Shortly after our CEO left the EDrill-1, rig crews were candidly interviewed to give their take on his visit. And most importantly, their feedback on the newly introduced Safety Buddy Programme.

Our CEO visited the EDrill-1 on the 14th and 15th of November to roll out the Safety Buddy Programme and to reinforce our focus on HSE for the entire company. While on board, Mr Chew conducted two separate sessions with the crew to drive home the safety message. He stressed the importance of following diligently our long established procedures of Permit to Work (PTW), Job Safety Analysis (JSA), Stop Work Authority (SWA) and the Four-Point Check.
The crews were very engaged and energised in the discussions. The concept of the Safety Buddy was easily understood and embraced. It was enlightening and fun to watch everyone make their personal safety pledge to their safety buddy (please watch the videos below). K. Kamolchai (seen above) gave a short presentation to reinforce PTTEP’s SSHE objective towards achieving Target Zero – where no one gets hurt. It was heartening to see everyone come together and make their individual commitment to safety. Marcus visit ended on a high note where he observed Loi Krathong with everyone onboard. |
On the 29th of April 2016, the management and staff of Energy Drilling sat down for a farewell luncheon honouring the formal retirement of our Vice President Operations - Larry Robbins. After 44 years of exemplary service, including tenures at the tender assist drilling groups of Robray Offshore, Smedvig Asia, Seadrill and Energy Drilling, Larry looks forward to enjoying time with family, friends and the great outdoors from the African savannah to mighty rivers of Alaska.
Marcus Chew commented, “Larry is a true gentleman and a man of high integrity. He is one of the few industry veterans able to manage difficult situations with calm resolve. In all my time with Larry I have never once heard him raise his voice or speak poorly of a colleague”. |
