Oando Gas & Power Limited (“OGP”), an Oando PLC entity and a foremost indigenous developer and provider of gas and power solutions, has achieved a million industry milestone man-hours with zero Lost Time Incident (LTI) or fatality in all projects and operations, spanning a period of 2 years and 3 months.
LTI is a measure of injury sustained on the job that is capable of preventing a worker from performing or continuing with a task or resulting in downtime in the operation. It is an oil and gas industry benchmark that evaluates adherence to safety and environmental requirements in the course of operations. As a result, LTI is a critical Key Performance Indicator (KPI) for Oando’s conformity with the best practices of the oil and gas industry.
Commenting on the accomplishment, OGP CEO, Mr. Bolaji Osunsanya said: “Our managerial and operational teams, along with our partners and sub-contractors, have done tremendously well to achieve 1,001,708 LTI Free Man hours within our power projects and expanding gas pipeline grid. This is a prime example of our commitment towards ensuring safety and high quality work performance on all our installations. The health and well-being of our employees and those visiting our workplace are important at all Oando locations, and we are truly pleased with this safety milestone.”
Through several subsidiaries, OGP consistently demonstrates competitive market leadership by providing gas and power solutions to industrial and commercial customers, such as the Akute independent power generation plant which supplies constant electricity to the Lagos State Water Corporation, significantly increasing the supply of water to millions of residents in Lagos state.
Oando PLC’s Chief Environmental Health Safety Security and Quality Officer, Mr. Chjioke Akwukuma also praised the LTI achievement saying: “This is a commendable feat in the history of OGP, as the operations team has worked for 41,737 days without any disruption due to personnel injury, and this proves our dedication to the safety culture that exist company-wide and our adherence to policies and procedures covering product quality, safety, environment, health, security and emergency readiness, which ensure that all operations always meet international safety requirements.”
