IOGP high potential event reports

High Potential Events are defined to be any incident or near miss that could, in other circumstances, have realistically resulted in one or more fatalities.

IOGP has been gathering high potential descriptions from its members since 2000. These include upstream significant events reported both by companies and contractors. Event reports are categorised by region, country, location (onshore/offshore), cause and activity at the time of the event.

The entire database is now available and searchable on the IOGP data website. Access is free to all.
