Izwan Megat, UMW Oil and Gas: Engaging with people at the rig site is critical for safety because 'safety is managing people'

摘要

ALTHOUGH IZWAN MEGAT HAD always liked working with his hands and even earned his bachelors degree in mechanical engineering from the University of Tulsa in 1999, it wasn't until he landed his first job that he learned what mechanical engineering was truly about. "I went to the drafting room at this small manufacturing company in Pryor, Okla., and started making all these sketch drawings of bandsaws, which is what this company produced. But once I was done, the president of company told me to take those drawings and go build them," Mr Megat recalled.
