Stop Work Authority
Jason Sullivan
Weatherford
The Challenge....
• We work in an Industry where we are constantly under pressure to deliver
and hence it is often very difficult for our people to stop a job
• Over the years we have seen what the consequences of inaction can lead
to when unsafe acts are not stopped
• Other parties refusing to acknowledge the associated risks with a
particular task and pressure is being exerted on Weatherford personnel to
“get the job done” without proper safety controls in place.
• Employees recognizing unsafe conditions and acts, but not feeling
empowered to stop the operation
Overcoming The Challenge....
Aggressive approach
not effective:
Getting the right people involved
to develop a safe solution to
rectify unsafe conditions and
complete the operation safely:
The Result....
• Example of SWA:
– A vertical Pipe Racking System (PRS) slid off of it’s Horizontal track coming to rest against
a Derrick Beam close to the Monkey board…

Positive Operational Safety Targets (POST)
Dennis Bagnoche – Group HSE Manager
Clough Seam Gas
Positive Operational Safety Targets - POST
•
•
•
POST is designed to encourage a pro-active approach towards HSE target
setting using Lead Indicators. Aligned to AS/NZS 4801 – 4.3.3 Objectives and
targets.
POST has been around Clough since 2003 firstly beginning in the Offshore
Industry
POST Headings and example :
–
–
–
–
–
–
–
–
–
–
Leadership and Commitment – Qty of management site inspections
Planning – site design and layout
POST target reviews – daily input, weekly and monthly reviews
Training, Competency and Awareness – TNA, VOC’s, Inductions.
HSE Communication – Item close outs from committee meetings, toolbox
meetings frequency and compliance
Hazard and Risk Management – HAZIDS, JHA, Plant Risk Assessments
Emergency Preparedness and Response – ER exercises conducted
Inspection and Measurement – site inspections, light vehicles, lifting equipment
Incident and Injury Management – Incident investigations raised within 24hours
Audits, Reviews and Improvements – internal, external, subcontractor audits
The Challenge…
• Embedding the POST system at project inception
• Monitoring compliance to set targets and objectives
• Setting the right culture to ensure the Project Management Team
has ownership and accountability
• Ensuring compliance does not waiver and lose momentum
• Aligning the system with clients expectations and Joint
Venture/Partnership arrangements
• Ensuring there is dedicated support and resources provided to
input, retrieve and communicate data
• Reporting of negative indicators
Overcoming the Challenge and the Results
Overcoming the Challenge:
• Education on safety culture, identifying POST as a tool that enhances safety performance and
solid compliance
• Engaging the workforce at all levels to ensure buy in from Project personnel
• Project managers are not bound explicitly by Corp Targets and Objectives for Lead Indicators,
Projects have the flexibility to set own attainable targets based on agreed Project goals with
clients
• Development of Safety Leadership Team (SLT) with personal objectives and targets aligned to
POST
• Project manning to include dedicated HSE resources to manage data integrity
Results:
• Excellent HSE performance represented in graphs and dashboards
• A program based on proactive measures with lead indicators rather than reactive frequency
rates
• Reduction of exposure to legal obligations and enhances Risk Management Principles
• Lessons learnt tool, captures what has been done well and what needs improvement
• Proactive approach with tangible results that are physically seen
• A workplace that looks and feels safe
• Dedicated workforce with the right culture committed to zero incident and harm
