Evolution of PPE (Personal Protective Equipment) In Drilling Industry

It’s the most wonderful time of the year!
Now, imagine if your favorite football team had to play a championship game with the same gear they used a century ago.
The game would be drastically different—less safe, less efficient, and much more dangerous.
Similarly, the evolution of personal protective equipment (PPE) in the drilling industry has transformed its safety and effectiveness over the years. Just as football gear has advanced from simple leather helmets to sophisticated, high-tech armor, PPE has undergone significant changes to better protect our most valuable asset: our people.
In the high-stakes game of drilling operations, PPE can be considered our “prevent defense” against various risks and exposures.
From the protective helmets that guard against falling objects to the flame-resistant clothing that shields workers from intense heat, each piece of PPE plays a crucial role in minimizing injuries and helping ensure that every worker can stay in the game and make it home safely to their families.
So, let’s suit up, lace up your cleats (or steel-toed boots in our case) and Actively C.A.R.E. for ourselves and others through consistent use of PPE.
