Safety at the Forefront
With confined space entry identified as a high-risk task, Nqpetro collaborated closely with our HSSE team. Together, we implemented comprehensive safety measures, including dedicated spotters, certified entry/exit equipment, and rehearsed rescue plans. This proactive planning ensured the project ran smoothly and safely, with zero incidents.
A Team Effort
Special recognition goes to our Site Supervisor, Peter Blackburn, and Skilled Installer, Chris Bell, who executed each stage of the upgrade with precision and dedication. Their hard work and commitment to quality and safety were instrumental in bringing this project to completion.
