes

Report 1 is designed for reporting all recordable incidents (injury related). Recordable incidents are those which result in a fatality, an injury requiring time off work or a restriction in the work performed, or an injury requiring medical treatment.

Report 1a is used to provide additional information concerning lost workday cases.

Note 1: In the past, organisations were requested to classify certain occupational illnesses as occupational injuries, and report them using the Report 1 form. From 2001 onwards, organisations were requested to report all occupational illnesses using the Report 4 form. As part of the 2006 data request, organisations will be asked to indicate whether they collect occupational illness data, and whether they have been able to report such data using the Report 4 form.

Note 2: A fatal incident that involved only 3rd party fatalities should be entered here with details given in report 2.

Report 2 is used to provide additional information concerning occupational injury related fatali-ties. (Details of occupational illness related fatalities should be reported in Report 4.) Wherever a fatality is indicated in Report 1, details should be entered in Report 2.

Report 3 is used to provide information on significant incidents other than fatalities, which have the potential for serious consequences; they need not be recordable incidents.

Report 4 is used for reporting occupation illnesses.

Report 5 is used for the reporting of Vehicle Related Crashes

Where available, a separate Report 1, 4 and 5 should be completed for each country in which the reporting Company has E&P operations and for each category (company personnel onshore and offshore and for Contractor personnel onshore and offshore).

The five report forms are reproduced in Appendix 1 of this report.

A glossary of terms is provided in Appendix 3.

3 Reporting process and timescales

Members’ representatives were requested, during December 2006, to nominate a contact person, who will have individual responsibility for submitting the 2006 health and safety incident data to OGP by the deadline date of 1st March 2007.

The preferred means of submitting data to OGP is through the use of the web-based data entry system. Alternatively, organisations can submit data by completing pre-prepared Excel forms. Finally data will be accepted in hardcopy format. Depending on which data submission option an organisation wishes to use, additional guidance will be provided relevant to that option.

All health and safety performance data should be submitted as early as possible after the end of the reporting year, and by 1st March 2007 at the very latest. If the deadline is likely to be missed, please contact Wendy Poore immediately:

Wendy PooreOGP, 209-215 Blackfriars RoadLondon SE1 8NL, United KingdomTelephone : +44 (0) 20 7633 0272Facsimile : +44 (0) 20 7633 2350Email: [email protected]

Company data received by the Secretariat will be logged and reviewed for completeness. The Secretariat will contact the Company nominee if any questions arise.

Data submitted after 1st March 2007 will be accepted and analysed for the report at the discretion of the OGP Secretariat.

A consolidated Safety Performance Report for 2006 will be produced as early as possible after all data returns are received from reporting Members, and in normal circumstances by mid year.

4 Instructions for data submission

4.1Keydefinitions

An occupational injury is any injury such as a cut, fracture, sprain, amputation, etc which results from a work related activity or from an exposure involving a single incident in the work environ-ment, such as deafness from explosion, one-time chemical exposure, back disorder from a slip/trip, insect or snake bite. Report Forms 1 and 2 should be used to report injury related incidents and fatalities.

An occupational illness is any abnormal condition or disorder other than one resulting from an occupational injury caused by exposure to environmental factors associated with employment. Occupational illness may be caused by inhalation, absorption, ingestion of or direct contact with the hazard as well as exposure to physical and psychological hazards. It will generally result from prolonged or repeated exposure. Report Form 4 should be used to report illness related incidents and fatalities. Examples of occupational illness are given in OGP report № 290 Health performance indicators, published June 1999 and in Section 4.5 of this report.

A Company employee is a person employed by and on the payroll of the reporting Company, including corporate and management personnel specifically involved in E&P. Persons employed under short-service contracts are included as Company employees provided they are paid directly by the Company.

A Contractor employee is a person employed by a Contractor or Contractor’s Sub-Contractor(s) who is directly involved in execution of prescribed work under a contract with the reporting Company.

A Third Party is a person with no business relation with the company or contractor.

Work Related ActivityAll incidents that occur in work-related activities are reportable and are to be included in returns if the incident results in an occupational injury or illness that is more serious than requiring simple first aid.

A work-related activity is an activity in a work environment, which is or ought to be subject to management controls.

Injuries incurred on or off company or contractor premises, whilst ‘off duty’ should not be reported unless they are work related or subject to (or ought to be subject to) management con-trols. The exception is when the injury owes directly to the activities of other personnel who are at work.

The following Company and Contractor activities are considered work-related since they should be subject to management control.

Company work-related activitiesAll work by Company personnel, including attendance at courses, conferences and Company-organised events, business travel, field visits or any other activity or presence expected by the employer.

Contractor work-related activitiesAll work by Contractor personnel:

on Company premises, andon non-Company premises which are or ought to be subject to Company management con-trols applied through contractual terms, and including the same activities as listed above if they are executed on behalf of the Company.

The second category would include, for example, fabrication by a Contractor of an assembly or construction under a specific contract where fabrication/construction takes place in a desig-nated area set aside for that work.

Exceptions to the second category will typically be where Contractor services are not dedicated to the sole benefit of the Company, eg:

factory manufacture of components together with components for others;construction at Contractor’s fabrication/construction site shared by others;delivery of purchased goods from a supplier to Company locations by a Contractor other than purpose-built assemblies and plants.

In 2007 the OGP Safety Committee will further evaluate creating two categories for the Con-struction function – one for construction/fabrication works under Company HSE manage-ment controls and one for construction/fabrication works under Contractor HSE management controls.

For reporting purposes, Sub-Contractor personnel are to be treated as if they were Contractor personnel and work-related injuries reported as Contractor incidents.

Only work related to mainstream E&P operations should be included. This includes LNG plants. Data on incidents in Member subsidiary companies dealing with renewable energy sources, coal, minerals, and other fields should not be reported even though they are considered as upstream.

Onshore refers to all activities and operations that take place within a landmass, including those on swamps, rivers and lakes. Land-to-land aircraft operations are counted as onshore, even though flights are over water.

Offshore refers to all activities and operations that take place at sea, including activities in bays, in major inland seas, such as the Caspian Sea, or in other inland seas directly connected to oceans. Incidents including transportation of people and equipment from shore to the offshore location, either by vessel or helicopter, should be recorded as “offshore”.

Strictly speaking, the categorisation under onshore or offshore refers to the physical location of the incident, and not to an individual’s normal place of work. However, where this is administra-tively difficult, it is acceptable to record an incident as happening at the location where the work hours are recorded, even though the incident happened elsewhere eg on a visit. For example, a mechanic who normally works onshore is called offshore for a repair job lasting 2 days. Whilst offshore, the mechanic suffers an injury resulting in a lost work day. If the mechanic’s hours are counted as onshore hours even though he/she was physically offshore, then the LWDC should also be counted as an onshore incident.

Joint VenturesIn the case of joint ventures operated by Member companies, incident data should be included as part of the overall company reporting.

For joint ventures NOT operated by a Member company, incident data should be reported only if it would not otherwise be included in the OGP data submissions - ie if the joint venture operator is not able to submit incident data to OGP for that year. This is to avoid error due to duplication of information. Note: OGP encourages incident reporting from non-members in order that the database is as representative of industry activity as possible.

Where joint venture data are being separately reported to OGP, Members should only submit incident reports for their own personnel who are involved in representing their interests as non-operator.

Third Party ReportingIncidents in which there are only third party fatalities should be reported on Report 1, with details provided in report 2. This third party information will be used internally within OGP to identify learning opportunities.

4.2Report1–OccupationalInjuries

Separate report forms are to be completed for:

Company personnel OnshoreCompany personnel OffshoreContractor personnel OnshoreContractor Personnel Offshore

Field DescriptionsContact Name/Title: Company nominated contact.

Year: Year to which the data relates.

Company: Parent company submitting data.

JV Operator: When reporting incident data as a partner but non-operator in a Joint Venture Operation, enter the name of the JV Operator company. Otherwise, leave blank.

Country: Country data relates to

Lost Workday Case (LWDC) Days: Indicate whether the number of days lost following a LWDC is collected and reported.

Restricted Workday Cases (RWDCs): Indicate whether RWDCs are collected and reported (ie as a category separate from LWDCs and Medical Treatment Cases).

RWDC Days: Indicate whether the number of days lost following a RWDC are collected and reported.

Medical Treatment Cases: Indicate whether the number of Medical Treatment Cases are col-lected and reported.

Function: Entries should be made separately for each different function, defined as follows:

Exploration covers geophysical, seismographic and geological activities, inclusive of admin-istrative and engineering aspects, maintenance, materials supply, and transportation of per-sonnel and equipment.Exploration drilling is to be included under “drilling”.Production covers petroleum and natural gas production operations, including adminis-trative and engineering aspects, minor construction, repairs, maintenance and servicing, materials supply and transportation of personnel and equipment. It covers all mainstream production operations including wireline. It does not cover production drilling or worko-ver.Drilling includes all exploration, appraisal and production drilling and workover as well as their administrative, engineering, construction, materials supply and transportation aspects. It includes site preparation, rigging up and down and restoration of the drilling site upon work completion.

Construction is provided to record all major construction, fabrication activities and also disassembly, removal and disposal (decommissioning) at the end of the facility life. Factory construction of process plant, yard construction of structures, offshore installation, hook-up and commissioning, and removal of redundant process facilities are all examples to be included under this heading, as defined in ‘Contractor work related’ paragraph above.“Unspecified” should be used for entry of data where no classification of the activity into exploration, drilling, production or construction is available. Corporate finance and human resources staff would normally be reported within this category.

Injuries occurring in seismic and drilling camps or on offshore platforms during off-duty hours need not be included unless they are work-related, ie they are caused by other personnel who are at work.

Number employees: Enter the average number of full-time and part-time employees involved in E&P, calculated on a full-time basis, during the reporting year. Two part-time employees can be treated as one full-time employee. If data are not available, it is acceptable to divide the recorded worked hours by 2000 to derive the average number of employees.

Hours worked (000’s): Hours must be reported in multiples of one thousand and should be rounded to the nearest thousand. An entry is required for hours for each row of data you enter. If the whole row is empty or populated with ‘0’ (zeros) the entry will be accepted.

For onshore activities, actual hours worked, including overtime hours, should be recorded. The hours worked by an individual will generally be about 2000 per year.For offshore activities, hours worked should be calculated on the basis of a 12-hour workday. Average hours worked in a year will generally lie between 1600 and 2300 per person and will depend upon the on/off shift ratio.A person whose normal place of work is onshore but who occasionally visits offshore may have all working hours booked to ‘onshore’, but then any injury occurring whilst offshore should be recorded as an onshore incident, ie in the same location as working hours are counted.

№ Fatal Incidents: Enter the number of fatal incidents in the reporting year for the selected category. For each fatal incident, details should be entered in Report 2: Fatal Incidents.

Note: A fatal incident that involved only 3rd Party fatalities should be entered here with details given in Report 2.

№ Company/Contractor/Third Party Fatalities: Enter the number of company/contractor/third party fatalities that resulted from incidents in the reporting year. Where the date of death of a fatally injured person is in the calendar year after the incident occurs, the death should nev-ertheless be included as a fatality for the year of the incident. For each fatality, details should be entered in Report 2: Fatal Incidents. Provision is made in Report 2 for the reporting of related 3rd Party fatalities.

№ Medical Cases: If medical treatment cases (MTC) are collected and reported, enter the number of MTCs in the reporting year. Medical treatment cases are those cases not severe enough to be reported as fatalities, lost work day cases or restricted work day cases (where these cases are collected), but are more severe than requiring simple first aid treatment.

Further guidance on cases that qualify as medical treatment cases is given in Appendix 2.

Note: The number of total recordable incidents is the sum of fatalities, lost work day cases, restricted work day cases, and medical treatment cases.

№ Lost Work Day Cases: The number of lost work day cases (LWDC) is the number of non-fatal cases that involve a person being unfit to perform any work on any day after the occurrence

of the occupational injury. “Any day” includes rest days, weekend days, leave days, public holi-days or days after ceasing employment.

№ of Days Unfit for Work: If the number of days unfit for work (LWDC Days) is collected and reported, enter the sum total of calendar days (consecutive or otherwise) after the days on which the occupational injuries occurred, where persons reported under LWDC (above) were unfit for work and did not work.

Example3 employees were severely injured and unfit for work after their accidents. Employee A was unfit for 2 working days, a weekend and 2 further days. Employee B was unfit for 3 weeks, and Employee C was fit for work the day after the injury but thereafter not fit for the three following days.

A was unfit for work for 2+2+2 days = 6 daysB was unfit for work for 3x7 days = 21 daysC was unfit for work for 3 daysNumber of days unfit for work = 30 days

If LWDC days are reported at least one day must be reported for each lost workday case (LWDC). Where absence from work extends beyond the year end, the actual or estimated days unfit for work in the following year should be added to those for the reporting year in computing the number of days unfit for work.Do not include days unfit for work between a fatal incident and the date of death.

№ Restricted Workday Cases: The number of restricted work day cases (RWDC) is the number of cases that do not result in a fatality or a lost work day case but do result in a person being unfit for full performance of the regular job on any day after the occupational injury. Work performed might be:

an assignment to a temporary job;part-time work at the regular job;working full-time in the regular job but not performing all the usual duties of the job.

№ Days Restricted Work: Days counting as restricted work are defined as for a lost work day case (LWDC above).

If a value has been given for RWDC and data are collected and reported by your company for the number of days of restricted work (RWDC Days), enter the sum total number of days of restricted work (RWDC Days). These should be calculated in the same manner as for lost work day cases (LWDC above).If RWDC days are reported at least one day must be reported for each restricted workday case (RWDC). If this is not the case a validation error will occur and the entry will not be accepted.

4.3Report1A–CategorisationofLWDCs

Enter only the number of Lost Work Day Cases (LWDCs) reported related to each of the cate-gories presented. The number of LWDCs reported here should be equal to the number reported in Report 1.

Field DescriptionsAs Report 1 (section 4.2 of this user guide) with the addition of:

Injury CategoriesAir transport injuries are injuries caused by incidents involving aircraft, either fixed wing or helicopters. Injuries caused by accidents on the ground at airports are classified in one of the other categories.

Caught between includes injuries where the injured person(s) is crushed or similarly injured between machinery moving parts or other objects, caught between rolling tubulars, crushed between a ship and a dock, or similar incidents.

Water related and Electrical are self explanatory.

Explosions or burns are injuries caused by burns, toxic gases, asphyxiation or other effects of fires and explosions. ‘Explosion’ means a rapid combustion, not an overpressure. For example, a person hit by flying debris from a vessel explosion is classed in the category ‘struck by’.

Falls are injuries caused by incidents where a person falls off, over or onto something.

Struck by describes incidents where injury results from being hit by moving equipment and machinery, or by flying or falling objects.

Vehicle incident are injuries caused by incidents involving motorized vehicles designed for trans-porting people and goods over land, eg cars, buses, trucks. Pedestrians struck by a vehicle are classified as vehicle incidents. Incidents from a mobile crane would only be vehicle incidents if the crane were being moved between locations.

Other is the category to specify where the injury cannot be logically classed under other head-ings, for example a terrorist shooting.

Unknown is self explanatory.

4.6Report4–OccupationalIllnesses

Occupational illnesses should be submitted on the Report 4 form.

The definition of what constitutes an occupational illness is given in the Glossary of Terms at the back of this guide. For additional information refer to OGP report № 290, Health perform-ance indicators, published June 1999.

Only new cases (incidence) are reportable, ie new cases diagnosed during the reporting year. Existing cases are reportable if diagnosed for the first time during the reporting year. It is useful to keep records on existing cases (prevalence) as well but these are not reportable as part of this system. Exacerbation or recurrence of existing occupational or existing general illnesses is reportable if caused by new exposures at work. Cases should be reported whether or not they result in time lost from work.

An employee’s physical or mental defect or pre-existing physical or mental condition does not affect the reportability of a subsequently contracted occupational illness. If in such circum-stances an illness is caused or mainly caused by exposures at work, the case should be reported without regard to the employee’s pre-existing physical or mental condition.

Definitions are as for Report 1, with the following exceptions:

№ Fatalities: The total number of Company’s employees or Contractor’s employees who died as a result of an occupational illness.

Permanent Disabilities: Persons having an incapacity to work due to health problems. The inca-pacity may be partial, so that permanent disability may be used both for people who have taken early retirement for health reasons and for working people with a chronic disease or injury.

№ Lost Workday Cases (LWDC): Any work related illness other than a fatality which results in a person being unfit for work on any day during the reporting year where the illness was diag-nosed during that year. “Any day” includes rest days, weekend days, leave days, public holidays or days after ceasing employment.

№ Restricted Workday Cases (RWDC): Any work-related illness, other than a fatality or lost work day case, which results in a person being unfit for full performance of the regular job on any day during the reporting year, where the illness was diagnosed during that year. Work per-formed might be:

an assignment to a temporary job;part-time work at the regular job;working full-time in the regular job but not performing all the usual duties of the job.

Where no meaningful restricted work is being performed, the incident should be recorded as a lost workday case (LWDC).

Note: At least 1 LWDC Day must be entered for each LWDC reported. Similarly at least 1 RWDC Day must be entered for each RWDC.

Other Illnesses (not L/RWDC): The number of illnesses without Lost Time or Restricted Work.

Occupational Illnesses CategoryIdentification of an occupational illness may be made by an occupational physician or any other competent person. To assist in the categorisation of an occupational illness, some examples are provided below:

Appendix 2 – Medical treatment cases

A medical treatment case is defined as an incident other than a fatality, lost work day case or restricted work day case and in which:

Treatment is carried out by a physician or licensed medical personnel (or would normally have been carried out under the supervision of a Doctor).There is an impairment of bodily functions (ie normal use of senses, limbs, etc).There is damage to the physical structure of a nonsuperficial nature (eg fractures).There are complications requiring follow up medical treatment.There was loss of consciousness in the work place. This is a recordable condition and should be included with medical treatment cases.

In general medical treatments are any medical attention which is more serious than just a one time treatment by first aid.

As a guide a “yes” answer to the following questions would be a medical treatment case.

Treatment of infection?Antiseptic during second or subsequent visits to medical personnel?Treatment for second or third degree burns?Application of sutures (stitches)?Application of butterfly adhesive dressings?Removal of foreign body embedded in eye?Complicated removal of foreign bodies from wound?Use of prescription medications?Soaking therapy (hot or cold) during second or subsequent visits to medical personnel?Cutting away of dead skin (surgical debridement)?Application of heat therapy during second or subsequent visits?Whirlpool bath therapy during second or subsequent visits to medical personnel?Positive X-ray diagnosis (fractures, broken bones, etc)?Admission to a hospital for treatment (more than observation)?

Note: A MTC reported under the OSHA reporting requirements should also be reported to OGP.

Appendix 3 – Glossary of terms

Caught BetweenInjury where injured person is crushed or similarly injured between machinery moving parts or other objects, caught between rolling tubulars or objects being moved, crushed between a ship and a dock, or similar incidents.

Company EmployeeAny person employed by and on the payroll of the reporting Company, including corporate and management personnel specifically involved in exploration and production. Persons employed under short-service contracts are included as Com-pany employees provided they are paid directly by the Com-pany.

ConstructionMajor construction, fabrication activities and also disas-sembly, removal and disposal (decommissioning) at the end of the facility life. Includes factory construction of process plant, yard construction of structures, offshore installation, hook-up and commissioning, and removal of redundant process facilities.

ContractorA ‘Contractor’ is defined as an individual or organization performing work for the reporting company, following verbal or written agreement. ‘Sub-contractor’ is synonymous with ‘Contractor’.

Contractor EmployeeAny person employed by a Contractor or Contractor’s Sub-Contractor(s) who is directly involved in execution of pre-scribed work under a contract with the reporting Company.

DrillingAll exploration, appraisal and production drilling and work-over as well as their administrative, engineering, construc-tion, materials supply and transportation aspects. It includes site preparation, rigging up and down and restoration of the drilling site upon work completion. Drilling includes ALL exploration, appraisal and production drilling.

ExplorationGeophysical, seismographic and geological operations, including their administrative and engineering aspects, con-struction, maintenance, materials supply, and transportation of personnel and equipment; excludes drilling.

Explosion or BurnIncident caused by burns, toxic gases, asphyxiation or other effects of fires and explosions. ‘Explosion’ means a rapid com-bustion, not an overpressure.

FallIncident caused by falling off, over or onto something.

Fatal Accident Rate (FAR)The number of fatalities per 100,000,000 (100 million) man-hours worked.

Fatal Incident Rate (FIR)The number of fatal incidents per 100,000,000 (100 million) manhours.

First Aid CaseCases that are not sufficiently serious to be reported as medi-cal treatment or more serious cases but nevertheless require minor first aid treatment, eg. dressing on a minor cut, removal of a splinter from a finger. First aid cases are not recordable incidents.

Hours WorkedThe actual ‘hours worked’, including overtime hours, are recorded in the case of onshore operations. The hours worked by an individual will generally be about 2000 per year.For offshore workers, the ‘hours worked’ are calculated on a 12-hour work day. Consequently average manhours worked per year will vary from 1600 to 2300 hours per person depending upon the on/off shift ratio. Vacations and leaves are excluded.

Hours Worked in Year (000’s)Hours worked must be reported in multiples of one thousand and should be rounded to the nearest thousand.

Lost Time Injury (LTI)A fatality or lost work day case. The number of LTIs is the sum of fatalities and lost work day cases.

Lost Time Injury Frequency (LTIF)The number of lost time injuries (fatalities + lost work day cases) per 1,000,000 manhours worked.

Lost Work Day Case (LWDC)Any work related injury or illness, other than a fatal injury, which results in a person being unfit for work on any day after the day of occurrence of the occupational injury. “Any day” includes rest days, weekend days, leave days, public holidays or days after ceasing employment.

Medical Cause of DeathThis is the cause of death given on the death certificate. Where two types of causes are provided, such as “pulmonary oedema” caused by “inhalation of hot gases from a fire”, both are recorded.

26


© 2007 OGP

Medical Treatment Case (MTC)Cases that are not severe enough to be reported as fatalities or lost work day cases or restricted work day cases but are more severe than requiring simple first aid treatment.Note: A MTC reported under the OSHA reporting require-ments should also be reported to OGP.

Number of Days Unfit for WorkThe sum total of calendar days (consecutive or otherwise) after the days on which the occupational injuries occurred, where the persons involved were unfit for work and did not work.

Number of EmployeesAverage number of full-time and part-time employees involved in exploration and production, calculated on a full-time basis, during the reporting year.

Number of FatalitiesThe total number of Company’s employees and/or Contrac-tor’s employees who died as a result of an incident. ‘Delayed’ deaths that occur after the incident are to be included if the deaths were a direct result of the incident. For example, if a fire killed one person outright, and a second died three weeks later from lung damage caused by the fire, both are reported. In some cases, a delayed fatality occurs in the next calendar year after the incident. For example, if the above fire occurred on December 21, 2006, the second death from it might occur in January 2007. All fatalities from an incident are included in the report for the year of that incident. In the above case, the fatality in 2007 is reported with the 2006 data.

Occupational IllnessAny abnormal condition or disorder, other than one resulting from an occupational injury, caused by exposure to environ-mental factors associated with employment. Occupational illness may be caused by inhalation, absorption, ingestion of, or direct contact with the hazard, as well as exposure to physical and psychological hazards. It will generally result from prolonged or repeated exposure.Examples of occupational illness are given in OGP report no. 6.78/290 “Health Performance Indicators”, published June 1999. Such examples include noise induced hearing loss; respiratory disease such as asbestosis, asthma; skin disease such as contact dermatitis; upper limb and neck disorder and mental ill-health.

Occupational InjuryAny injury such as a cut, fracture, sprain, amputation, etc, which results from a work related activity or from an expo-sure involving a single incident in the work environment, such as deafness from explosion, one-time chemical expo-sure, back disorder from a slip / trip, insect or snake bite.

Offshore WorkAll activities and operations that take place at sea, including activities in bays, in major inland seas, such as the Caspian Sea, or in other inland seas directly connected to oceans. Incidents including transportation of people and equipment from shore to the offshore location, either by vessel or heli-copter, should be recorded as “offshore”.

Onshore WorkAll activities and operations that take place within a land-mass, including those on swamps, rivers and lakes. Land-to-land aircraft operations are counted as onshore, even though flights are over water.

ProductionPetroleum and natural gas producing operations, includ-ing their administrative and engineering aspects, minor construction, repairs, maintenance and servicing, materials supply, and transportation of personnel and equipment. It covers all mainstream production operations including wire-line. It does not cover production drilling and workover.

Restricted Work Day Case (RWDC)Any work-related injury other than a fatality or lost work day case which results in a person being unfit for full per-formance of the regular job on any day after the occupational injury. Work performed might be:

an assignment to a temporary job;part-time work at the regular job;working full-time in the regular job but not perform-ing all the usual duties of the job.

Where no meaningful restricted work is being performed, the incident should be recorded as a lost work day case (LWDC).

Struck ByIncidents where injury results from being hit by moving equipment and machinery, or by flying or falling objects.

Third PartyA person with no business relation with the company or con-tractor.

Vehicle IncidentIncidents involving motorised vehicles designed for trans-porting people and goods over land eg cars, buses, trucks. Pedestrians struck by a vehicle are classified as vehicle inci-dents. Incidents from a mobile crane would only be vehicle incidents if the crane were being moved between locations.

Work-Related InjurySee Occupational Injury.

Appendix 4 – Frequently Asked Questions

Security Under what circumstances should security related incidents be reported?

Security related incidents (eg fatalities associated with an illegal detention of staff) should be reported where they are work related, or where there is, or ought to be, management controls in place to reduce the possibility of the incident occurring.

SuicidesUnder what circumstances should suicides be reported?

It is not expected that suicides will be reported, however if an organisation deems it to be work related it can be reported using Forms 1 and 2.

OSHA vs OGPWhat are the differences between reporting under the OSHA and OGP requirements?

The main difference between OGP and OSHA reporting requirements relates to the need for E&P organisations to report incidents associated with their own personnel, contractor and sub-contractor personnel. The focus of the OSHA reporting requirements relates to company per-sonnel. Additionally, OGP encourages the reporting of 3rd party fatalities.

With respects to the reporting of medical treatment cases, the OGP and OSHA are aligned, such that a MTC reported under OSHA should also be reported to OGP.

There are some differences in how OGP and OSHA establish work relatedness with the OGP requirements being more inclusive.

Severe multiple fractures

A Fast Crew Boat (FCB) was moored bow to an offshore buoy at sea. Another Standby Boat (SB) was moored stern to stern to it. Weather was calm. At 21.30hrs, the FCB started its engine and conducted propulsion system (water jet) tests whilst still moored. The FCB moved leading to tensioning and subsequent parting of the mooring rope between the two vessels. The parted mooring rope whip-lashed and hit the 2nd Engineer, who was off-duty, onboard the deck of the SB. The 2nd Engineer sustained severe multiple fractures to his right leg and bruises on his forehead. He was given immediate first aid and medevaced to the nearest onshore hospital. After 2 hours of resuscitation by a hospital doctor, he passed away.

• Inadvertent vessel movement during testing of propulsion system • Human error: clutch was inadvertently engaged• No watchman/look-out assigned • FCB Chief Eng did not inform his Captain just prior to starting vessel engine • The only positive feedback available of whether the clutch was engaged or otherwise is via the “Clutch OFF” indicator on bridge control panel which was malfunctioning • The SB crew was not informed of the testing and hence not aware of the hazards related to the FCB propulsion testing. Thus unable to exercise Duty to STOP. • Whilst all crewmembers have formal certifications, competency of the FCB key personnel is deemed lacking. • Inadequate procedure for vessel inspection and acceptance, in particular after major repair • Inadequate procedure related to mooring configuration of multiple vessels at offshore mooring buoys • Inconsistent management practices between primary versus secondary marine logistics • Lack of enforcement and involvement in management of subcontractor • Low hazard awareness and high tolerance for non-compliances.

Communicated initial findings across the region and issued Safety Alert on • Testing of vessel propulsion system (other then for pre-departure checks) shall not be carried out whilst moored. • All vessels to conduct re-tests of the following safety-critical systems for full functionality: propulsion controls, emergency stops, bridge controls and indicators. • Vessel’s inspection and acceptance by a competent team shall be conducted for initial mobilization as well as after every major repair. • Communication with all affected parties shall be established prior to starting any risk activity • “Duty to Stop Work” must be exercised whenever and before tasks are carried out without prior hazard assessments/communication • The danger of mooring ropes under tension and the importance of effective site communication to be reiterated at toolbox meetings. • To hold a Regional Marine Workshop of marine experts to cascade learnings and address/decide on key issues related to the underlying causes. • To commit resources to effectively manage the totality of marine operations, which are responsive to the tight vessel market. • To support and consider as global standard, recommendations arising from a planned review of mooring practices and alternative mooring ropes (which may be costlier).
