Safety

Nothing is so important that it cannot be done safely

Working Safely: A Core Value

Safety is a core value at CNOOC International and the success of every activity we undertake is measured on our ability to execute our work safely every day. Our employees and contractors strive to ensure our oil and gas production occurs without incident or harm to our people, communities and the environment every day. Safety is just simply a part of the way we work.

Our Executive Leadership Team is fully committed to supporting a safe workplace by providing employees and contractors with clear expectations about:

  • Safety awareness
  • Consistent work practices
  • Proactive hazard identification
  • Rigorous risk mitigation, especially for non-routine work
  • Recognition and support for safety performance

Occupational Health & Industrial Hygiene

The health and safety of our employees and contractors is our top priority.

At CNOOC International, we're committed to anticipating, recognizing, evaluating and controlling workplace environmental health hazards that may cause illness or impair the well-being of our employees, contractors or the community members who live or work near our operations.

Promoting Healthy Work Environments

We've developed an occupational health management program that works to promote healthy work environments, protect the health and well-being of employees and prevent occupational injuries and illnesses. This system assesses and manages individual and work environment health risks, and organizational health issues that may pose a risk to our business (i.e. transmittable diseases).

We've also established an industrial hygiene management program that anticipates, recognizes, evaluates and controls workplace environmental health hazards or stressors. The components of this program include:

  • Hazard identification and monitoring
  • Risk evaluation
  • Control plan development and implementation
  • Employee training
  • Evaluation of controls
