The latest issue of The Regulator magazine

Our first issue of The Regulator magazine for 2025 is hot off the press! 

In this issue, we break down NOPSEMA's five National Priorities - key areas where sustained regulatory attention is needed to ensure that resources are used effectively and industry performance continues to improve.

We also outline some of the changes to the Offshore Petroleum and Greenhouse Gas Storage Act 2006 (OPGGS Act), which will come into effect on 12 June 2025.

These changes, ranging from strengthening the role of HSRs to modernising diving regulations, will support industry and NOPSEMA to ensure the ongoing health and safety of workers. 

We also report on our recent 2025 HSR Forum, held in partnership with Australian Energy Producers and the Australian Council of Trade Unions (ACTU). 

Now in its fourth year, the forum gave health and safety representatives an opportunity to hear from experts, share their experiences and network with other HSRs.

The forum also featured the inaugural HSR Awards, acknowledging offshore HSRs who have excelled in their role. 

You can read all about these stories and much more in the latest issue of The Regulator.
