Shared Learning Experience: Hydrocarbon Gas Releases

Hydrocarbon Gas Releases SLE image

About

This video describes two hydrocarbon gas releases that occurred within 10 weeks of one another on an offshore oil and gas installation.

There were close similarities between the two incidents and thankfully effective barriers were in place which prevented either of those events from escalating into a major incident with the potential for loss of life.

This film has been shared in hope that the learnings will help prevent similar incidents occurring.
