SP-2001 – Load Safety and Restraining Specification – PDO

SP-2001 – Load Safety and Restraining Specification is about PDO operations that rely on road transport of cargo and heavy equipment to and from remote locations. Recent incidents and focused inspections resulting from incidents have identified that improperly secured loads of cargo or equipment contribute to the incidence and severity of road accidents.
This Specification describes PDO’s minimum requirements for load restraint in road transport.

This Specification applies to:

• all PDO, Contractors and their subcontractors, vendors, and suppliers staff (undertaking work-related road transport journeys) and/or road transport activities (in the execution of PDO contracts); and,
• all PDO and Contractors’ vehicles and equipment (when operating in the execution of PDO contracts).

The requirements of this Specification that apply to Contractors shall apply to Vendors and Suppliers when delivering goods to PDO interior locations (including to warehouses and drilling rigs) on behalf of PDO, a Contractor, or Sub-Contractor.
