LNG plant in five-year run without serious injuries

The PNG LNG plant has recorded more than 13 million work hours without loss-time injury, a statement said.
The company has now experienced five years of operation without serious injuries that may prevent a person from being at work, it said.
That “was achieved across the entire plant site by both staff and business partners on Aug 15”, the statement said.
Plant operations manager Jagir Baxi said the LNG Plant was a world-class plant with a world-class safety performance to match.
He said: “This is a significant accomplishment and a testimony to our staff and business partners maintaining a robust culture of safety wherever each individual works and whatever task they may do.
“We provide our workforce, including our business partners, with the knowledge and tools to execute each work activity safely and we strive to prevent all accidents, injuries, and occupational illnesses through the active participation of every member of the team at the LNG Plant.”
He said “achieving long periods of loss-time-injury-free operations is an important sign-post for our company to ultimately achieve its goal that Nobody Gets Hurt.”
Maintaining a safe workplace requires an ongoing focus for LNG operator ExxonMobil.
The company will be hosting its sixth annual safety, security, health and environment contractor safety leadership workshop this week for its contractors.
Managing director Andrew Barry said such an achievement was possible through the commitment of employees and contractors who saw value in a workplace free of injuries.
“We work closely with our business partners to achieve a shared safety culture and for them to ensure that the LNG plant site has been loss-time-injury free for five years is an amazing achievement,” Barry said.
