3 Safety management
3.1 Introduction
To assist OGP Members and their business partners in maintaining continuously high levels of improvement in safety management, many OGP Members have required, as a matter of policy, that all their business units and their aviation operators should have Safety Management Systems (SMS) and safety cases/expositions in place.
3.1.1 Aircraft operators safety management system guidelines
Some OGP Members may require the following of aircraft operators:
. 
Reduce the risks of flying for its company/contractor personnel to that as low as reasonably practicable.

. 
Achieve standards of aviation safety in air transport services contracted to OGP Members that are targeted to levels comparable to those of major transport category aeroplanes and helicop-ters operators.

. 
Aircraft operators having standing contracts1 with the OGP Member, to produce a Health, Safety & Environment Case (HSE-Case)2, 3 or Safety Exposition, acceptable to the OGP Member.

. 
Setting targets for improvement and to measure, appraise and report safety performance.

3.1.2 Aviation safety cases
The objective of an aircraft operator’s Aviation Safety Case is to provide assurance that the contrac-tor has a safe operation, that it has identified and assessed the major hazards and safety risks in its operations, and that it can manage them to levels that are as low as reasonably practicable. This includes having systems in place to prevent escalation and to minimise injury/damage in the event an incident does occur or a hazard is reported.
The following applies:
. 
An operation specific Aviation Safety Case may be required for all operations of a duration of one year or more and for all operations of less than one year’s duration involving more than 50 flying hours per month or involving particularly hazardous operations (including all offshore operations). An example of the Safety Cases requirements used by some OGP Members for these and other contract types is given at Appendix 2.

. 
All contractors tendering for a new contract, which requires an Aviation Safety Case (in accord-ance with the preceding bullet point above), may be allowed to submit a Provisional Safety Case in support of their tender proposal.
