Congratulations to the officers and crew who served on these vessels during the fourth quarter of 2017. They deserve our applause.

To achieve our Operational Leadership objectives of getting everyone home safely and delivering flawless customer service, we all need to strictly follow procedures and diligently use all the risk management tools available. The best way to begin is by initiating a firm practice of persistently reporting hazards, which in the long run are the root cause of all injuries, incidents and accidents.

We all enjoy working in a safe work environment; one that gets us home safely to our family and friends and makes us proud of the Teekay banner that we sail under. Therefore, let us continue in our quest to report all the hazards that we observe and identify, so that we have fewer personal and operational incidents as well as enhance our vetting performance.

Once again, well done to the ships that are receiving this award and we encourage the other vessels to follow the fine example set by these four vessels to step up their hazard reporting.
