The company said its frequency of serious incidents was down at the end of the year from its levels at the end of 2024.
This paper presents a novel application of artificial intelligence in computer vision for automating blowout-preventer pressure-chart-data extraction, demonstrating significant efficiency gains and a high return on investment.
This paper examines how real-time monitoring can improve both incident prevention and emergency response in the oil and gas industry. Drawing from real-world examples and case studies, it provides practical strategies for implementing this technology effectively.

Unmanned aerial systems (UAS) are lightweight, low-cost aircraft platforms operated from the ground that can be outfitted with imaging or nonimaging payloads. UASs offer health, safety, and environment professionals a promising opportunity to reduce risks by keeping people out of harm’s way. -
Rather than always trying to do more, the goal should be to do better. More isn't always better. Better is better.

When selecting extinguishers, most organizations insist on quality, often deferring to the UL fire ratings with the expectation that higher ratings mean better firefighting capability. For some fires, that is true; however, in high-risk environments, the opposite can be true.
