COVID-19 protocol at the Wellsite: Are personnel wearing masks?

Dear all

At a recent MPD x DWOP here in Indonesia, the HSE group discussion raised a very interesting question.  We'd like to share this with members and see how you are minimising the potential for COVID-19 spreading on the wellsite.

• Equipment is sprayed with disinfectant in the yard
• In some offshore places, we hear that equipment is isolated for up to three (3) days before being handle
• Personnel undergo all kinds of quarantine and tests before being allowed to the rig

Questions:

• What about the supply boat equipment and personnel?
• What other ways have you identified that COVID-19 can reach your wellsite and what precautions are you taking?
• What precautions are taken on the wellsite to control an outbreak? 
• Are personnel required to wear masks at all times?
• How are meal times handled?
• What else are member organisations doing?

Thanks and kind regards

Dave
