Suggested proactive indicators to be used in oil and gas industry based on a survey of accidents in the industry

There is a lack of empirical surveys discussing how to increase safety and resilience in the oil and gas industry in a proactive manner. By safety we mean “freedom from unacceptable risks”; resilience is defined as “the ability of a system or an organization to react to and recover from disturbances at an early stage, with minimal effect on the dynamic stability”, both from Hollnagel (2006). By proactive we mean “acting in anticipation of future problems”.
