CONFERENCE PROGRAM
Wednesday, 26 September 2012
07.00 Conference Registration, Coffee Service & Open Exhibition
Sponsored by: KCA DEUTAG Drilling GmbH
08.30 Welcoming & Opening Remarks
Stephen A. Colville, President & CEO, IADC
Keynote presentation: Kieron McFadyen, Executive Vice President Safety & Environment, Royal Dutch Shell Plc.
09.00 Risk Management and Process Safety
Session Chair: Gordon Graham, Vice President, Wells HSE, Shell International
A Regulators View on Principles for a Robust Approach to Barrier Management: Vidar Kristensen, R&D Coordinator, Petroleum Safety Authority Norway
Barriers and barrier management has been a main priority for the Petroleum Safety Authority (PSA) in Norway for several years. PSA’s view on principles for a robust approach to barrier management will be presented. The principles are based on the risk management process given in ISO 31000 on risk management, and the importance of a barrier strategy making involved parties capable of understanding the risks and the established barriers. Some definitions will also be given due to the variety of definitions in the literature and in the everyday talk when addressing barriers and barrier management.
Process Safety is an Industry Leadership Issue: Is HSE the Right Department to Handle it?: Vivek Bhatnagar, Director, Phillip Townsend Associates, Inc.
In the new world of drilling, there is a need for a massive perceptual shift in the way process safety is commonly understood and practiced. Before expecting wider acceptance, the industry leadership first needs to be clear between the boundaries that differentiate personnel safety from process safety. It needs to rise above its common misconceptions and lack of awareness by having a deeper understanding of the subject. While personnel safety is important, the leadership needs to realize process safety is vital to not just an individual company but indeed the entire industry’s overall wellbeing. Treating it as an HSE function only highlights the lack of understanding of the subject and could potentially hurt more than help. A better appreciation of the subject would help identify the right stakeholders leading to improved accountability and adherence. This would lead to overall safer and more profitable operations.
10.00 Networking Break & Open Exhibition
Sponsored by: KCA DEUTAG Drilling GmbH
10:30 Process Safety
Moderator: Joep Beijer, Senior Vice President Europe, Russia, Kazakhastan, KCA DEUTAG Drilling GmbH
Process Safety has become a common term in our industry in recent years, but how well is it understood? The panelists will bring this subject to life through the lens of the operator and the drilling contractor. Management systems, major accident hazards and ongoing actions will be presented on the subject as we explore what process safety may mean to management and front line workers now and in the future. A healthy discussion is assured in the open forum nature of the panel – with ample opportunity for the audience to challenge, question and deepen their understanding.
Panelists:
- James Edgar, Performance Improvement Manager, Shell Global Solutions B.V.
- Alan Keilloh, Manager SHEQ, Ensco plc
- Tony Johnson, Senior Corporate Manager, QHSE, Transocean
- Tony Brock, Head of Safety & Operational Risk, Developments Division, BP Exploration
12.00 Luncheon & Open Exhibition
13.30 Leadership
Session Chair: John Karish, Director SHE, Ensco plc
Approachability – The Final Domino: Jeff “Odie” Espenship, Founder/CEO, Target Leadership
Leadership is about sticking to the fundamentals, set expectations and monitor performance. Leaders influence behavior create and maintain the job culture, and the workers will work within the norms of that culture. The “way it is done” must be congruent with “the way it should be done” around here. We do not hire dumb people, yet smart well-trained highly skilled people can do some dumb things. Why? This presentation covers the many factors leaders must face when it comes to what influences work behaviors in the field. As a fighter pilot, I give very concrete examples of what can happen when we get complacent, become distracted, or get over-confident in our ability. Watch for the phrase, “I’ll Be Careful.” Somebody is about to do something dumb, dangerous, or different.
Line of Sight Leadership: Abdullah Embong, HSE Manager – Southeast Asia, Rowandrill Malaysia Sdn. Bhd.
A top-down approach is the most preferred in sustaining motivation but often become stale and incomplete as it typically lacks “Line of Sight” Leadership that carries the effort of being visible, detectable, often seen at site and keep something readily. It was stated, “without light, there would be no sight” and people will not be motivated unless with “stimulus”. Therefore, this presentation shares the sincere effort of Rowan’s highest ranking to supervisory that delivers concrete, practical advice and involvement that can be implemented right away with the goal of translating discordant groups into result-focused teams.
14.30 Networking Break & Open Exhibition
Sponsored by: KCA DEUTAG Drilling GmbH
14.45 Safety Innovation
Session Chair: Nils Romslo, Manager Drilling and Well HSE, Statoil ASA
Drill Floor Machinery & Tubular Handling Safety: Simon Brown, Principal Specialist Inspector, Health & Safety Executive
The paper ‘Drilling machinery – HAZOP for improved safety’ presented at IADC Drilling HSE Europe 2010 Conference & Exhibition in Amsterdam, introduced guidance from HSE/OSD being prepared on the subject of drill floor machinery safety. That guidance has now been published. This paper reviews the new guidance including the international standards referred to on the subject of machinery safety on the drill floor and in tubular handling. The key actions expected from drilling operators on the UKCS (UK Continental Shelf), and from suppliers, designers and integrators of equipment and drilling machinery systems to UKCS installations are highlighted.
Oilfield Product Development for Cold Climates has Unique HSE Challenges: Bethicia Prasek, Chemist IV (Chemical Regulatory Specialist), Schlumberger, Stephen Rabke, Tim Johnson, Ingrid Helland, Steve Smith, M-I SWACO
Challenges of cold climates have many impacts on product development efforts for drilling and completion fluids. Products used to solve performance and delivery problems in the cold climate may inadvertently cause worker safety and environmental issues. Specific examples demonstrate or discuss how awareness of the unique health, safety, and environmental (HSE) challenges of cold climate regions resulted in improved products. Furthermore, the paper describes how consideration of these challenges at the beginning of the product development process can lead to more focus on elimination and substitution rather than the reactive approach, often leading to the use of administrative controls and personal protective equipment (PPE) after the fact.
15.45 Networking Break & Open Exhibition
Sponsored by: KCA DEUTAG Drilling GmbH
16.00 Advanced Event Response
Session Chair: Joe Hurt, Regional Vice President North America and Lead Staff Land HSE Issues, IADC
Managing Emergencies: The Establishment of a Competent Response: David Evans, Global Head of Emergency and Crisis Management, Edi Gittenberger, Managing Director Skills XP, Petrofac Training Services
The value of a system designed to ensure real time access to competent personnel during emergency situations will be highlighted. It will be described how a system based on competency has been developed to deliver access to competent personnel and specialist services in real time.
Technip Case Study: Building and Integrating a Management System to Ensure Business Continuity and Maximise Performance: Dan Vogel, CEO, Enablon, Laurent Mereyde, Security Vice President, Technip
Natural disasters, health crises, technical black outs, terrorist attacks, more than ever, companies are facing events that may disrupt their operations and which daily threaten their business continuity. Insight of experts will be given on how to build a comprehensive Business Continuity Management Information System integrated with risk management and emergency response. A demonstration will be shown how such systems support better decision-making while enhancing the overall performance of a company.
Collaborating to Enhance International Subsea Well Control Capabilities: Klaas van der Plas, Principal Well Engineer Cap and Contain, Subsea Well Response Project, A/S Norske Shell
For the first time on this scale, the world’s leading oil spill response organisation and nine major oil and gas companies are working together to enhance international subsea well incident intervention capabilities. Oil Spill Response Ltd (OSRL) and the Subsea Well Response Project (SWRP) are collaborating to make a new integrated well incident intervention system available to the industry. Designed for a variety of conditions, this system aims to enhance the industry’s capabilities to respond to a subsea well control incident around the world. Companies across the oil and gas industry have the opportunity to benefit from this equipment through a newly formed OSRL subsidiary, part of OSRL Group.
17.30-19.00 Welcoming Reception

08.30 Welcoming & Opening Remarks
Stephen A. Colville, President & CEO, IADC
08.35 HSE Culture
Session Chair: Hamad Al-Kandari, Team Leader (HSE-E&PD), Kuwait Oil Company
Strong Reporting Culture as Stepping Stone to Continuously Drive Safety Performance Improvement: Joe Stough, VP Innovation & Technology, IHS
The presentation will review the leading indicator research findings drawn from analyzing a large energy industry data set. The source of research includes data sets and safety business practices spanning operating sites in over 100 countries involving some global industry leading companies such as ExxonMobil, ConocoPhillips, Shell, Total, OMV, and multiple others. From the analytical research and careful review with industry safety executives and subject matter experts, it was clear that attaining a strong reporting culture is a critical milestone necessary to begin the process of proactively driving safety performance.
Building a Corporate Responsibility Culture within the Drilling Industry: Heather Null, Environment and Corporate Responsibility Manager, Transocean
How do we build a culture around corporate responsibility within a drilling company spread over nine geographical divisions, with more than eighty nationalities and over 18,000 people? Simply put, we don’t build the program, it builds itself and the company lends support.
HSE Culture – Looking in the Mirror: David Crochet, Director, Behavioral Safety & HSE Liftboats, Rick McClaine, Hercules Offshore
A dramatic multi-media presentation that looks at risk tolerance by challenging the audience to observe a day in the life of an average offshore worker while considering all the opportunities to do something different. By looking at how we might plan differently, how we might intervene and change at-risk behaviors and potential situations, we also see the possible outcomes of this remarkable scenario. We have done well to get crews focused on at-risk behaviors, but have not always considered the more cultural issues. This moving look in the mirror shows us that behaviors that cause at-risk behaviors or allow them to continue in others are themselves at-risk behaviors.

10.30 Training & Competency
Session Chair: Tony Brock, Head of Safety & Operational Risk, Developments Division, BP Exploration
Competencies for Dynamic Risk Assessment: Maxine Fawcett, Principal Consultant, Intertek Consulting & Training
While many organizations are likely to recognize and communicate a corporate expectation that frontline workers improve their risk assessments skills, particularly around dynamic risk assessment and situation awareness, few models for developing competence in these areas are available. Building a workforce that is able to continuously look for, assess and manage risk gives organizations access to predictable, reliable and safer operations. A framework of practices and competencies which enable an organization to develop workers in their competence for dynamic risk assessment will be discussed.
The Issue of Maintaining and Growing the Organizations’ Knowledge on the Crucial Time of a Generational Change-Over: Ilidio Franco dos Santos, HSEQ Advisor, Sonangol P&P
Many experienced workers will be approaching retirement age soon with the eminent prospect that many of their amassed experience and knowledge will be forever lost. We need tools and guiding principles of knowledge management to be better prepared for this challenge. By analyzing past and current experiences of organizational knowledge management we will enable responsible managers to leave the conference with a better understanding of what is needed to successfully manage knowledge in their organizations.
A Rough Guide to Being a Smart Drilling Safety Officer: Marco Borzi, Saipem Marine Asset Management (SMAM) QHSE Manager, Craig Leadstone, Lawrence Payne, Saipem S.p.A.
“The Rough Guide to Being a Smart Drilling Safety Officer” has been written by safety officers for safety officers. Its approach is to accept that a great safety officer is an artist not a scientist, someone with a strong aptitude for imagination, inspiration and interpretation. It is hoped that by encouraging participation in its future development the guide will become a repository for useful information, advice and experiences for all of us working within HSE. Preparing our safety officers to work in the right way, the Saipem way!
12.00 Luncheon & Open Exhibition
13.30 Aligning Competency Expectations
Session Chair: Thomas Helmer, Head of Corporate QM/HSE, Senior Director, Maersk Drilling
Globally, What are our Expectations for Well Control Competence?
Currently, multiple organizations are independently working to create a better understanding of well control from well design through the life of the well. The main focus has been on defining competence expectations, improving competence assessment and knowledge retention. The challenge is to forge an understanding between all stakeholders to ensure that the resulting guidelines will be mutually acceptable worldwide.
- Gareth Williams, Chief Well Engineering Manager, BG Group, Chair of the OGP Wells Experts Committee Human Factors, Training & Competency Workgroup
- Mark Denkowski, Vice President – Accreditation & Certification, IADC
14.30 HSE Management
Session Chair: Thomas Helmer, Head of Corporate QM/HSE, Senior Director, Maersk Drilling
We Still Have to Keep it Simple: Kris Callen, Vice President – Safety and Leadership, The REACH Group
Working with rig crews, we are seeing a disturbing emphasis back to documentation and many times distracting them from the true purpose and intent of the safety management system. While documentation certainly has its role we have over-complicated simple concepts. Our goal is to simplify the basic safety management systems so that the end users are using them efficiently and with the original purpose and intent in mind. Albert Einstein said “Everything should be made as simple as possible, but not simpler”. If we revert back to “going through the motions” history is destined to repeat itself again.

15.30 Evolving Safety Legislation
Moderator: Gert-Jan Windhorst, Secretary Operations Health & Safety, Deputy Secretary General, NOGEPA
Rig crew safety remains an industry priority. In light of recent industry events, the European Union has for some time been developing new regulations for offshore safety. Although unions, regulators, oil companies and drilling contractors welcome new initiatives, which will enhance safety, many share a belief that the existing regulatory structure in Europe has been effective in ensuring safety throughout various jurisdictions. They do not agree that the proposed regulations will lead to enhanced safety but are concerned that they may add expense and bureaucracy. The panel will further explore this topic and offer a better picture of the present status of work in this field.
Panelists:
- Hans Jørn Johansen, Chief Engineer QHSE, DONG Energy and Chairman, OGP Safety
- James Munro, Operations Manager, Offshore Division, Health & Safety Executive
- Taf Powell, National Expert, EU Commission Directorate General for Energy
- UK Government Department of Energy and Climate Change
17.00 Adjournment
Unassigned Papers of Note:
The following paper proposals will be included in the conference if a scheduled paper becomes unavailable. In addition, these presentations will be made available in the IADC conference proceedings, should the author so desire.
Applying Human Reliability Analysis to Managed-Pressure Drilling Operations: Koen van de Merwe, Human Factors Consultant, Sondre Øie, Det Norske Veritas, Kristian Gould, Statoil
Insights gained in the application of a Human Reliability Analysis (HRA) method applied to a normal-operation scenario for a managed pressure drilling concept will be shared in this presentation. The application of the systematic human error and prediction approach in a normal-operation scenario was found to be crucial in relating the Human Error Probabilities (HEP) to the consequences of failure for a particular task. Also, in the application of the standardized plant analysis risk-human reliability analysis, a nuclear specific technique, some applicability issues were identified. As such, relative HEPs were used to prioritize improvements to the concept.
Implementation of Innovative HSE Management Methods in Drilling Operations: An Experience of Major Oil and Gas Company in the Gulf Region: Yousef Abdulrahman, Manager- TS Group, Hamad Al-Kandari, Golamari Sampath Reddy, Kuwait Oil Company
Kuwait Oil Company is fully committed to pioneer a good HSE culture and enhance the company’s HSE performance through the successful implementation of its HSE Management System (HSEMS), standards, guidelines and other HSE initiatives. The initiatives taken by the Exploration and Production Development Directorate to control the risk through innovative HSE management methods will be discussed.
Integrating Process, Risk and Compliance through Business Process Management: Peter Shields, Chief Executive, BusinessPort Ltd
A process-based approach to reflecting operations means easy to understand processes can replace text documents. Mapping the business process end to end, you will gain greater understanding of the inputs and outputs for each series of activities. These visible sets of activities not only ease understanding but allow other aspects to be integrated within the process such as, Risk Controls and Compliance.
How Closed-Loop Drilling Systems Improve Safety and Reduce the Environmental Risk while Drilling: Essam Sammat, Business Development Manager, Jon Goodenough, Weatherford UK Limited, Christophe Mura, Dong Energy
An overview will be given to compare the closed-loop circulating systems with the open to atmosphere circulating system, it will show the well control statistics and how the RCD’s bottle up blowouts focusing on the recent trends in RCD usage and incident of blowouts. Moreover, the presentation will demonstrate the installation of closed-loop in deepwater and it will include a conclusion to how closed-loop drilling systems improve safety and reduce the environmental risk while drilling.
