JSC MNGE carries out its operating activities at the northernmost onshore oil field developed in Russia, in the arctic climatic zone, West-Siberian oil and gas province.

As a consequence, severe climatic conditions of the region (the air temperature goes down to minus 60°C in winter), wind, challenging terrain, no transport infrastructure.

Commitment of JSC MNGE’s management to HSE principles is organized at a high level. To obtain the best results, JSC MNGE’s management considers “safety” as an element which is as important as cost price, capacity, work quality or relations between employees.

To value the life and health of employees above the results of production activities is the foundation of the joint-stock company ModulNefteGazEngineering.

The management of the company fully realizes its responsibility for safety of personnel and creation of comfortable work conditions. With this regard, as of today, JSC MNGE has developed an Industrial, fire, transport and environmental safety, occupational health and civil defense policy which regulates the activities of the company.

Fulfilling its obligations, the Company remains an acknowledged leader in establishing and complying with HSE requirements during the construction and operation of production facilities, which is confirmed by letters of acknowledgment by the Client.

The management of the joint-stock company ModulNefteGazEngineering has undertaken personal HSE commitment under the developed Policy. A Regulation on bonus awards to employees was created in order to improve work management and motivate employees to comply with HSE requirements. HSE meetings are held on a quarterly basis under the chairmanship of the General Director, with participation of department heads and production personnel of JSC MNGE. JSC MNGE organizes training seminars and advance training courses devoted to industrial safety issues in order to ensure constant proficiency enhancement and to develop a culture of positive attitude to HSE issues by employees.

In accordance with the requirements of Federal Law No. 426 “On special assessment of labor conditions”, the company assessed labor conditions at all work places in production facilities in 2020 in order to fulfill its obligations as an employer and ensure safety of employees in the process of their work and the rights of employees for work places complying with the state regulatory requirements of occupational health.

Annually we spend over 2,000,000 rubles for personnel training and over 7,000,000 rubles for HSE in general.

For example, a seminar “TOP-1000. Improvement of HSE culture, with participation of one of PJSC Gazpromneft affiliates, on the basis of the view shared by all business” was held on June 2, 2016, in the Sheraton hotel Ufa. The total number of participants was over 30 people, with participation of representatives from top management of the Client, PJSC Gazpromneft. Thus, JSC MNGE became the first place to hold such event.

The seminar was attended by managers and specialists of the company, as well as representatives of one of PJSC Gazrpomneft affiliates. LLC Nordic Consulting Resources (LLC Nordic) was in charge of the training. The number of participants was over 50 people.

A joint seminar of JSC MNGE and Client representatives was held in September of 2018 in the conference hall Assel of the Hilton Garden Inn Ufa Riverside hotel with an aim of a detailed study and creation of a single approach to the requirements of industrial and environmental safety, occupational health and civil defense. Participants took an active part in discussions, every person formed their personal role in the process of HSE culture improvement in the company.

After PJSC Gazpromneft introduced a system of HSE rating for contractors, the activities of JSC MNGE related to industrial safety started to be built on carrying out activities included in the Contract management plan, submitting reports upon Client’s request, timely closing of HSE comments.

All managers and specialists of JSC MNGE undergo certification for industrial safety using a direct connection to the Information system of the Rostekhnadzor Unified Testing Portal

Before work performance we estimate potential risks and, if necessary, take corrective measures to eliminate hazards. The use of the “5 stages” methodology is a high priority before the start of any production target. The first stage implies studying the future work. The second stage includes the definition of potential hazards and unpleasant consequences. The third stage of the methodology implies formation of steps to eliminate a potential risk. The fourth stage shall give an understanding what to do if unexpected circumstances occur. The last stage implies making a decision on the re-start or start of work.
