– STEER honors companies and organizations in the Eagle Ford Shale –
SAN ANTONIO – (December 11, 2013) – The South Texas Energy and Economic Roundtable (STEER), announced Dynamic Industries as the recipient of an award in the Safety Performance category at its inaugural 2013 Eagle Ford Excellence Awards held in San Antonio.
“Dynamic Industries is committed to maintaining world class Safety, Health, and Environmental (SH&E) performance in all of the areas that we operate, says Matt Oubre, Executive Vice President for Dynamic Industries. “To be recognized by STEER, an organization that was founded by the largest companies who operate in the Eagle Ford, is the greatest kind of recognition. Dynamic Industries truly believes that our employees are our greatest asset and we operate in a manner that is consistent with this belief. We have worked diligently to fully integrate our SH&E policies and procedures into our operations as we believe one cannot exist without the other. It is an honor to receive this award from STEER and we look forward to continuing our investment and growth in the Eagle Ford area.”
The award recognized Dynamic Industries for developing a world class SH&E management system database allowing them to communicate, corporate-wide, safety alerts, meetings and safety moments in real-time. Their safety practices are reinforced regularly through multiple safety campaigns and their corporate motto “Everyone Arrives Home Safely.”
“STEER stands by its commitment to protect and preserve the health of the environment, communities and individuals in our South Texas communities, and the Eagle Ford Excellence Award recipients set the standard for good corporate citizenship. STEER wanted to create a forum to recognize companies that make this a priority,” says Omar Garcia, president of STEER.
This inaugural Eagle Ford Excellence Award event provides oil and gas companies and their contractors an opportunity to be acknowledged for their efforts in preserving the environment, contributing to the communities in which they work, and promoting safety in and around the workplace. The awards are given to applicants that exemplify innovation, take initiative and benefit the greater South Texas region.
“The economic transformation taking place in the Eagle Ford Shale is
remarkable. South Texas transitioned from being one of the poorest areas in Texas to a thriving region, but it is also important to preserve and protect the rapidly growing counties along the shale and their residents during this time of swift change. The Eagle Ford Excellence Awards allow for recognition of such efforts,” says Henry Cisneros, keynote speaker at the awards ceremony.
