PREFACE

Stena Drilling Limited’s philosophies regarding Quality, Health, Safety and the Environment are embodied in Policy Statements, which are regularly reviewed and endorsed by the Managing Director. These Policies are made known to all employees and others who may be affected by our activities.

The Management and Supervisors of the Company will show leadership and commitment to QHSE by:-

• Allocating the necessary resources for QHSE Matters• Participating in the QHSE Management process at all stages of operations• Putting QHSE first on the agenda at meetings• Setting personal examples in day to day work as per their individual commitments• Recognising performance and achievements in QHSE• Participating in site visits, QHSE Audits and Inspections

Stena Drilling Limited currently operates in several countries and presently employs approximately 700 personnel. These employees are our most important resource.

Stena Drilling Limited has a zero tolerance towards unsafe acts or conditions. In order to reach the zero target we depend on continuous improvement and on motivated managers and staff who care for each other through safe behaviour.

In order to realise this, we must do the job right the first time round, every time.

Through the Stena Drilling Safe Behaviour Programme we shall continuously communicate the Company’s commitment to Safety to the individual and the environment. Despite experiencing a number of undesirable incidents during 2006 we are confident that the use of the Safe Behaviour Programme in conjunction with the tools identified below will result in a considerable improvement in our QHSE performance for 2007.

Message from the Managing Director

Sometimes we observe safe behaviour, at other times we observe unsafe behaviour. What many of us find difficult is to act on the observations we make. If any of us observes unsafe behaviour we are obliged to stop and provide guidance to the person in question. In my opinion, it is equally important that, when we observe safe behaviour, we stop and give positive feedback to the persons seen to act safely. Only through constructive feedback and guidance on safe behaviour can a positive safety culture be achieved.

Planning Tools :

The Risk Assessment is seen as the cornerstone of the foundation upon which the Stena Drilling Management System is based. The revised Risk Assessment with the combined Toolbox Talk actively encourages communication during the planning stage.

The Pre-Job Plan lends itself to communication and is to be used during the planning of all routine jobs, whether working alone or together with others. The Pre Job Plan, with its checkpoints, is designed to help ensure your everyday safety.

Lifting activities are recognised as hazardous operations and the Lifting Plan, which combines a Risk Assessment, is the method to be used to communicate potential hazards and mitigating factors to all those involved in the task.

Time out for Safety (TOFS) opportunities shall be identified during the planning process and TOFS shall either be planned or their trigger points documented to allow individuals the juncture whereby they are authorised to request a TOFS.

Remember, caring for others is what it is all about and that it is up to you and me.

Good luck with your safety work in 2007.

Tom Welo Managing Director
