On November 12, professionals from 20 companies in the sector participated in the best practices exchange talk on “Prevention of Major Emergencies in the Exploitation of Unconventional Fields,” organized by the Arpel Exploration and Production Committee (CEPA).
The presentation was given by Héctor Morán, Process Safety specialist at EP Petroecuador.
The moderation was by Pablo Amoedo, Arpel Project Manager and CEPA coordinator.
The hydrocarbon industry handles highly dangerous chemicals and is, therefore, susceptible to major emergencies such as fires, explosions, or spills that can contaminate fresh water sources.
The objective of this webinar was to review the OSHA 1910 regulation, which dictates guidelines to be followed in a multidisciplinary manner in order to prevent major emergencies, which can be applicable in drilling, workover and even stimulation operations of conventional and unconventional wells. In addition, specific case studies were provided.
The implementation of security management systems, continuous training of personnel and the adoption of advanced technologies for risk detection and control are essential best practices for the prevention of major emergencies.
