Enhanced Google Translation of a Reuters report published in Dutch on 9 July 2015
Shell has therefore not fulfilled the high expectations of safety management within the company.
Shell Moerdijk should be more critical of security risks in the company.
Thus concludes the Safety Board in a report on the explosion at the company’s plant on June 3 last year, which was published Thursday.
“Shell was not aware of the chemical reaction that eventually led to an explosion,” according to the study.
”As a result, employees were not able to intervene in time.Especially in the implementation of changes in production processes, equipment and raw materials the company must do better to consider new risks that arise here.”
According to Shell the explosion resulted from pressure in the reactor of the plant.This was in one of the factories where the raw materials for the production of plastics are produced.
The TRUTH will set you FREE.
