Objective

The efforts being made to improve maintenance management within these focus areas ensure that key contributors to HSE risk and uncertainty are identified and followed up.

Result

No non-conformities were detected during this audit.

Two improvement points were identified concerning:

  • Objectives and strategies
  • Temporary insulation

What happens next?
