The Safe TO Work (STOW) is a joint effort of the Energy Chamber, the Association of Upstream Operators of Trinidad & Tobago (AUOTT) and the Point Lisas Energy Association (PLEA) to develop consistent health, safety and environmental (HSE) requirements to pre-qualify contractors in the energy sector.  The ultimate expectation is that local service contractors will have a better chance of winning contracts with the major oil and gas companies in Trinidad & Tobago.

STOW Achievements

The achievements of the Safe TO Work (STOW) programme over the last financial year were the most significant since the Energy Chamber began implementation in April 2006.  Among the successes over 2010-2011 were the certification of 19 contracting companies and 1 major operating company; 5 additional oil and gas operating companies signing the STOW Charter; and formal agreement from most of the signatories of the Charter on a timeline for mandatory STOW certification of their contractors. 

The move to make STOW certification mandatory for prequalification of contractors in the energy sector, started in the Energy Chamber’s 2009-2010 financial year and continued in 2010-2011.
