Reducing the number of hydrocarbon releases will remain top of the agenda in the drive to make the UK the safest place to work in the worldwide oil and gas industry.This is the message of the 2012 Annual Update from Step Change in Safety, which was published on 4 April, as the gas leakfrom the Total Elgin platform in the North Sea entered its 11th day.Co-chair of the initiative Ken Robertson commented: "Step Change has risen to the challenge of reducing leaks year on year by developing a wide range of tools to help companies ensure their staff have the required good practice guidance, competencies and leadership skills. A huge amount of work is going on to share data and best practices across the industry."
