The 2017 Sakhalin-1 SSH&E Forum was held in Yuzhno-Sakhalinsk on the 26th September, the theme of which was ‘SSH&E Excellence is Our Way’. This year’s forum differed from previous years with the addition of contractor trade booths whereby contractors displayed how they were contributing to SSH&E excellence on the Sakhalin-1 Project. Also added to the agenda was an interactive session with the audience participants called ‘Who Wants To Be A Safety Hero’. Kentech played a leading role in the organising of this year’s event; designing and hosting the interactive session, coordinating contractors’ presentations and trade booths. The day finished up with the Safe Contractor of The Year award ceremony and we are delighted to announce that the Kentech Maintenance Team were a recipient of this award for the 5th time. Well done to the entire Kentech team in Sakhalin.
On the 18th August 2015, Kentech was awarded a 5 year Instrument, Control & Automation, Electrical, Telecommunications, HVAC Maintenance & Construction Services Agreement on the Sakhalin 1 Project by client Exxon Neftegas Limited (ENL). The Sakhalin 1 Project is comprised of onshore facilities Chayvo OPF, Odoptu FSP and offshore platforms Berkut and Orlan in the remote Sakhalin Island region, as well as the DeKastri Oil Terminal situated on the Far Eastern Russian Federal Mainland.
August has seen the passing of a couple of safety milestones for the team in Sakhalin. The team have surpassed 11 million manhours LTI free this month. This is truly a proud achievement for the team locally and the whole of Kentech. In order to achieve a milestone like this, you need a workforce built on mutual respect and a safety culture which leaves no room for compromise.
