  • Quality

    Our QHSE management system provides a structured path for continuous improvement, accomplishment of goals, development of personnel and enhancing business processes. Bringing these standards, procedures and practices within a manageable framework gives the company a unique opportunity to update and revise them to reflect the continuously changing environment.

  • Health and Safety

    We recognize the fact that our operations have the potential of affecting the health and safety of our employees and other third party personnel associated with the day-to-day activities. We aim to minimize this impact on personnel and also reduce the adverse effect on the environment due to our operations.

  • Environment

    Our area of expertise, that is drilling operations, takes us to a variety of locations; some close to land and others being virgin seas that have never been explored before. At Aban, we believe it is our responsibility to ensure that they stay uncorrupted and that our presence does not disrupt the delicate balances of fragile marine ecosystems.

  • Keeping the Promise

    We believe that potential hazards and undesirable events can be identified and accidental loss (personal injury, property damage, environmental impacts or operational interruptions) can be prevented. Therefore, priority is given for development of a culture that promotes proactive interactions.

    The long-term success of Aban depends on our ability to actively manage and monitor the Quality, Health, Safety and environmental (QHSE) aspects of our business while setting objectives for improvement. The upkeep of our activities and equipment is constantly monitored and reviewed periodically. We practice risk control measures by learning from the investigations and aggregated data of individual incidents. Our accidents, incidents and near-misses go through various investigations and epidemiological analyses followed by recommendations to implement corrective action.
