As a leading organization, Orpic places emphasis on safety – be it their people, plant or operations. The company works with a clear target to zero harm across all its operations proactively identifies, analyses and mitigates any impact that may occur across its areas of operations.
Raphael De Loenen, Chief Operation Officer, said, “We are extremely happy and proud of our achievement. The operations, maintenance & technical services teams at the Aromatics Plant are closely aligned with the HSE rules and practices, so our combined strengths form a formidable barrier in avoiding incidents. In order to assist and emphasize safety, a wide range of tools have been developed over the years: permit to work, internal/external audits, drills, training/coaching followed by evaluation, adhering to standard operating procedures, developing process safety awareness & culture to name a few.”
He further went onto say, “This could not have been possible without the contribution of all those who have been serving for Aromatics Plant both directly & indirectly all these years. We hope to maintain this momentum.”
