Every spring, the National Occupational Research Agenda’s (NORA) Oil and Gas Extraction (OGE) Sector Council holds a Health and Safety Summit that brings together government, industry, and other partners to highlight state-of-the-art knowledge on assessment and control of workplace hazards in the oil field.

The next summit has the theme “Improving Safety Culture and Human and Organizational Performance in the Oil Field” and is set for 10–11 April.

The NORA OGE Spring Health and Safety Summit is a free virtual event, typically held on the Zoom platform.

Past summits have provided four hours of informational content on each of two back-to-back days.
