Incident Command Leadership
Core Service 01
Well Blowout & Emergency Response
When a well goes out of control, the first hour decides everything that follows.
A blowout, uncontrolled release, or major site emergency does not allow time to work out who is in charge. New HSE Horizon prepares operators and drilling contractors to respond with structure, speed, and clear command authority — and provides experienced incident command support when an event is underway.
- Emergency Response Plans built for the specific well, rig, or facility
- ICS organisational structures, station bills, and role cards
- Well control and blowout contingency planning
- Multi-agency coordination with Civil Defence and mutual aid partners
- Emergency drill programmes: tabletop, functional, and full-scale
- On-call incident command advisory support during live events
Outcome
Your teams know exactly what to do, who decides, and who to call — under pressure, at 3 a.m., with no rehearsal time.
