HEALTH & WORKING ENVIRONMENT

Health promotion, early treatment and close follow up of sick to be effective in reducing absence from work. We have specially focused on the plan process, improvement of mapping activities and documentation and follow up of actions. The strength of a company’s commitment to health, safety and the environment is determined by the conviction of its management and the execution of its QHSE system by all of its employees. We are determined to be the leader in QHSE performance in the industry. As a compliment to the health promotion we have planned to give the training time to time.

Petropath Fluids (India) Pvt.Ltd. employees and consultants are the Company’s most important asset. Preventing occupational injuries and illnesses and protection of the environment are of such consequence that management will provide all the facilities and support reasonably required to ensure success.

A duty of care exists for the health and safety of all personnel that come into contact with drilling fluids and drilling fluid additives. This duty of care would be clearly demonstrated by the Company and the Contractor in terms of implementing the following health and safety strategies.

The Company in conjunction with Contractors would provide ongoing health and safety instruction for all personnel on hazard avoidance and safe handling of all drilling fluid products.

Health and safety data covering all drilling fluid products would be disseminated to all personnel. This will be done via Material Safety Data Sheets and the posting of Health and Safety Information notices in appropriate work areas. These notices will detail product name, hazard classification, personnel protective equipment and remedial treatment for accidental exposure or ingestion. All dangerous goods will carry appropriate dangerous goods labels. Clear guidance will be given on the use of personnel protective equipment and barrier creams to minimize personnel exposure to drilling fluid additives.

ENVIRONMENT

A duty of care also exists for our environment, which would be demonstrated by the Company and the Contractors in terms of implementing strategies and rig modifications that minimize the impact of drilling fluid operations on our environment.

The Company would comply with State and Federal synthetic oil discharge limits, while striving to further reduce drilling fluid discharges.

The Company rigs and platforms will be rigorously surveyed to evaluate the integrity of all drilling fluid containment systems. All care will be taken by company personel to avoid accidental drilling fluid or chemical spills on the rig, such that they do not discharge straight into our environment

Drilling fluid procedures would be designed and implemented that absolutely minimize the risk of accidental drilling fluid or chemical spills into our environment.

The use of synthetic oils will be controlled in accordance with the Company’s drilling fluid selection criteria. When synthetic oils are used the Company will conduct ongoing characterisation and quality control tests to confirm product integrity and compliance.
