The US oil and gas industry is a multi-billion-dollar business that’s essential to the supply chain. And with thousands of employees, this industry is labor intensive and hazardous. But when employers use the right precautions, they can mitigate risks on oil rigs. If you’re interested, keep reading to learn tips for improving employee safety on oil rigs.
Seek Safety Certifications
Safety certifications promote workplace safety. Oil rigs must comply with industry standards and regulations to receive accreditations. With many certifications available, employers must seek certifications related to their company. For example, ISNetworld and API 936 are two of the most important oil and gas certifications employers can get for oil rigs.
Ensure Familiarity With the Workplace
Employers need to provide oil rig workers with proper safety and job training. Doing this will allow workers to understand their roles and be aware of potential hazards. When people understand their space, they can proceed with caution while performing job tasks. New and seasoned workers should take tours of the oil rig and stay updated on new safety policies and changes.
Coordinate With the Local Emergency Response Team
Another great tip for improving employee safety on oil rigs is to coordinate with local emergency response teams. Mistakes and accidents happen, and working with response teams can prevent accidents from becoming fatalities. It’s essential to establish a solid relationship and frequently communicate with teams to let them know about upcoming projects. Doing so will allow them to be on standby in case of any incidents.
Monitor Physical and Mental Health
Periodical physical and mental health contributes to employee safety on oil rigs. Working on an oil rig is a labor-intensive job that can affect physical and mental health. From stress and body pains to a lack of sleep, this industry can take a toll on employees’ bodies. Employers should actively monitor workers’ health and perform daily check-ins. Simply asking, “How are you doing today?” or “How do you feel with your workload?” can create an open dialogue between employers and workers. If need be, employers can adjust the workplace to fit workers’ needs.

SECRETARY-GENERAL/AFRICAN UNION
The Secretary-General is back in New York after attending the African Union summit in Addis Ababa.
In a press conference as he departed on Saturday, the Secretary-General said that over three days in Addis Ababa, he had met many leaders from across the continent to discuss challenges across the spectrum. And he emphasizes that despite the many tests facing Africa, we start from a position of strength.
At the same time, the Secretary-General drew attention to a United Nations Security Council where Africa still inexplicably lacks permanent representation and an international financial architecture where the power and place of Africa is not fairly at the table.
SECURITY COUNCIL
This morning, the Security Council held a briefing on threats to international peace and security. Briefing Council members, Miroslav Jenča, the Assistant Secretary-General for Europe, Central Asia, and the Americas, noted that in one week, we will mark three tragic years since Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine, launched in violation of the UN Charter and international law. In this context, Mr. Jenča said, today’s ten-year anniversary of Security Council resolution 2202 - that called for the full implementation of the now defunct Minsk agreements - is an opportunity to recall past diplomatic efforts towards de-escalation and a peaceful settlement of the conflict.
He noted that the Secretary-General has underlined, time and again, that any peaceful settlement must respect the sovereignty, independence and territorial integrity of Ukraine, in line with the UN Charter, international law and resolutions of the General Assembly. Mr. Jenča said that the UN encourages dialogue among all stakeholders and welcomes all genuine efforts and initiatives, with the full participation of Ukraine and the Russian Federation, that would alleviate the impact of the war on civilians and de-escalate the conflict.

United Nations Video: Football for the Goals - Norwegian Football Federation on the Initiative | SDGs | United Nations
In this episode of the Football for the Goals Q&A video series, we sit down with President of the Norwegian Football Federation Lise Klaverness. We discuss why her organisation joined the Football for the Goals Initiative, how sustainability is integrated in the Norwegian football ecosystem, and her ambition for further growth of the Federation’s projects.
The Norwegian Football Federation joined FFTG in July 2022, and is responsible for organizing national teams, leagues, and football-related activities in the country, working to develop and promote the sport at all levels. The NFF also oversees the administration and regulations of football in Norway, as well as fostering youth development and grassroots initiatives.
--------------------------------------------
Football for the Goals is a United Nations initiative that provides a platform for the global football community to engage with and advocate for the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). It is an opportunity to build on football’s powerful and influential reach and to work together to become agents of change by aligning messaging, strategies and operations with the aspirations of the SDGs.
This initiative will inspire and guide the world of football – from confederations, national associations, leagues and clubs, to players’ associations, organized fan groups, as well as media and commercial partners – to build on existing sustainability approaches and to implement SDG strategies that lead to behavioural change.
Members may not only aspire to develop sustainable practices, but may also act as champions of the SDGs during the Decade of Action (2020-2030). Members will use their visibility and outreach power via tournaments, players, corporate brand exposure, media and fan communities to raise the profile of the SDGs through amplification and advocacy. They will inspire action by demonstrating how these sustainable practices can be mainstreamed through any business model, including sport.

Press Conference by António Guterres, Secretary-General of the United Nations, at the 38th African Union Summit (14th January to 16th February 2025, Addis Ababa, Ethiopia).

United Nations Video: Africa: Booming and enterprising population - UN Chief | United Nations
Remarks by António Guterres, Secretary-General of the United Nations, at the 38th Ordinary session of the Assembly of the Heads of state and Government of the African Union.
-------------------------------------------------
Addressing the African Union (AU) Summit Secretary-General António Guterres said, “the international community must come together to stop the flow of weapons and the bankrolling of bloodshed” in Sudan, and stressed that in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) “regional escalation must be avoided at all costs.”
Speaking at the African Union Headquarters in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, amid conflict and tensions in several AU member states, the Secretary-General said, "the world must never forget that Africa is the victim of two colossal and compounded injustices.”
First, Guterres said, “the profound impact of colonialism and the trans-Atlantic slave trade,” which roots “stretch back centuries and the bitter fruit continues to affect Africans and people of African descent to this day."
Second, he noted "Africa was under colonial domination when today’s multilateral system was created -- and that injustice endures.”
The Secretary-General stressed that there was “no excuse that Africa still lacks permanent representation in the 21st century."
Sudan, he said, “is being torn apart before our eyes -- and is now home to the world’s largest displacement crisis and famine.”
In the DRC, Guterres continued, “the Congolese people have been suffering – yet again – from a brutal cycle of violence. And the fighting that is raging in South Kivu – as a result of the continuation of the M23 offensive -- threatens to push the entire region over the precipice.
He called for “justice” when it comes to Africa’s critical minerals and said, “too often, your countries are plundered – bound to the bottom of value chains – as others grow rich on your resources.”
The Secretary-General stressed, “Africa’s minerals must benefit Africa’s people."
At a later press encounter, the UN Chief told reporters that in the DRC, "the risks of regional expansion are very high at the present moment, since the offensive into Bukavu, welcoming the “important things that were agreed and now need to be put in place,” namely the neutralization of the FDLR, the retreat of the Rwandan forces, “and at the same time, to have diplomacy and dialogue guaranteeing that the territorial integrity of the Democratic Republic of Congo is maintained."
Asked about the situation in the Occupied Palestinian Territory, he said, "it would be inconceivable that the war would start in Gaza again. The suffering of the Palestinian people would be absolutely intolerable. So, our objective now, supporting Qatar, supporting Egypt, supporting the efforts that the United States also have recently, is to make sure that the war does not start again and that phases two and three of the negotiations are successful."
Guterres said, "obviously, we have a problem in the United Nations, and that problem is related to the geopolitical divides, and the geopolitical divides make the Security Council most times ineffective when we have serious crises. And so, it's very difficult for the UN, with a paralyzed Security Council, to play an effective role in relation to the solution of many of the conflicts that we have in the world. And that is why the reform of the Security Council is so important, and that is why I insisted once again today, for that reform."
The theme of this year’s Summit is – Justice for Africans and People of African Descent Through Reparations.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky says he has rejected US President Donald Trump’s proposal to give the US access to $500bn of Ukraine’s vast reserves of critical minerals.
Ukraine holds huge deposits of rare earth minerals and natural resources; including lithium, titanium, coal, gas, oil and uranium.
Many of the minerals, however, are in areas now controlled by Russian troops.

The Ukrainian military released this footage of a disastrous Russian assault in Kursk, a region inside Russia that has been partially held by Ukraine since August 2024.
Russian armoured vehicles flying the red flag of the defunct Soviet Union rolled through a Ukrainian minefield before being targeted from above by drones.
Soldiers of the ‘elite’ Russian 155th Naval Infantry Brigade marines were attacking a defensive line held by the Ukrainian 47th Mechanized Brigade.
After a Russian counterattack ramped up inside Kursk oblast in November 2024, Ukrainian troops have retained most of the 250-square-mile salient and will hope to use occupied Russian territory as a bargaining chip in any peace talks.
Elsewhere on the frontline of the conflict, Russia is making slow but costly gains.
Video posted by the Ukrainian 110th Mechanized Brigade shows another Russian attack destroyed in Donetsk.
While another clip supposedly posted by a Russian soldier shows a road in the same region littered with destroyed Russian military vehicles.
Both sides will hope to make gains that will put them in a strong negotiating position.
US and Russian officials are meeting in Saudi Arabia to discuss a diplomatic resolution to the conflict, but Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelenskyy said he would "never accept any decisions between the United States and Russia about Ukraine, never.”

ODN Video: Raw Drone Footage Shows Destruction of Northern Gaza Strip
Drone footage reveals the staggering devastation in northern Gaza after 500 days of conflict. Captured over Jabaliya, the aerial images show entire neighborhoods reduced to rubble, with makeshift tents scattered among the ruins. Survivors walk through the destruction, searching for remnants of their lives.
This grim milestone marks 500 days since the October 7, 2023, Hamas attack on southern Israel, which triggered one of the most devastating wars in recent history. The fighting displaced 90% of Gaza's 2.3 million residents at its peak. Although a fragile ceasefire has held for nearly a month, hundreds of thousands have returned to find their homes obliterated, human remains buried beneath debris, and unexploded ordnance posing constant danger.
The war has claimed over 48,000 Palestinian lives—predominantly women and children—according to Gaza's Health Ministry. As families attempt to rebuild amidst unimaginable destruction, this footage underscores the immense human and physical toll of war.

ODN Video: Moment Hamas Parade Three Israeli Hostages Before Release in Gaza
This was the moment three Israeli hostages were released in Khan Younis, southern Gaza, on Saturday morning.
The captives are Israeli-Russian Alexander Troufanov, 29, Israeli-American Sagui Dekel-Chen, 36 and 49-year-old Israeli-Argentine Iair Horn.
The three men could be seen holding certificates, gift bags and flags during an orchestrated parade on stage before Hamas handed them over to the Red Cross to be taken to Israel.
When Sagui was abducted on October 7th 2023, his wife was eight months pregnant with their third child.
In a video shared by the IDF, he was reunited with his wife and told he has a one-year-old daughter.
The Israeli government also shared a comparison picture of Iair from before and after his abduction.

International Video: M23 rebels, Congo riches and war in the DRC | Explained
M23, a Rwanda-backed armed rebel group, are fighting in the Democratic Republic of the Congo - and they’re gaining ground.
[Subscribe: https://bit.ly/C4_News_Subscribe]
They made headline news early in January when they took the largest city in the east, Goma. Now, reports say their troops have entered the second-largest city in the region, Bukavu.
M23 have formed an alliance with other groups who say their ultimate goal is to topple the DRC’s President Felix Tshisekedi and rule the country.
For some, that’s cause for celebration. For others, it’s yet another brutal phase in a devastating conflict that has spanned decades.
The group says it is fighting to defend the rights of the Tutsi ethnic group - who were brutally slaughtered in the Rwandan genocide of 1994.
But the Congolese government says M23 is the puppet army of its neighbour and enemy Rwanda, sent to plunder the country’s mineral wealth.
We’re going to tell you what’s really driving today's conflict between M23 and the Congolese army and how the outcome of the war could have implications for millions of people.
