QP is committed to the health and safety of its employees, contractors and visitors. From drilling to construction, operations to decommissioning, Corporate HSE policy forms an integral part of daily business. Education and training programs encourage staff to be conscious of their HSE roles and responsibilities, improve their awareness of HSE issues and promote voluntary participation in HSE activities.

Besides oil spill monitoring and clean up, plant integrity also plays a vital role--especially when aging plants are being managed. QP and its subsidiaries make every effort to comply with all applicable HSE standards and legislation in both international and State-ratified conventions and protocols, with the ultimate goal of no accident or harm to employees, the general public or the environment.

Preserving Qatar’s natural environment for future generations is crucial in making sure that QP’s employees and the general public can live in a cleaner, safer world. QP is committed to the protection, preservation and conservation of the natural environment and local amenities in all areas of operation.

QP has in place in all of its operation areas a routine environmental monitoring and reporting procedure to ensure that facilities are operating within the environmental regulations set by Qatar’s Supreme Council for the Environment and Natural Reserves.

QP sponsors and promotes a number of activities and outreach programs to enhance HSE awareness among its employees and in the local community. Terrestrial and marine fauna and flora preservation programs such as the Al Reem biosphere reserve have been given a high priority. Ostrich, mangrove, marine turtle and conservation projects have been established in the appropriate QP operation areas, demonstrating the harmonious coexistence of industry and nature.
