The oil and gas industry is faced with such challenges as avoiding worker injuries, preventing environmental disasters, and dealing with regulatory overload from regulatory bodies in the U.S. and many others throughout the world. 

When oil prices are low, companies in the sector face significant pressure to cut spending. This can lead to production slowdowns, decommissioned rigs, layoffs and unsafe working conditions if the HSE budget also ends up on the chopping block. 

To help mitigate such uncontrollable circumstances, outfits can invest in their future by acting strategically. A safety program is one of the best places a company can invest time and resources during this critical juncture.

Safety outcomes directly impact the bottom line, making an HSE program a key opportunity to improve overall business performance. Investing in safety programs will put a company in an enviable position once prices pick up and increasing production once again becomes a priority. Having efficient and effective safety processes in place will allow firms to focus their full energies on production and profits.
