Navigating by Five Guiding Principles
Since Schooner Petroleum Services' inception, our ship has sailed under the safekeeping of five stars. But these symbols are not just celestial objects that shine their brilliance down upon us; they are our guiding lights. Safety, Quality, Reliability, Versatility, and Integrity are the five guiding principles by which Schooner Petroleum Services navigates. These beacons direct us in conducting safe business practices and establish the models for genuine customer care. Plotting our course based on these guiding principles solidifies our position that we are truly committed to our people, our jobs, and our customers.
Cooperation in detecting workplace hazards, reporting dangerous conditions, and controlling unsafe environments is of primary concern in every one of our daily activities and is the direct responsibility of all persons involved. At Schooner Petroleum Services, we firmly believe that all occupational injuries are preventable. Our effective accident prevention program addresses safe working practices and the "recognition, reporting & reaction" to dangerous conditions.
For us to achieve the goal of Target Zero, no accidents and incidents in and out of the work place, we must be conscious of our surroundings and focused on our assignments. Within Schooner Petroleum Services, safety is not just a condition of employment; it is a responsibility we have to our families, to our fellow workers, and to ourselves. "Safety First - Safety Last"
For Schooner Petroleum Services, the intended focus of our business is to improve the productivity and efficiency of drilling, completion, and flow-back operations through a variety of pressure-related services and equipment. The true value-added discipline that we provide to our customers is ensuring the quality of our products from workshop to well-site and back again.
Taking ownership of one's work is critical to the success and development of our entire organization. At Schooner Petroleum Services, we are methodical in our approach, systematic in our thinking, and thorough in our performance. In particular, the processes by which we assemble and test equipment include a series of quality control checks that minimize mistakes and improve reliability. Furthermore, we continually seek to identify opportunities that advance our rigorous standards.
Throughout the organization, Schooner Petroleum Services is committed to setting the highest standards of quality within our industry. For us, quality has become more of an expectation than a destination.
For nearly three decades, our customers have relied on us to provide superior service and top-notch equipment. But this reliance is not based solely on our attention to detail and solid craftsmanship; it is founded upon a quality management standard that is backed by a team of dedicated individuals.
At Schooner Petroleum Services, our products are "tried & tested...and then retested". Our process management system standardizes the testing and reporting of mechanical integrity so that no shortcut is taken. In an industry where uncertainties create delays, assurances can be made that every piece of equipment that leaves our shops is up to "The Schooner Standard."
Running a tight ship is not just the result of defined procedures though; it also takes a level of commitment from the entire crew. We, at Schooner Petroleum Services, take pride in our jobs and pledge that our work is not complete until our customers are satisfied. Sometimes in business, the simplest tasks can produce the most impressionable results. For Schooner Petroleum Services, this means "doing whatever it takes to get the job done right and on time".
Within Schooner Petroleum Services, versatility translates to a variable set of abilities. It is the ability by specialists to control unexpected situations with prior experience and knowledge. It is the ability by technicians to adapt to customer needs by developing unique solutions. It is the ability by a company to offer a variety of inventive products to service a dynamic industry.
At Schooner Petroleum Services, the broad knowledge base and experienced backgrounds of our employees allows us to provide critical support to our customers. Our skill and training makes us experts in our profession. Our expansive knowledge of our equipment makes us masters of our trade.
By anticipating demands and customizing equipment to meet those demands, we position ourselves to quickly resolve our customers' problems. This versatility is imperative to adapt to the ever-changing needs of our industry. Success hinges on the ability to react; and so it is with a sense of urgency that we act upon all of our customers' requests.
In this day and age, a firm adherence to a code of ethical conduct is not always a given. Those that are unique and stand out embrace a common virtue - integrity. At Schooner Petroleum Services, we willingly conform to a standard of doing what is right and treating others the way that we ourselves want to be treated.
The pride we put into our work reflects the content of our character. The respect we bestow upon our customers runs true to our very nature. And it is an inherent trust that binds our actions to the promises we make.
Holding ourselves to this ideal creates a level of accountability that betters ourselves and the organization we represent. To this, our commitment and dedication is a testament to our integrity. We are proud of who we are and what we do. At Schooner Petroleum Services, it's more than business, it's personal.
