Title: Applying Crew Resource Management on Offshore Oil Platforms
Abstract: The aviation industry recognized the significance of human error in
accidents almost 30 years ago and has been instrumental in the development
of effective training programs, designed to reduce error and increase the
effectiveness of flight crews, known as crew resource management (CRM;
Wiener, Kanki, & Helmreich, 1993). Because of the success of CRM in the
aviation industry, it has been adopted by a number of other professions,
including anesthesiologists (Howard, Gaba, Fish, Yang, & Sarnquist,
1992), air traffic control (ATC; introduced in the United Kingdom as team
resource management); the merchant navy (Byrdorf, 1998), the nuclear
power industry (Harrington & Kello, 1992); aviation maintenance (Marx
& Graeber, 1994) and, the subject of this chapter, teams on offshore oil
and gas installations (Flin, 1995).
