Abstract
This paper describes the safety and environmental management system, policies and measures adopted for petroleum oil field development project which the author was involved as Head of Health, Safety and Environment (HS & E).
As safety and environmental awareness has been commonly spread in the industry, project owners are requested to execute the project in a safe and environmentally responsible manner, whichever country the project is planned.
As a responsible operator of the Rang Dong oil field, Japan Vietnam Petroleum Co., Ltd. implemented a series of safety and environmental measures based on the safety and environmental management system developed for the management of various hazards arising in the course of the project. The adopted safety and environmental management system is an ISO 14001 like modern management system incorporating the PDCA cycle.
