Abstract

Study’s Excerpt

  • A safety management model tailored to the oil and gas industry, which offers a structured approach to mitigating workplace hazards is developed.
  • Questionnaires to assess the hazardous nature of industry operations and to evaluate safety performance across multiple firms are used to identify key areas for improvement.
  • The model could enhance safety practices and reduce injury and fatality rates in this critical sector.

Full Abstract

The increase in the human population raises some fundamental questions about the human ability to protect and take care of its safety.  From the foundation of time, humans have demonstrated skills for sustainability.  In doing this, there is always a high level of concern about the hazardous nature of the environment.  These hazards have hitherto led to severe injuries or death among workers.  One key area of the world economy is the oil and gas of which Nigeria as a nation sustained its yearly budget.  This model, as developed, addresses and proffers solutions to the safety of lives as it affects the oil and gas industry staff with a heavy focus on those directly on the field.  To solve this, this model employed some research measures, such as a questionnaire, to ascertain the gravity of the hazardous nature of the oil and gas industries.  The data obtained were subjected to critical evaluation, as seen in the result table 12, and the result shows an improved performance among the examined oil and gas firms in safety management.  The data received aided the design and implementation of a safety precaution execution and evaluation model strong enough to mitigate hazards associated with the operational states of staff in the oil and gas industries.
