Abstract:This report is the third by CONCAWE reviewing the safety performance of the downstream oil industry in Western Europe. It includes the results of 28 companies which together represent over 90% of the oil refining capacity in Europe. It is therefore a representative sample of the industry. However, as the data for some companies is incomplete, the most important results are quoted as frequencies. The data covers the year 1996. Overall, the reported hours worked by company staff and contractors combined were about 420 million with an average Lost Workday Injury Frequency (LWIF) of 4.7 which compares with 4.6 i 1995, 4.0 in 1994, and 4.7 in 1993. A range of other measures of safety performance are also reported. The responsible management of safety in the oil industry resulted in a low level of accidents despite the intrinsic hazards of the materials handled and the operations carried out.
