Setting the standard for safety

The American Fuel & Petrochemical Manufacturers (AFPM) has recognized four Phillips 66 sites for demonstrating excellent program innovation and leadership in 2024. 

Elite Gold Safety Award: Ferndale Refinery in Washington and Rodeo Renewable Energy Complex (RREC) in California were among the top 5% in the industry.

Elite Silver Safety Award: Billings Refinery in Montana and Los Angeles Refinery in California were in the top 10% of the industry.

“These awards are a testament to the dedication, leadership, and innovation demonstrated by our teams,” said Rich Harbison, Executive Vice President, Refining. “Being ranked at the top of our industry is an incredible achievement, and it reflects our unwavering commitment to safety excellence and supports our vision of world-class operations.”

More than 250 AFPM member facilities received the application for the safety awards; 17 safety professionals comprising the selection committee named the winners. 

AFPM is a leading trade association for U.S. refiners and chemical manufacturers. The awards are part of a comprehensive program developed by the AFPM Safety and Health Committee to promote safe operations in the refining and petrochemical industries. 

Employees from RREC, Ferndale, Billings and Los Angeles refineries accept safety awards at the annual AFPM conference in Austin, Texas.
