Drilling Operation And Technology

The Oil & Gas Industry, especially the Drilling Industry, is one of the most complex industries. Drilling Operations carried out in this industry are not as easy as the oil & gas that we see every day. As drilling carried out in Oil & Gas Wells is a difficult & complex operation, a successful Drilling Operation requires:
- Qualified personnel & team
- Complex arrangement of machines, materials & equipment (Drilling Rigs & more) that must reach depths of more than thousands of meters
- Perfectly executed cooperation by personnel & team
- Collaboration with other Operations & Service Companies

Some things to avoid in Drilling World:
- Personal injury
- Technical problem
- Expensive cost
- Accidents & emergencies

However, all the complexities, difficulties & complexities to drill & complete Wells in the Oil & Gas / Drilling Industry can be overcome with the advancement of Technology in the Drilling World. The technology applied also assures that the Drilling Process in the well can be carried out safely & efficiently.

Emergency Breathing System (EBS)

Fact: No human can hold their breath underwater without wearing proper PPE. Even if they can survive, they can only last a few seconds.

Emergency Breathing System (EBS) can help users to:
- Control water so that water does not have a bad effect on the respiratory system
- Extend the time to breathe underwater so that the user can safely escape from the overturned Helicopter
- Inhale the exhaled air
- Survive

EBS has complied with the requirements set by the Health & Safety Standards.

Best advice: Use EBS when you are in rivers & seas, as EBS can be attached to wetsuits & life jackets.

- Self-protect by using Safety Equipment & PPE, especially life jackets & EBS
- Self-protect by holding the chair & window or exit door
- Escape from the Helicopter which is on the water or sink & capsize underwater by pushing the window or exit door
- Swim to the surface of the water & seek help, including searching for Liferaft
- Survive in the sea

Things to remember:
- PPE, life jacket & EBS must always be used
- First Aid must be given to victims, especially those who are Hypothermic

Fast Rescue Craft (FRC)

The Fast Rescue Craft (FRC) is used for:
- Rescuing the victims when an emergency occurs at sea

- Rope
- Spotlight & flashlight
- Compass
- Anchor
- A tool to give a signal
- Signal whistle
- First Aid Kit in a waterproof case

First Aid And CPR

When an emergency occurs, First Aid is the only action needed & must be done before the Medical Team arrives.

When a person faints, the most important actions to take first are:
- Checking the victim's consciousness: Conscious or unconscious?
- Is the victim responsive or unresponsive?
- Checking pulse
- Checking the breath

If the victim is not breathing, the next steps to take are:
- Contacting the Medical Team before performing First Aid
- First Aid can be started by performing Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR)
- Opening & clearing the airway
- Providing respiratory support
- Performing Chest Compressions to maintain blood circulation: Pressing the center of the chest down hard & fast with both hands & letting the chest rise back naturally between compressions
- Turning the body to the side after the victim is conscious & can breathe again
- Checking the victim's condition after the victim can breathe & the heart beats: Is there any injury, broken bones & more?
