Site preparation for an oil & gas well, in most instances, looks like any other construction site. OSHA uses Safety & Health Regulations for Construction (29 CFR 1926) to assess safety compliance during this phase of a development of a drilling site.

Once the location for the site has been established, the area is prepared for dilling, with the following steps:

1. Site preparation

I highly commend the Member of Parliament for North Tongu, Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa for thinking SAFETY.

Occupational Safety and Health is rarely given attention in our part of the world. Encouraging safety on our waters is very crucial and life saving.

REPORTING EMERGENCIES

Develop emergency reporting and communications procedures.
Employees must know how to report emergencies. Some use internal telephone numbers, intercom, or public address systems to notify other employees. It is important for employees to also notify the proper authorities such as fire, medical, or rescue services, if your company relies on this type of assistance during an emergency.

There are preferred procedures for reporting emergencies such as dialing 112 or 192, or an internal emergency number, or pulling a manual fire alarm but there are many other possibilities.

Dialing "112" or ''192'' is a common method for reporting emergencies in Ghana if external emergency personnel are used at your workplace.

Internal numbers may be used for reporting emergencies. If they are, they should be posted on, or near, each phone. Internal numbers sometimes are connected to intercom systems so that coded announcements may be made.
Employees may be requested to activate manual pull stations or other alarm systems.

No matter what system is used, it is imperative that emergency situations be immediately reported. Fires and other emergency situations can reach dangerous levels in seconds and any delay in getting emergency responders to the scene can result in additional loss of life and property.
