It's All About Safety!

Safety...Speak up!  

Safety is a huge issue in our business. Accidents are not good for our reputations and are costly. More than any other business, the oil and gas industry takes it seriously and provides education, plus takes action.

From "safety training" to "safety moments," we keep the issue of safety at the forefront of every day. But one area that may need to be reinforced is teaching people to speak up. All employees should feel empowered enough to say something if they see a threat to safety.

If you see someone performing a task in an unsafe manner, speak up or stop the action/work! It's not enough to maintain our own safety. The actions of others impact everyone.

Champlain Group to host at SPE Conference in San Antonio, TX

SPE is holding a Final Commissioning and Initial Startup Conference in San Antonio, Tx.  The conference starts on February 5th and concludes on February 6, 2013. In the final commissioning and initial startup (FCSU) phase of the project, the work of multiple teams over several years finally culminates in production. Though oilfield facilities are similar, there are always differences in technical details between projects. The goal of the FCSU workshop is to help address unique challenges.

The workshop agenda is organized to maximize audience participation and minimize presentation time. This workshop will bring together experts to discuss the challenges, lessons learned, and recent advances.

Champlain Group, Inc has been a sponsor of this conference for the past 2 years and will once again host an evening reception.
