  • Conference paper
Probabilistic Safety Assessment and Management

Abstract

The paper presents the theoretical background for, and implementation of “What, How, and Why Learning” in Offshore Drilling Planning. These principles were derived from a model of company socialization of newcomers, and applied to improve safety and efficiency. Besides enhanced structure and information richness in the program, the new planning model also utilized more hands-on offshore knowledge-in-action than traditionally. Concurrent to the implementation of the re-designed program there were observed significantly improved drilling rates and reduced injury rates.
