WASHINGTON, D.C. Since its launch in May 2019, more than 6,200 subscribers have signed up for the BSEE!Safe text notification service.

The Bureau of Safety and Environmental Enforcement (BSEE) is the first regulator in the world to provide critical safety information directly to workers via text message.

BSEE Director Scott Angelle said: Offshore safety was the driver for this initiative. Steadily increasing subscriptions to the BSEE!Safe text messaging service demonstrates BSEEs leadership in pioneering ways to reach offshore workers.

The BSEE!Safe texts contain links to the bureaus published Safety Alerts and Bulletins which include safety recommendations resulting from incidents and near misses on offshore oil and gas facilities.

More than 120,000 text messages have been sent since its inception, according to BSEE.

BSEE!Safe is an efficient, timely way to communicate directly to the men and women who wear the hard hats and steel-toed boots; who kiss their families goodbye and set out to the OCS to do the hard work of fueling our nation, said Angelle.

Subscribers maintain their own contact information and can opt out of the service at any time.

In addition, the bureau has issued 41 Safety Alerts and Bulletins since the launch of the service.
