IAGC Activities

• The Global HSE Committee continued with its
  smaller core Committee and associated Workgroups
  in 2005. In the past, this structure has been
  effective in managing issues and projects.
• However, the industry has seen the benefits of a
  marked upturn in activity and as a result it has
  been difficult to obtain members time and
  resources for significant new initiatives this
  year. Additional lAGC resources (VP Projects
  MC UK) were recruited during the year to assist
  in partly offsetting this effect.
• Committee continues to meet by teleconference 3
  or 4 times per year and in addition holds two
  global HSE focus events
•   Autumn in London which is a combined IAGC / OGP
  forum AND
• Spring in Houston (VTS offices) which will also
  be a joint OGP forum for the first time
  (April 25 / 26 2006)
• We plan to continue to use the IAGC/ OGP Global
  Joint HSE Forum, to be held in Houston on 25/ 26
  April, to identify issues that our industry feel
  we need to action.

IAGC HSE Value Proposition (1)

• When we are considering undertaking a new
  initiative, apply the following value
• proposition before proceeding with an initiative.
  Clearly define the
•  
• Goals of the initiative
• Timeline for achieving the goal
• Specific deliverables expected along the timeline
  and at completion
• Metrics to be captured to measure progress.
•  
• Justify the initiative based upon
•  
• Monetary impact to the organization
• The ability to influence it
• Are we impacted uniquely by the issues? If not
  will others handle it?
• (Do others have the same issue ands are they
  going to handle it?)
• If its not differential to us, let others
  handle it
• Consensus among organizational members?
•  
• Finally, be sure we have a clear commitment from
  the organization members
• involved in the decision making process. This is
  best measured by identifying

IAGC HSE Value Proposition (2)

• This is based upon two factors
•  
• That a key to our success will be to take on
  only the vital issues, and when doing go, work
  them efficiently and effectively. This is an
  outgrowth of the realization that we have limited
  resources, and we aren't very effective when we
  take on too much.
•  
• The assumption that others who are similarly but
  more directly impacted will take up the cause,
  and will therefore work to influence the issue in
  a manner favorable to us.
