PREFACE
Stena Drilling Limiteds philosophies regarding Quality, Health, Safety and the Environment are embodied in
Policy Statements, which are regularly reviewed and endorsed by the Managing Director. These Policies are
made known to all employees and others who may be affected by our activities.
The Management and Supervisors of the Company will show leadership and commitment to QHSE by:-
Stena Drilling Limited currently operates in several countries and presently employs approximately 700 personnel.
These employees are our most important resource.
Stena Drilling Limited has a zero tolerance towards unsafe acts or conditions. In order to reach the zero target we
depend on continuous improvement and on motivated managers and staff who care for each other through
safe behaviour.
In order to realise this, we must do the job right the first time round, every time.
Through the Stena Drilling Safe Behaviour Programme we shall continuously communicate the Companys
commitment to Safety to the individual and the environment. Despite experiencing a number of undesirable
incidents during 2006 we are confident that the use of the Safe Behaviour Programme in conjunction with the
tools identified below will result in a considerable improvement in our QHSE performance for 2007.

Message from the Managing Director
Sometimes we observe safe behaviour, at other times we observe unsafe behaviour. What many of us find
difficult is to act on the observations we make. If any of us observes unsafe behaviour we are obliged to stop
and provide guidance to the person in question. In my opinion, it is equally important that, when we observe
safe behaviour, we stop and give positive feedback to the persons seen to act safely. Only through constructive
feedback and guidance on safe behaviour can a positive safety culture be achieved.
Planning Tools :
The Risk Assessment is seen as the cornerstone of the foundation upon which the Stena Drilling Management
System is based. The revised Risk Assessment with the combined Toolbox Talk actively encourages communication
during the planning stage.
The Pre-Job Plan lends itself to communication and is to be used during the planning of all routine jobs,
whether working alone or together with others. The Pre Job Plan, with its checkpoints, is designed to help
ensure your everyday safety.
Lifting activities are recognised as hazardous operations and the Lifting Plan, which combines a Risk Assessment,
is the method to be used to communicate potential hazards and mitigating factors to all those involved in the
task.
Time out for Safety (TOFS) opportunities shall be identified during the planning process and TOFS shall either
be planned or their trigger points documented to allow individuals the juncture whereby they are authorised
to request a TOFS.
Remember, caring for others is what it is all about and that it is up to you and me.
