The International Association of Drilling Contractors (IADC) North Sea Chapter Safety Awards celebrated its member companies for safety performance in 2012. Northern Offshore and Ensco won in the jackups category while Noble Drilling and Stena Drilling were acknowledged for semisubmersibles. Archer Well brought home five awards, including the Chairman’s Special. The award recognized Archer’s Paul Ellis for safety leadership. “The safety awards dinner is our opportunity to applaud the continuous efforts of our workforce who strive daily to achieve the safest working environment possible,” says North Sea Chapter Co- Chairman, Darren Sutherland. “This year’s event is particularly noteworthy as we celebrate the Chapter’s 40th anniversary and commemorate the 25th anniversary of Piper Alpha – a tragic event that initiated a significant overhaul of the North Sea safety regime.”
