Introduction to land rig drilling operations

All companies in the oil and gas industry have individual operational standards, instructions, health,
safety and environmental programs.

Our course does not replace these solely providing only an overview to the typical operational tasks,
key aspects and activities needed to be safely managed and controlled, to reduce and eliminate the
hazards and risks that may exist at the worksite

The course is intended as a tool for use in familiarization training, educational and personal
development to better understand, comprehend and realize the workplace hazards that exist to
enable persons to apply corrective solutions to their daily operational activities.

This course cannot identify all the hazards, risk and solutions that exist in the operations, serving
only as a guide. The primary focus of this course is for land-based operations.

Worker safety awareness is necessary to prevent all accidental loss at the workplace including
personal injury prevention during all phases of drilling and servicing operations. Procedures and
processes will include safety meetings, Job Safety Analyses, risk assessments and general and task-
specific training.

At the end of most lessons, typical hazards and potential solutions are identified to provide more
details needed to be considered to assure safe work practices and procedures are followed at all
times.
