Keep spill prevention in placePursuing environmental efficiencyMaersk Drilling and Maersk FPSOs offshore operationgoes beyond compliance in regards to local and internationalrules and regulation and to requirements fromclients. Environmental efficiency is pursued by:• A systematic approach to identify potential for moreefficient use of resources, lower emissions and optimisationof cost• Proactive mitigation of environmental risk• Anticipation of regulatory changes as well as customerand competitor strategyEnvironmental improvement is part of the companystrategy and built into the management system. A comprehensiveenvironmental programme covering ‘eco-efficiency’focusing on atmospheric emissions, discharges tothe marine environment, waste management, chemicalmanagement, tools and reporting, training of personneland formalised monitoring of environmental incidents toinitiate necessary preventative action has been setup.The programme forms the baseline for our initiatives toreduce the total impact on the environment from offshoreoperations. Maersk Drilling and Maersk FPSOseco-efficiency and objectives for 2009 – 2013 can be foundin the conclusion on page 21.In this section of the report you can read more aboutsome of the ongoing environmental initiatives.savings and emissions, but the project also includeddischarges, accidental spills and waste management.• A systematic identification, assessment and evaluationof all relevant environmental improvement opportunitiesthroughout the entire drilling fleet will be part ofthe project.• A Green Rig campaign has been developed and will belaunched in 2009.• Different software solutions are presently being evaluatedwith the purpose to implement a ‘decision tool’looking into risk, cost and environmental advantage.Together with an environmental key performance program,it sets the base for choosing the right improvements.• Maersk Drilling seeks to engage in cooperation with oilcompanies regarding environmental improvements.In 2010, a Green FPSO project similar to the current GreenRig project will be initiated. Improvements initiatives followingthe two projects will be the main driver in the ecoefficiencystrategy in the years to come.Maersk Drilling and Maersk FPSOs’ objective is to reducethe relative amount of CO 2emissions according to thefollowing plan:2009 2010 2011 2012Green rig why?We share theresponsibilityGlobal warmingOzone depletionImpact on human healthAir pollution (smog and acid rain)BiodiversityMarine pollutionOcean acidificationResource useGreen Rigcampaign postersEco-efficiency – main focus areas in 2008For Maersk Drilling, the Green Rig project was the mostimportant initiative in 2008, supporting eco-efficiencywhile a green Methanol project was the focus forMaersk FPSOs.Green Rig projectThe project was launched with the purpose of reducingthe environmental impact from the fleet, including newbuildings,and to increase employee awareness in the environmentalprogress of Maersk Drilling.• The project took place as an interdisciplinary assignmentwithin the organisation focusing mainly on energy0 % 2 % 5 % 10 %Green Methanol projectOn the Maersk FPSOs side, a Green Methanol projectwas investigated in 2008, by evaluating gas-to-liquid(GTL) technologies. With Maersk LNG joining MaerskFPSOs this has opened further possibilities.• The project includes evaluation of producing methanoloffshore based on a flaring from the oil and gas productionand thereby reducing CO 2and other emissions relatedto oil production. The methanol project continuesto be developed within Maersk FPSOs.
Global chemical management systemMaersk Drilling and Maersk FPSOs' goal is to improvechemical management and to limit both the use of environmentallyharmful chemicals in operation, and thedischarge of chemicals into the sea.• In 2007 a new chemical management system was initiated,both to ensure compliance with to national dischargepermits and OSPAR regulations and to improveperformance throughout the operations.• In 2008 registration and evaluation of currently usedchemicals was initiated. The registration includes essentialchemical information, global legal compliancechecks and relevant documentation such as MaterialSafety Data Sheets. Furthermore, chemical workinginstructions can be created from the system in five differentlanguages.• Registration of all chemicals used in the Danish andNorwegian sector has been initiated and the informationwill be available to all units and local shorebases supportingimprovement across the entire organisation.• Chemicals discharged into the sea are colour coded accordingto the guidelines of the OSPAR Commission(see table below). Maersk Drilling and Maersk FPSOs’goal is to establish global substitution programmes forblack and red chemical products.• The goal for 2009 is to register black and red dischargechemicals onboard the units on the Danish and Norwegiancontinental shelf and to prepare a substitution plan.The long term goal is zero black and red chemical discharges– only yellow and green wherever Maersk Drillingand Maersk FPSOs operate.New management system with focuson environmental performanceA revamp of the Maersk Drilling and Maersk FPSOs paperbased management system was initiated in 2007 tocreate a simpler, transparent, user-friendly and flexiblesystem. All environmental processes, the environmentalpolicy and key applications have been revised accordingly.The new process based management system,SIRIUS, will support the environmental performance andimprovement.Environmental improvement in the headquartersIn the autumn of 2008 an improvement project for theestablishment of waste paper recycling in the corporateHQ covering shared premises with Maersk Drilling,Maersk FPSOs and Maersk Supply Services was established.It is recognised, that compared to the offshore environmentalimpact the potential onshore improvement mayseem marginal, however, for environmental awarenessonshore the project is deemed highly important consideringthe political signal of involving approximately 400employees directly in an environmental improvementproject. The project will be launched in February 2009with a three month test period ending in April.Increase environmental awareness throughcampaigns and training programmesAn environmental awareness training programme wasdeveloped in 2008 as part of a total HSE & Security trainingpackage. The programmes were in use on all newunits (six in all) as e-learning and class room training.Our objectives for 2009 and the years forward are tolaunch environmental awareness campaigns in connectionwith Green Rig and Green FPSO projects.Colour codes for chemicalsBlack chemicals are the most environmentally damagingamong chemicals used in the offshore industry.Red chemicals give cause for concern as they containseveral environmentally harming properties.Yellow chemicals have only one environmentallyharming property.Green chemicals either do not contain any environmentallydamaging properties, or they contain propertieswhich have only minimal impact on the environment.
