Labor management challenges in the
oil and gas industry
Fatigue affects 54% of shift employees, and on-the-job fatalities are 7x higher than other industries in the US. To address this, the American Petroleum Institute (API) has implemented Recommended Practice 755 (RP 755) to limit hours and days of work. This means that Operations executives have to handle the dichotomy of operating within regulations while still minimizing costs.
Compounding the burnout problem is the skills gap, particularly among critical engineering roles. Scheduling an already lacking labor pool within the confines of shift regulations on paper or spreadsheets increases the likelihood of accidentally overscheduling employees.
Areas of opportunity
- Onboard cutting-edge IoT capabilities to gain a competitive advantage and attract engineering talent
- Integrate contractors and freelancers fully into scheduling and skills evaluation processes—subject part-time workers to the same cultural norms as full-time employees and set defined performance goals and training
- Upskill current employees to provide schedulers with multiple job opportunities
Compliance concerns
- RP 755’s Hours of Service guidelines which break down the maximum number of shifts, maximum length of each shift, and the minimum time off after a work set for each shift pattern (12-hour, 10-hour, and 8-hour)
- Centralized and easy-to-find data on where employees are and when, in the event of an audit or during an emergency
- Employee certifications and expirations are accessible and transparent
