Peterson Energies achieves safety milestone  

Peterson Energies is marking a major safety milestone achieving a full year with a LTIF (Lost Time Injury Frequency) of zero and a TRCF (Total Recordable Case Frequency) of zero across its global operations. 

Sarah Moore, Chief Executive Officer at Peterson Energies, said: 

In an environment as complex and, at times, hazardous as ours, achieving an LTIF and TRCF of zero does not happen by chance. It is the result of discipline from every team in following our Life Saving Rules, strong leadership and responsibility throughout the organisation, and a shared commitment to looking after one another.  

“This culture means we not only deliver better for ourselves, but also for our customers. A strong safety culture ensures minimal disruption, protection of resources, and a partner which contributes to the success of wider operations.

“And while we recognise this is as a moment to celebrate, it is more importantly a moment to consider how we continue to build on and further grow and deepen our commitment and delivery of consistently safe operations.” 

Peterson launched its Goal Zero commitment in 2022 which focusses on no harm to people, property, or the environment through its integrated logistics services which connect land and sea.  

Safety underpins strategic decision-making and daily operations at Peterson at all levels of the business, with strong leadership engagement and visibility, robust reporting processes, investment in training and safety improvements, and staff engagement. 

The impressive feat was achieved during busy and challenging operating periods for Peterson’s team which span the length and breadth of the UK from Shetland to Lowestoft, across the Netherlands, as well as in the Middle East. The integrated logistics and supply chain solutions experts during this time managed thousands of port calls, hundreds of thousands of tonnes of cargo, and tens of thousands of lifts.  

Keith Dawson, HSEQ Director at Peterson Energies, said:

A core part of our HSEQ strategy is our Goal Zero culture – how we demonstrate through our actions and behaviours that we are all totally committed to operating safely with zero harm to people, zero harm to the environment and zero loss or damage to equipment, property and data. 

“In my 25 years with Peterson I don’t remember a time where we made such a step change in our safety performance. That’s down to every single team across our operations. For this, I am immensely proud of our people and how they’ve committed wholeheartedly to our Goal Zero ambitions. But we know that tomorrow is not guaranteed and this is a moment to springboard how we move forward safely.”
