- Ensure compliance with regulatory requirements, safety standards, and Halliburton policies and procedures.
- Drive incident reporting, root cause analysis, and continuous improvement initiatives.
- Lead, develop, and manage project teams, ensuring personnel competency, certifications, and training compliance.
