Group HSEQ and Security Policy

Acergy is a seabed-to-surface engineering and construction contractor. We plan, design and deliver complex, integrated projects in harsh and challenging environments for the offshore oil and gas industry worldwide. We are committed to a policy of achieving HSEQ and security excellence in all of our business activities and operations. Through our Management System we have established a framework for setting and reviewing HSEQ and Security objectives for the group.

Our HSEQ and security philosophy is based on the international standards of OHSAS 18001 for occupational health and safety, ISO 14001 for environmental management and international best practice and standards for security. This is supported by management commitment, personal accountability, training, fairness, and performance measurement. Accordingly, we are committed to preventing injuries, damage to the environment and damage to or loss of property or equipment.

Everyone working at Acergy has a duty to comply with this policy and to embrace the following principles, to which management is fully committed :

• Uphold HSEQ and security as a core business value of the Group to achieve the elimination of unsafe actions and conditions.
• Communicate to our people that anyone who observes an action or condition that is unsafe has a right and duty to intervene and stop the operation, and that this action will be supported by management
• Foster a positive and progressive HSEQ and security culture throughout our organisation ensuring that all our people, whether employed directly by us or working on our behalf, work responsibly to meet our HSEQ and security standards whilst complying with the applicable laws, regulations and good industry practices in each country of operation.
• Provide the resources, training and development to ensure that work is carried out safely, professionally and with full consideration for environmental protection.
• Identify hazards and assess risks so that we actively manage our operations safely.
• Investigate all events where injuries, damage to property or harm to the environment has occurred or could have occurred. Furthermore, we will learn from such events to prevent them recurring in the future and operate a ’just’ system of accountability when dealing with HSEQ and security infringements.

If we all work in accordance with these principles we will create a culture that properly values HSEQ and security and improves our business performance on a continuous basis.
