(OVID) is an
important milestone in our OCIMF efforts to improve marine safety.
Our offshore segment is vibrant and growing,
OVID will provide valuable
processes to ensure that our industry continues to focus on the safety of all
our offshore people and assets.
Similar processes have led to step changes in the safety of our oil and gas
ships, I know OVID
will do the same for our offshore operations"
