Protecting our workforce, our clients, and the general public from injuries and property damage is a core priority of our corporate philosophy.  Because of this a “safety first” policy has been integrated into all areas of operation and is put into practice by all Gregg personnel on a daily basis. We attribute a large portion of our overall success as a company to the significance we place on safety.  Our commitment to safety has allowed us to effectively manage the risks inherent in our industry, provide a safe, sensible, and productive work environment and consistently prevent injuries as well as control costs.

We consider a keystone of our success to be that our crews have been working as part of our team for periods much longer than most drilling contractors with an average of 6+ years, many for over 15 years. They are well trained in a range of site investigation and remediation techniques.

A key element of our ‘safety first” policy is the behavior based Health Monitoring & Safety Program we have implemented.  All Gregg employees receive training, including regular updates and refreshers. Gregg’s program is designed to give our team members the ability to:

1. Evaluate the safety issues for each job task they perform
2. Properly minimize site hazards
3. Respond properly to incidents should the need arise
4. Stop work when they believe or perceive unsafe work conditions exist

Health Monitoring & Safety Program Overview

• Health and Safety Orientation for New Hires

• OSHA certified (in accordance with 29 CFR 1910.120)
  • 40-hour HAZWOPER
  • 8-hr Annual Refresher

Each member of our team has a personal stake in the success of our company and can be counted on to provide the highest level of service possible.

Introducing Woocheen, the business arm of Sealaska

Sealaska is proudly owned by 25,000 Tlingit, Haida and Tsimshian shareholders with more than 10,000 years of ancestral ties to the oceans, forests and communities of Southeast Alaska​.

The name Woocheen is derived from the Tlingit word wooch.éen, which can be roughly translated as working together with the resources and environment around us.

• Offshore, nearshore and land-based site characterization

Employing a global reach and a team of more than 1,200 engineers, scientists and other professionals, we are quickly becoming a leader in our industries.

Thanks to the success of the Woocheen operating platforms – food, land and water – our revenue has grown six-fold to roughly $1B since 2015.
