Oil, Gas & Petrochemicals Industry to Aim at Addressing Challenges in HSE

Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, June 24, 2014 --(PR.com)-- According to The Economic Times, recent studies indicate that 98% of all accidents are attributed to some degree to human failures. Human factors are considered to be the most frequent cause of high potential incidents and the second-highest cause of fatalities in the industry. The HSE industry in the oil, gas and petrochemicals sector views HSE issues differently now than it did a decade ago. HSE was once thought of as an unattractive cost to a project, now attention to these issues is considered critical.
