Safety is key in all of our processes and operations
We manage process safety throughout the whole life cycle of our activities, from the moment when a plant or process is being designed until it is dismantled.
Prevention is fundamental in process safety
We control risks and manage them effectively, detecting industrial accidents before they happen.
We focus on three pillars: people, processes and plants.
People
The aim is to work with people and their values, beliefs, behaviour, and attitudes regarding safety in order to reduce the number of accidents caused by human factors. The lines of action in this pillar are as follows:
Processes
The aim is to further integrate process safety, ensuring that safety measures and barriers work correctly. We have two lines of action within this pillar:
Plants
The aim is to design, implement, and maintain adequate safety mechanisms to ensure the integrity of our facilities. Within this pillar, there are two lines of action:
Designing the appropriate safety mechanisms to protect people, the environment, and assets throughout their life cycle.
Ensuring that all safety mechanisms are working properly to guarantee that when triggered they will work as they were designed to.
Safely decommissioning process units or plants.

Best practices
The best way to show our commitment to safety is by sharing real stories about the actions we have taken.
We are the first foreign company to perform a ship-to-ship (STS) operation in Brazilian waters.
The achievement, which Repsol Sinopec Brazil secured on 21 December 2016, optimises and gives flexibility to our crude oil trading operations.
