An assessment of the safety performance indicators on board two fixed offshore structures handling petroleum is presented in this paper. Results are based on an analysis of a database of safety activities covering a period of 3 years from 2006 to 2008. The database is compiled by the operating company of the platforms, which are located about 120 km offshore from Libya in the Bouri field. The key safety performance indicators assessed are the potential loss of life, fatal accident rate, average individual risk, lost-time injury frequency, and accident severity index (gravity index). The assessment provides important information on personnel safety performance and rates of injury occurrences on board fixed offshore platforms. The computed values for the safety indicators are then compared with acceptable standard values and with other platforms and regions to assess the current safety performance level on board the platforms. The results could be a valuable tool for improving personnel safety on board the platforms, for identifying changes over time, and for focusing efforts where improvements are needed.
