8. NDC DROPS CAMPAIGN (MAY-AUG 2009 ) • LAUNCHING CAMPAIGN • Determined to eliminate dropped objects, we launched the Prevention of • Dropped Objects campaign in May 2009. • All rigs have participated in this campaign (18 Onshore + 10 offshore rigs). • Campaign material was purchased from UK and distributed to all rigs . • Posters • CAMPAIGN OBJECTIVES. • Raising awareness of personnel about the hazards in order to improve their perception of hidden risks related to dropped objects hazards.

9. DROPPED OBJECTS HAZARDS CAMPAIGN (MAY to AUGUST 2009) • Distribution of professional videos related to DROPs hazard that are used world wide • New Driller log book for DROPs prevention where all tools or equipment to be used at height on the derrick should be logged and cleared at the end of the job

10. RAISING AWARENESS OF PERSONNEL • Provide In-house trainings to explain different cases of DROPs hazards using power point presentations developed by HSED and presented by FSE’s during safety meetings

20. DROPs HAZARDS HUNT DAY ANALYSIS • Conclusion and Summary: • Inspection is more efficient if carried out by a team rather than by an individual • Dropped object campaign and training enhanced the quality of hazard identification and reporting • Dropped Objects hazards will continue to exist on the rigs and continuous vigilance and good risk perception is a key to reduce number of related incidents
