Safety Management Systems Now Offering H₂S Program

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

January 8, 2012- Safety Management Systems is now offering an H2S program to add to its already impressive suite of industrial services.

Hydrogen sulfide gas, or H2S, is the second most deadly gas and develops along with crude oil and natural gas. Because of this, having the proper H2S safety measures in place is imperative to any company working with oil & gas. The new SMS H2S program offers the oil & gas industry the most comprehensive H2S solution on the market. SMS boasts highly-trained H2S technicians along with the best equipment and most advanced technology available in a rental program. 

SMS attracts some of the most experienced H2S technicians in the field, and they have helped build an adaptive program that is customized for every client. The H2S standard operating procedures will be dynamic, using a guided intranet system to mediate discussion and develop the best practices for different clients’ needs.

Jody Herbert, who has more than 10 years of safety and leadership experience in the oil & gas industry, will be overseeing all H2S technicians. He previously served as an HSE specialist for a number of corporations, including Chevron, Apache and Stone Energy, and also has experience as an H2S technician with Total Safety.

“For years SMS has offered the oil & gas industry the finest industry services,” says Herbert. “The addition of the SMS H2S program extends our already proven ability to provide our customers with the most respected and complete health and safety systems in the industry.”

SMS is a division of Acadian and one of the largest health, safety, environmental, medical, security and training service companies in the United States.

Since 1971, Acadian has been committed to providing the highest level of emergency medical care and transportation possible. In the past decade, the company has expanded to include a diverse suite of services in health, safety, and transportation. Acadian’s six divisions are Acadian Ambulance Service, Acadian Monitoring Services, Air Med, Executive Aircraft Charter Service, National EMS Academy and Safety Management Systems.
