Confined Space in Oil and Gas Industry: Safety Solutions
The offshore industry can be dangerous as there are times where workers will need to be in confined spaces. There are various risks that are involved such as build up of noxious fumes, reduced oxygen levels, or a risk of fire.
Respirators Used in the Offshore, Oil and Gas Industry
It's no surprise the offshore industry is dangerous and work-related hazards are common for workers on the rig. Personal protection equipment such as respirators help to protect against particles, gases and vapors.
SMI Ground Control in Mining
Mining as an industry can be a hazardous environment to work in, making ground control procedures essential for the safety of the workers. These devices will constantly monitor the ground making the presence of any danger immediately clear to mine personnel in the area.
PPE for the Oil and Gas Industry
The oil and gas industries average a fatality rate seven times greater in comparison to the rate for all U.S. industries (25.1 compared with 3.7 per 100,000 per year). The workers face hazards throughout their daily duties, which is why its necessary for employers to provide them with the correct personal protective equipment.
Mine Falls: How to Prevent and Predict Roof Collapses
The correct safety precautions need to be taken to prevent the roof from collapsing inside a mine.
Fall Protection Equipment for Offshore, Oil & Gas Industries
Offshore, oil and gas industries are dangerous for workers if the correct safety procedures and equipment are not in place. According to Offshore, Ill Health and Incident Statistics published by HSE, injuries from slips, trips and falls, including falls from heights, account for 52% of all major injuries at offshore sites, particularly where fall protection equipment is inadequate.
Mine Collapses in North America
There should be no compromise when it comes to mining safety, and mining accidents in the past are unfortunate proof of the importance of finding the best safety equipment and closely following regulations set out by governing bodies such as Mine Safety and Health Administration (MSHA). Looking back at mine collapses can be harrowing, especially when mineworkers have lost their lives, but if the industry is going to protect miners in the future, it is imperative that we learn from the mistakes of the past.
How Efficient Underground Communication Ensures Miners’ Safety and Increases Productivity
“Communication is key” is not a mere platitude, but something that rings true even when working in the most adverse mining environments. Effective communication at mining sites, whether it is using fixed phones, radios or sending tracking data to a central control station, ensures that mines can be safely and effectively managed. The whereabouts of workers, vehicles and various zones across the mine can be monitored, everyone at the site will know where they must be or must go, progress can be assessed and optimised, and risk can be mitigated by providing alerts and communicating with workers should a critical event occur.
GPS and the Mining Industry
For any application of GPS in mining, the aim is to improve productivity and safety. Global positioning systems are useful for a range of tasks, from fleet management to surveying to collision avoidance.
Mining Slurry Technology for Treating Industrial Wastewater
Dewatering at mines and industrial sites can be a tricky task, not only requiring robust, heavy-duty mining slurry technology that can handle abrasive materials and debris (preferably with minimal to no regular maintenance requirements), but also removing and treating this mining wastewater effectively.
