"Hess is raising the bar"

The qualities of successful performance transcend national borders and cultures.  In this video, Eivind Samuelsen, Production Planning & Optimization Team Lead, explains how the team approach has led to nine years without a lost time incident, and Matt Sorenson, Hess construction group electrician, comments on the company's "genuine commitment to safety."

As Samuelsen explains, "Hess is raising the bar."
