TO CAESAR WHAT IS CAESAR'S
There is light everywhere. Also, positive will, solid organization, and sound initiative-taking management, even in countries where all is not well, under long prevailing political systems.
Case in point, this industrial safety billboard at the entrance of a large petrochemicals manufacturing plant in my home country of Venezuela.
Billboard shows industrial safety statistics for “Metanol de Oriente–Metor,” a world-class 4,700 ton/day methanol manufacturing plant, located in the eastern Venezuela "General José Antonio Anzoátegui" Industrial-Petroleum-Refining-Oil Upgrading-Petrochemicals-Natural Gas Complex, near the twin cities of Puerto La Cruz and Barcelona.
I took the photo while here for three weeks, during Metor’s 45-day programmed plant shutdown of its No. 2 manufacturing train. The statistics speak for themselves. The billboard reads:
* The result of working with eyes, mind and heart in the task at hand.
* 3,844 days – 13,329,699 hours – Without accidents of lost time.
* Our best statistical record: 3,844 days and 13,329,699 hours through August 08, 2024.
Days and hours do not add up because they are calculated using the applicable industrial safety formulas.
Metor functions at full capacity. Producing high-quality methanol for Venezuela and global markets. It operates with 100% Venezuelan personnel. And a few Japanese advisors.
