DOHA: ExxonMobil Qatar emphasised the link of safety leadership and culture to sustainable performance during Qatar Petroleum’s second Operational Safety Challenges Forum this week.
“Effective safety leadership is critical to driving a strong safety culture,” said Anthony Pryde, Joint Interest Technical Manager for ExxonMobil Qatar. “Through our participation in this forum, we hope to share ExxonMobil’s experience in developing a culture of safety excellence with Qatar Petroleum and other operators in the country so they can benefit from what we have learned over the years.”
Pryde described the leadership programmes offered by ExxonMobil which train employees at all levels. He also emphasised the commitment ExxonMobil makes to grow safety leaders throughout the organisation, as well as integrate safety leadership principles into training, work processes and career development.
With the motto “Nobody Gets Hurt”, ExxonMobil is among oil and gas industry leaders in its safety record. Pryde pointed out how ExxonMobil’s evolving safety focus has resulted in a continual decline in its incident rate. ExxonMobil’s safety philosophy lies in three uncompromising pursuits: exceptional technology, rigorous standards and an unwavering commitment to best-practice safety procedures. Its risk assessment system, Operations Integrity Management System (OIMS), measures and mitigates safety, security, health and environment risks to people, the environment and communities in which ExxonMobil operates.
