Example Recommendations - Competency issues arising from NOPSA Inspections Install a formal competency management system
Operators need to have a management system in place that ensures all competencies required for the safe operation of a facility are availableThe poorest performers in competence usually had no competence management system in place, and standards improved quickly when a formal management system was put into place
Build a competence matrixOperators need to identify the required competence, and map it onto their employees to make sure that all competencies are available in the workforce at all times
Evaluate performance consistentlyPerformance needs to be evaluated when staff are actually carrying out the tasks, especially when tasks are only performed very rarely, such as an emergency response
Under NOPSA’s policy OHS inspectors mayconduct inspectionsand audits
Competency Management is increasingly important especially after the Montara and Macondo incidents

HAZARDS
LOSSES/ INCIDENTS
• All barriers may inevitably have deficiencies• When deficiencies occur simultaneously in barriers, it can lead to losses / Incidents• Our last line of defense is competent people that recognize and react appropriately when things
are deviating from plan. … but how do we know if we have competent people and how should we develop them further?

WHAT WAS WORKING WELL FOR US?
Slide 5
• We run capability reviews.
• We have Personal Development Plans (PDP’s) for our staff.
• We pay attention to developing our folks - staff and contract.
• We discuss appointments widely when responding to recruitment needs.

PLANNING
What set of technical competencies
do we need to deliver our portfolio?
How do we ensure we screen candidates for
the right set of competencies?
What is the basis for technical assessment
of our staff?
What is the basis for building
development plans?
EXAMPLE PERSPECTIVESCMS PHASES
“ Without a map, we have no way of knowing for sure what specific skills we are after”
“There’s no clear criteria for evaluation, which makes it difficult to understand candidates’
actual technical competency
“ We need a fixed set of criteria for technical assessment, in order to be robust and
transparent”
“It needs to be clear to individuals, what exactly they need at each level, and what they
can do to get there”
KEY QUESTIONS AND PERSPECTIVES
Slide 8
WHERE WERE THE GAPS THAT WE NEED TO IMPROVE ON?
• We didn’t have a competency map for each of our supervisors.
• Recruiting was largely based on verbal interview and verbal reference checks. We lacked evidence to support why we appoint team members.
• We don’t systematically know where to target development through 70:20:10
• Individuals don’t have a clear plan of what they need to progress from Day-> Night-> Superintendent.
• We had limited understanding of our team’s collective strengths and weaknesses.

Selected drilling design competency advantageous but not essential to deliver operations
Selected completion design competency advantageous but not essential to deliver operations
It was quickly apparent that competencies for Drilling Operations could be grouped and prioritized
PREFERRED
Required to successfully execute operational tasks safely and effectively
Advantageous for execution of operational tasks
Core technical competency required to manage and execute drilling operations
Competency required to manage and deliver operations safely in accordance with industry and internal HSE standards
Competency required to effectively and quickly regain control of emergency situations
Core technical competency required to manage and execute completion operations
DRILLING OPERATIONS

SPECIALIZED
Additional competency required to execute jobs in non-conventional environments such as HPHT, H2S Competency required to apply specific techniques e.g. multi-
lateral completions, extended reach drilling, smart wells

The designed TCM defines core and safety critical elements for Drilling Operations
The TCM details the competencies required at various
levels within the Skill Pool¹
EXCERPT
Core competencies are those that are most
important to execute day-to-day operations safely and effectively
A safety critical competency, if applied
correctly, is able to mitigate the risk of a major accident event (MAE) from occurring
