The Abu Dhabi National Oil Company (ADNOC) has recognised waste drilling firm TWMA for its achievements in the field of health, safety and the envrinment at its 2016 HSE Awards.
UK-based TWMA was awarded the Company & Contractor Partnership Award for its work with Abu Dhabi-based oil services company ESNAAD- PJS, part of ADNOC Group.
The category recognises an outstanding partnership in the implementation of HSE and was awarded to TWMA in recognition of its integrated drilling waste management services on all four of the ZADCO artificial islands.
Robbie Pond, general manager for TWMA operations in Abu Dhabi, said: “We are delighted to have won this award which is testament to the hard work and commitment of the team in Abu Dhabi.
“At TWMA, HSE is central to all we do, so it is a fantastic achievement to be recognised for our integrated drilling waste management service on the ZADCO artificial islands.”
“We recently reached 500,000 Lost Time Incident (LTI) free man hours on this project which is a significant milestone for the team and testimony to our continued commitment to a strong safety culture,” he added.
ESNAAD’s business development dept. manager, Mohamad Abdallah, commented: “As an ADNOC Group Company, ESNAAD follows the ADNOC Code of Practice and this award is testimony to the effective and efficient cooperation between ESNAAD and TWMA in delivering a world class service and operational excellence in the oil and gas industry, in line with ADNOC’s vision. ESNAAD and TWMA jointly deserve this recognition for their strong commitment to HSE.”
Since TWMA won the North and South ZADCO island contracts in 2013, the company’s Abu Dhabi branch has grown significantly and now employs more than 200 members of staff in the region following the subsequent contract wins for the Central and West islands.
