Managing the response to emergencies or crises can be daunting, particularly when this is in addition to ‘the day job’. Organised by EPOL, this event was primarily aimed at those involved in, or wishing to develop their capability in, emergency response procedures and training.

This half-day seminar focused on the changes and impact for industry of operating under the new safety regime from July 2015, with regulatory oversight from the newly established Offshore Safety Directive Regulator. Speakers from HSE and DECC shared their views and expectations and case studies from industry gave an insight into practical arrangements for the new safety case submission requirements.

The annual UK Oil and Gas Industry Safety Awards ceremony celebrates the people, teams and companies making a real difference to offshore health and safety. The winners of the 2015 Awards are: • Safety Leadership – Vic Retalic, Premier Oil Plc • Safety Representative of the Year – Karen McCombie, Sodexo • Innovation in Safety – BG Group and Amec Foster Wheeler • Workforce Engagement – Bruce Offshore Platform Team, BP
