The Ipieca-IOGP Health Committee has released a new publication Medical facilities assessment: Checklist for medical professionals in the oil and gas industry. The checklist provides guidance on the assessment of medical facilities to help companies: identify the best medical facility in the operational oil and gas location; … comply with company HSE requirements to assess medical facilities; and … integrate health facilities that meet medical standards within the company's emergency response plan.
