Our long-term safety goal is to achieve <strong>and</strong> maintain a top quartile performance within our comparator group. Our 2011 performance was an improvement from 2010. As an independent international energy company, we are establishing a new comparator group benchmarking process <strong>and</strong> will continue to pu_rs_l)e top quartiie safety performance. ------------ ---~--- - -- --------------- --- . ------ --- - --- -- -- ---- -------- . ----- -- - . <strong>Marathon</strong> <strong>Oil</strong>'s GPS details the tools that we employ to drive toward an injuryfree workplace. These include training programs for employees <strong>and</strong> contractors on individual safety, specific high-risk tasks, hazard identification <strong>and</strong> emergency preparedness. The management system also details performance measurement requirements against leading ind icators <strong>and</strong> contractor qualifications <strong>and</strong> st<strong>and</strong>ards. <strong>and</strong> spells out a rigorous audit program for our operations. Safety is a core value at <strong>Marathon</strong> <strong>Oil</strong>. Our most important consideration is keeping our employees. contractors <strong>and</strong> neighboring communities safe. It is our belief that we must manage safety well in order to succeed as a company. We continuously work to build a strong safety culture through clear management expectations, encouraging a culture of reporting <strong>and</strong> routine risk management analyses. We emphasize safety in daily, weekly, monthly <strong>and</strong> corporate-wide quarterly employee meetings to ensure people have a voice in our safety culture. In 2011, a cross-organizational team developed a new <strong>Marathon</strong> <strong>Oil</strong> Event Reporting <strong>and</strong> Management St<strong>and</strong>ard, which we are in the process of implementing. Under this new St<strong>and</strong>ard, all HES&S events (safety, environmental <strong>and</strong> reliability incidents) will be evaluated to determine the actual <strong>and</strong> potential consequences <strong>and</strong> event severity. For example. in 2011, a worker was knocked down by high gas pressure released from piping. This event did not meet reporting thresholds under the Total Recordable Incident Rate (TRIR); however, under the new St<strong>and</strong>ard. a formal root ca use investigation was conducted to determine appropriate measures to prevent recurrence. This new St<strong>and</strong>ard shifts focus to leading indicators. To provide a means to benchmark our performance, we will also continue to measure performance through the TRIR.
