Health, Safety and the Environment
Our approach
At Ithaca Energy, Health, Safety, and Environmental (HSE) performance is our highest priority, and we remain committed to providing a safe and healthy working environment for all employees, contractors and other personnel working for us.
Throughout all our operations, we encourage a positive and robust safety culture; ensuring that health and safety standards are not compromised to meet commercial objectives. We achieve this by implementing our Operational Excellence Management System which puts into action our value of protecting people and the environment and helps us achieve our vision to be the highest performing independent North Sea oil and gas company, focused on growing value, delivering safer, ever cleaner, sustainable low-cost production for the long-term benefit of our stakeholders.
Operational Excellence
Operational Excellence (OE) systematically manages workforce safety and health, process safety, reliability and integrity, environment, efficiency, security and stakeholders in order to meet our OE objectives.
- Eliminate fatalities, serious injuries and illnesses
- Eliminate high-consequence process safety incidents and operate with industry-leading reliability
- Assess and manage significant environmental risks
- Use energy and resources efficiently
- Prevent high-consequence security and cybersecurity incidents
- Address OE business risks through stakeholder engagement and issues management
Looking ahead
During 2025, we implemented our new ‘Make it safer’ value ensuring HSE matters are front and centre in our activities and representing a cornerstone of our proactive safety culture. We have undertaken standardisation of several key systems and processes via a comprehensive change management programme.
In 2026 we will continue with this harmonisation programme, and further refine our broader strategy around health, safety and environmental management to ensure ongoing suitability to our business and identification of opportunities to deliver improvements in our HSE performance.
Emergency Response
At Ithaca Energy, we aim to ensure incident free operations. We recognise, however, that where incidents do occur, effective and robust response must be provided. We therefore ensure that all relevant personnel are trained and competent in emergency response, emergency response plans are in place, and that these plans are frequently and regularly exercised to demonstrate and improve our emergency management preparedness.
