Course Overview
Price volatility does not excuse weak discipline in behavioural safety programmes — it punishes it. Regulators and insurers increasingly want documented evidence of how the practice within energy and hydrocarbon operations is controlled. This programme builds this part of energy and hydrocarbon operations from first principles, without padding and without omitting what matters. Work is grounded in real cases drawn from behavioural safety programmes, which each participant adapts to conditions in their own organisation. Participants develop a defensible line of reasoning for the choices they make about this aspect of energy and hydrocarbon operations. It is written for people who have to make this area of energy and hydrocarbon operations work with the resources they already have. The professional literature on behavioural safety programmes converges on a small set of controls that reliably work. What blocks progress on the practice within energy and hydrocarbon operations is usually unclear ownership rather than unclear intent. The programme closes with an action plan for the energy and hydrocarbon operations discipline that each participant writes for their own organisation.
