Light Demarcation, Collision Prevention, and Recycling: Experience of SIB - DAMEL LLC, LLC Sibkor, and Gazneftservice

On November 19, our webinar will examine three practical case studies at the intersection of engineering safety controls, risk reduction for heavy machinery, and industrial ecology. Industry practitioners will share their experience in implementing dynamic light demarcation in workshops, collision avoidance systems in open-pit mines, and industrial waste recycling technology delivering an economic benefit of over 200 million rubles per year.

10:00 – 10:40 | Dynamic Light Demarcation of Lifting Equipment Hazard Zones Using GOBO Projectors

Speaker: Kseniya Lazareva, Deputy Executive Director for Production Control and OHS, SIB - DAMEL LLC

Webinar topics:

• Safety must be visible: why workers physically lose track of hazard zone boundaries amid workshop noise and faded floor markings, and how to fix it

• A moving light perimeter: how dynamic light projection moves along with the load and is instantly recognized by personnel without instructions or reminders

• Operating where other methods fail: how to ensure safety amid high noise levels, earplug use, and limited visibility from the crane cabin, when sirens and floor paint are ineffective

• An engineering barrier instead of the human factor: automatic projector activation via the overhead crane controller, eliminating reliance on the alertness of the rigger and crane operator

• Shifting to risk prevention: why workers perceive the light perimeter as reliable personal protection rather than just another restriction.

10:40 – 11:20 | Managing Run-Over and Collision Risks for Heavy Machinery in Open-Pit Mines

Speaker: Evgeniy Likhachyov, Industrial Safety Director, LLC Sibkor

Webinar topics:

• Anatomy of incidents: what human and situational factors contribute to run-over and collision risks involving heavy machinery in open-pit mines

• Monitoring human condition: how a driver alertness monitoring system detects fatigue and prevents operator errors

• Situational awareness: how the 360-degree anti-collision system eliminates blind spots and warns of dangerous proximity to obstacles and personnel

• Technology synergy: the combined effect of operating both systems together, current project status, and the target safety model at the open-pit mine

• Technology + discipline: why even the smartest sensors deliver sustainable results only when combined with strict organizational measures.

11:20 – 12:00 | Reducing Environmental Impact by Recycling Production Waste into Waterproofing Membranes

Speaker: Vladislav Gumennik, Head of the Industrial Safety Department, Gazneftservice

Webinar topics:

• From waste to profit: how industrial recycling of IBC totes became a tool for reducing the company's environmental footprint and operating costs

• The dead end of traditional disposal: why selling used containers and landfilling fail to solve the problem, and how an economically viable alternative was found

• Closed-loop technology: the journey from a spent IBC tote to a finished, high-quality polymer waterproofing sheet

• Measurable environmental impact: reducing landfill waste volumes and effectively replacing virgin conventional materials

• Circular economy: how to turn an environmental initiative into a verified economic benefit exceeding 200 million rubles per year.
