HSE Golden Rules
In order to effectively manage the “Golden Rules”, Lucent Petroleum applies rigorous consequence management which means that we take a risk based approach to guide people and leaders through the processes required when they witness or have reported to them inappropriate behavior in the workplace. For serious violations of safety rules, staff or contractors’ risk immediate dismissal. For that purpose, consequence management is split into two categories. The more serious category which results in immediate dismissal is applied in case of alcohol / drug abuse. Less severe cases, such as safety belt violation, result initially in a warning followed by dismissal if a repeat violation is observed.
Golden Rules:
- Seatbelts must always be worn by the driver and all passengers
- Do not exceed the speed limit and reduce speed for impaired road conditions
- Do not use phones or operate devices while operating a motor vehicle
- Alcohol and drugs of any kind (excluding approved medicines) are forbidden
- Where required work with a valid permit
- Obtain authorization before entering a confined space
- Confirm that hazardous energy sources have been isolated, enclosed and tagged
- Obtain authorization before overriding or disabling safety controls
- Never walk under a suspended load
- Protect yourself against a fall when working at heights
Hazard Observation Cards
As part of promoting safety culture among our employees and contractors, Lucent Petroleum continues to implement a hazard observation card process. This initiative has been launched in 2022 when all employees and contractors were encouraged to report any unsafe conditions observed in the workplace. This helps to ensure that our employees and contractors are always mindful of safe working conditions and continuously help to improve the safety of our operations.
Contractor Management
We require our contractors and suppliers to work to the same high standards as our employees, therefore effective contractor selection, communication and training in our safety culture and practices as well as strong monitoring are essential to maintain the high level of safety embraced by Lucent Petroleum.
Lucent Petroleum seeks to promote safe behavior among its contractors and has established a wide range of methods to ensure that operations at facilities are carried out in full compliance with local legislation as well as Lucent Petroleum rules and regulations. In addition to the measures already discussed.
Emergency response
In 2024, no industrial accidents or oil spills were recorded at Lucent Petroleum operations.
The Company has emergency response plans to enhance our ability to respond rapidly to unforeseen events to maintain business continuity and minimize negative impact on people, the environment, our physical assets and our reputation.
The plans are communicated to the workforce and response personnel receives training to ensure they are competent to carry out their emergency roles. We continue to ensure asset integrity and control operations to effectively manage all significant risks during all stages of the operations.
Oil spill prevention
Lucent Petroleum strives to have zero operational spills. Lucent Petroleum continues to undertake initiatives to prevent and reduce spills that include drills and training teams, timely maintenance, repair and replacement of equipment, monitoring of problem areas, etc.
