EHS (Environment, Health, and Safety) – Safety observations, incidents that impact health and or
safety of the employees are captured (Near miss, Unsafe condition, Unsafe act, LTI, MTI, Fire
incident etc.) with an intent to immediately act on them with priority and prevent those incidents from
escalating to higher risk and impact levels.

Prevention is better than cure – the focus is on capturing as
many Safety observations as possible and closing them out via a systematic process of actions on
those.

Environment

The environmental function focuses on the effects E&P have on the external environment. Typically, the discipline deals with those effect that occurs outside the E&P footprint. Included are the effects of air emissions, waste water discharges, and disposal of waste.

Health

The health function typically deals with the well-being of the employees as they live and work in the E&P environment. Typically, the health function focuses on the effects of oilfield chemicals and oilfield physical environment on employees.

Safety

The safety function focuses on protecting the employee from risk involved in E&P operations. All E&P operations involve some risk from operational hazards. The safety function seeks to minimize these risks and monitor the effectiveness of the minimization activities.
