From the analysis, it was deduced that novice civil engineers are having moderate knowledge on the HSE elements of oil and gas industry. Lowest RII was observed for hazard analysis, prevention and safety. Comparison of senior and novice civil engineers revealed that there is significant gap between their knowledge levels of HSE elements. Interview approach showed that project managers expect novice civil engineers to have basic awareness, knowledge and skills related to the industry safety. Gaps were observed in terms of novice civil engineer knowledge on basic HSE elements and their accountability in sustaining a safety environment.
