PV GAS organises an annual conference to review safety-health-environment activities in 2019 and to carry out the plan in 2020

Speaking at the conference, PV GAS’ General Director, said that because this gas industry’s specific characteristics were the high risks of fire and explosion during production and trades, PV GAS always had an awareness of ensuring security and safety to be the leading task and magnetic needle for each activity. In 30 years of establishment and development, PV GAS has ensured safety in each process of production and trade so there has been not any severe fire accident which affects its staff, environment and property. PV GAS every year sets up and issues the Plan of labour safety and hygiene according to the legal regulations, and assigns specific tasks for all its units. The conference was a chance to evaluate the results of the implementation of safety-health-environment tasks and a forum for PV GAS’ the units to share, to discuss experiences, difficulties, and shortcomings, and to address solutions to overcome and improve the quality of the management of safety-health-environment tasks at the Corporation and its members.       

In the conference, safety-health-environment activities in 2019 and the year’s first quarter, and the methods for the implementation of tasks in the year’s remaining months were summarised in a lively film. Although pipeline systems and equipment have been put into use for many years, gas works continuously have been expanded, invested to build, and repaired, safety has been maintained thanks to the care and directions of leaders and efforts of the entire Corporation. There were remarkable results: operating gas works always were ensured, continuous and effective; ensuring quality for gas products distributed to customers; well controlling the maintenance, repair, and investment in construction as well as activities which could affect the environment negatively. The safety-health-environment system was more and more perfect. Most of criteria set in the safety-health-environment tasks were obtained and the rate of progress was ensured. The good implementation of safety tasks contributed to the common success of PV GAS in last year and the year’s first months. 

In the year’s first quarter, although COVID-19 pandemic was broken out complicatedly and influences were caused by the drop in oil prices, PV GAS took initiatives in carrying out solutions for adapting to the dual impacts, preventive measures against the pandemic, continuous production and trades. With the same activities in the Corporation and its units, PV GAS prevented from arisen problems affecting production and trade. PV GAS currently continues to watch for and to maintain several methods to control the pandemic effectively.
