    • 14:10 - 14:55 Deepwater Horizon: Managing the Risk of Offshore Oil and Gas Accidents
      The Oil and Gas Industry has gone through dramatic and industry shaping events, such as Piper Alpha and Macondo. These events have significantly impacted the way the industry is now thinking, acting and behaving.

      The Deepwater Horizon Drilling Rig had gone an extraordinary seven years without a single serios accident. The rig, owned by the Switzerland-based Transocean Ltd., and its veteran crew were some of the best in the business. Just months earlier, BP and the Deepwater team had broken the record for deepest well ever completed. Yet, the tragic events unfolded.

      Based on a review of the management lessons learned from these events, this talk will discuss some of the essential elements to getting to zero and how to create the context where the individuals and teams are sufficiently aware, engaged and enabled to make the right decision at the right time for the given circumstance.
