RR264 - Safety and performance enhancement in drilling operations by human factors intervention (SPEDOHFI)
Human Factors is a relatively new science. It is concerned with adapting technology and the environment to the capacities and limitations of humans. The challenge for Human Factors is to act as a prescriptive way to make systems and working practices safer and more efficient.
This project was designed to us a systematic process of Human Factors tools, to classify basic causes of human error and poor safety climate, directly in relation to the drilling environment.
