Abstract This paper explores the different conceptual meanings of the term resilience as it is used and interpreted by industry actors in the Norwegian oil and gas industry, as well as the possible wider ramifications of this use. This is done by presenting three different theoretical readings, or stories, of the recent proliferation of the term in the industry. The stories are supported by empirical material stemming from document studies, interviews and ethnographic fieldwork in the industry. Safety Management academics and practitioners in the industry generally rely on conceptions derived from Resilience Engineering (RE), which is consequently the perspective used in the first story. Here, we outline the RE-perspective and explore how it might justify the spread of, and apparent need for, resilience, as well as those empirical qualities of operations that the concept purports to refer to. The second story utilizes the concept of organizational bullshit in order to examine some of the ways in which the resilience concept is used to impress and invoke organizational legitimacy, without necessarily having much tangible connection to day-to-day operations. The third reading connects the resilience concept to the rise of neoliberalism, and explores its potential for depoliticizing risk and danger as well as facilitating the responsibilization of offshore workers. In addition to presenting the different conceptual meanings of resilience in the Norwegian oil and gas sector, the paper also provides resources for discussing the potential ramifications of these conceptions

挪威海上部门弹性安全管理的其他故事:弹性工程、废话和危险的去政治化

摘要 本文探讨了挪威石油和天然气行业的行业参与者使用和解释的术语“弹性”的不同概念含义,以及这种用法可能产生的更广泛的影响。这是通过介绍该术语最近在行业中激增的三种不同的理论读物或故事来完成的。这些故事得到了来自该行业的文件研究、访谈和民族志实地考察的经验材料的支持。行业中的安全管理学者和从业者通常依赖于弹性工程 (RE) 的概念,因此这是第一个故事中使用的观点。在这里,我们概述了可再生能源的观点,并探讨了它如何证明弹性的传播和明显的需求是合理的,以及该概念所指的那些操作的经验质量。第二个故事利用组织废话的概念来检查弹性概念用于给人留下深刻印象和调用组织合法性的一些方式,而不必与日常运营有很多有形的联系。三读将弹性概念与新自由主义的兴起联系起来,并探讨其将风险和危险非政治化以及促进离岸工人责任化的潜力。除了介绍挪威石油和天然气部门弹性的不同概念含义外,本文还提供了用于讨论这些概念的潜在后果的资源 第二个故事利用组织废话的概念来检查弹性概念用于给人留下深刻印象和调用组织合法性的一些方式,而不必与日常运营有很多有形的联系。三读将复原力概念与新自由主义的兴起联系起来,并探讨其使风险和危险非政治化以及促进离岸工人责任化的潜力。除了介绍挪威石油和天然气部门弹性的不同概念含义外,本文还提供了用于讨论这些概念的潜在后果的资源 第二个故事利用组织废话的概念来检查弹性概念用于给人留下深刻印象和调用组织合法性的一些方式,而不必与日常运营有很多有形的联系。三读将复原力概念与新自由主义的兴起联系起来,并探讨其使风险和危险非政治化以及促进离岸工人责任化的潜力。除了介绍挪威石油和天然气部门弹性的不同概念含义外,本文还提供了用于讨论这些概念的潜在后果的资源 不一定与日常运营有很多切实的联系。三读将复原力概念与新自由主义的兴起联系起来,并探讨其使风险和危险非政治化以及促进离岸工人责任化的潜力。除了介绍挪威石油和天然气部门弹性的不同概念含义外,本文还提供了用于讨论这些概念的潜在后果的资源 不一定与日常运营有很多切实的联系。三读将复原力概念与新自由主义的兴起联系起来,并探讨其使风险和危险非政治化以及促进离岸工人责任化的潜力。除了介绍挪威石油和天然气部门弹性的不同概念含义外,本文还提供了用于讨论这些概念的潜在后果的资源
