Safety
This paper explores how artificial intelligence (AI), cognitive models, and integrated digital tools can transform readiness from periodic drills into a continuous, measurable capability.
This paper presents a competency-cenetered, data-driven approach implemented to strengthen control-room emergency-response capability through a cloud-hosted, scenario-based virtual plant simulator.
This paper describes an emergency-response system deployed on artificial islands that manages complex challenges, enhances safety protocols, and improves operational efficiency in high-risk offshore environments.

Accidental detonation of a perforating gun at surface can have catastrophic consequences. To decrease risks, layers of procedural controls have been implemented to reduce the inadvertent application of power caused by human error, stray voltage, or the presence of radio frequency (RF) energy. -
The recently issued SPE technical report Getting to Zero and Beyond: The Path Forward highlights the “how to” for the industry to achieve zero incidents, zero harm, and zero impact.

DNV GL has published a paper to support the safe use of artificial intelligence. The paper asserts that data-driven models alone may not be sufficient to ensure safety and calls for a combination of data and causal models to mitigate risk.

Though many people understand that employers have workplace responsibilities regarding their employees' health and safety, far fewer understand that the employees also have certain legal obligations they must meet.

How can corporate trainers prepare employees for dangerous or extraordinary workplace scenarios? Virtual-reality technology offers immersive learning opportunities for an increasingly broad range of experiences.

The biggest problem is not in the everyday operation or use of tools or machinery, no matter how dangerous they may be. It’s when plans veer away from the day-to-day routine that’s the biggest problem.

Academic scientists and advocacy groups are urging the Environmental Protection Agency to withdraw and rewrite proposed guidelines for determining which scientific findings to use when evaluating the safety of toxic chemicals.

Determining the best way to meet the needs of colleagues and employers, as well as enlisting them to help meet goals, takes effective listening.

Welding produces miscellaneous gases and particles that have various effects on respiratory systems, and long-term exposure may result in "welder's lung." The aim of this study is to describe radiological findings of welders' lung.

Nighttime environmental noise affects sleep quality. However, the effects of daytime occupational noise remain unclear.
