IADC Drilling HSE&T Asia Pacific 2021 Conference & Exhibition

13.05 PANEL: CULTURAL CHANGE
Moderator: Wayne Bauer, Director of QHSE, Vantage Drilling

As oil and gas companies adapt to changes in markets, stakeholder expectations and new regulations, they are consistently being forced to develop new strategies and change their structures. However, for those changes to be successful, the organization’s culture needs to be in alignment with its strategy and its structure – a process that often requires a cultural change.

In this session, industry stakeholders, leaders and experts will share their insights and responses as they explore the industry’s embedded work processes, resources and solutions for achieving the desired cultural qualities.

14.30 PANEL: RIG RE-ACTIVATION & START-UPS
Moderator:  Chidpon Jantarawaranyoo, Director of Operations, South – East Asia, Shelf Drilling

As we emerge from a period of inactivity for many drilling rigs, it is important to understand the obligations and responsibilities that are associated with rig re-activation and startups, whilst managing the additional risks and challenges/restrictions that the current COVID-19 pandemic incorporates. This session will focus on the perspective from those involved with each phase of the process from the regulatory direction, drilling contractor management, shipyard assistance, and operator expectations upon these assets as they all contribute to the assurance that the integrity of the systems have been poised and maintained to manage the associated risks, alongside those challenges associated around preparing for the rig crew at all levels to be engaged.

16.00 CLOSING REMARKS: Chit Hlaing, Regional Director-Asia Pacific, IADC

Human Factors
Session Chair: Wayne Bauer, Director of QHSE, Vantage Drilling

Using Surveys to Understand the Climate Versus Understanding the Culture of an Organization: Andrew Knight, Senior Manager, Asia Pacific, the REACH Group
This presentation will provide valuable insight into the benefits of using surveys, the steps needed to design a survey for accurate and meaningful data along with the implementation approach used on two semi-submersible rigs where the goal was to have a lasting effect on the organisational culture and ultimately the performance of the rigs.

Fatigue Counter Measures Offshore Light Treatment: Koos Meijer, Director, KM Human Factors Engineering, Martin Robb, Human Factors Applications
Operator fatigue is a major brain hazard and a serious safety hazard. It reduces brain performance, decision making, and overall alertness. This, in turn, increases human error risks on the work floor. Offshore light treatment using special blue-blocking sleep glasses and energy lights have proved to reduce fatigue levels and to enhance operator alertness and energy levels. This Human Factors innovation will raise HS&E and process safety to a new level.

Emerging Technologies to Improve Safety Operations
Session Chair: Jumasri B. Terimo, Head, Wells International, Upstream, PETRONAS

Data Analytics using Power BI in Oil & Gas – Readiness to Industry 4.0: PVN Chandrasekaran, Director, PetrelTech Pte Ltd
This paper brings limelight to the application of Data Analytics in the oil & gas industry with Power BI data modelling techniques. Thereby encourage embracing Big Data to improve business performance through prescriptive analysis on the processed data corresponding to drilling, production, well data, HSE & HR heading towards the business success.

Drops
Session Chair: William Lai, HSE Leader Asia Pacific, Health, Safety & Environment, Baker Hughes

DROPS Asia Initiatives: Joachim van der Meulen, Chapter Secretary & Facilitator, DROPS Asia
Throughout the Covid-19 crisis, the DROPS Asia Chapter have continued to engage the drilling industry to develop and promote best practices for dropped object prevention. This presentation will highlight some of the key topics and initiatives like the Recommended Practice Checklist, Assignments of Petroleum Engineering students in India, DROPS Surveys and Inspections, Red Zone Management and Machine Learning. It will provide an update of the DROPS Virtual Reality Training and Collaboration tool first demonstrated at the IADC Drilling HSE&T Asia Pacific Conference & Exhibition in Malaysia in 2019.

DROPS Presentation: Kenny Adams, Head of Land Drilling QHSSET, KCA Deutag
Throughout our industry, over 60% or more of all High Potential incidents are dropped object related and dropped objects continue to account for many fatal and potentially fatal incidents in the upstream oil and gas industry. Within our organisation we have focused on managing DROPS and Lifting as an integral part of our HSSE Systems and are now seeing marked improvements throughout our rig operations. The session will give an overview of the systems and training we have introduced which includes: Interactive DROPS Training Media to raise further awareness on DROPS specifically- Identifying a potential dropped object, appreciating the significance of dropped objects in our industry, Heightening awareness of our Risk Assessment Process, and identifying preventative and mitigation controls that can be used to reduce the risk of dropped objects. To support this we have also introduced a DROPS Inspection Application using tablet technology to reduce Human Error whilst completing these essential inspections. DROPS is an area we can all improve on to achieve our vision of #Drivetozero.

WellSharp
Session Chair: William Lai, Regional HSE Leader Asia Pacific, Health, Safety & Environment, Baker Hughes

WellSharp Analytics and Knowledge Retention Study Results: Gerardo Barrera, Program Manager, IADC
As WellSharp approaches its 5-year anniversary, IADC has taken a deep dive into the exam database analytics and has conducted a knowledge-retention study to form a base line for future analytics tied to the new continuous-learning system, called Knowledge Retention and Education for Our Workforce (KREW). This presentation comprises a comprehensive WellSharp program update, current analytics from the WellSharp database, well control topics that need to be addressed, and the recent knowledge retention data IADC has obtained. Now offered by 160 training providers in 36 countries, WellSharp employs 825 instructors and 1,500 proctors worldwide and has trained more than 160,000 people. The WellSharp program comprises 11 courses, and the exams include 3,500 questions in five languages. IADC and its members are working to continue improving initial learning and knowledge retention, as well as to close gaps identified by the WellSharp exams.
