Key Safety Services Inc is a provider of services and equipment important for the safe exploration and development of the oil and gas industry.

With four offices in Alberta, Canada and over 100 full-time employees, Key Safety has targeted the Canadian industry. The company’s head office in Sylvan Lake is its base for international services.
The company was formed in September 2000 after a corporate name change from Safety Boss Canada (1993) Ltd.
Key Safety's alliance with the Proactive Group provides specialised emergency response planning services. The Proactive Group provides ERP planning services for critical wells (drilling and completions), reduced or corporate supplements and specialises in facility or area-inclusive ERPs. Resident or Trapper information packages and visitations and flaring notifications are also provided.
Key Safety is a member of the consortium of companies working under the MDIOS (Mackenzie Delta Integrated Oil Services) on the development of the oil and gas industry in Inuvik and Nunavit, Canada.
It provides information on training, logistical strategies and cost analyses for hydrocarbon fires, blowouts and other emergency situations to risk managers, service companies and petroleum producers through safety meetings, corporate functions and ERP drills.
Key Safety is focusing its attention on the business of handling oilfield fires and blowouts.
“It takes years of experience to assess a situation and make the decisions necessary to launch a recovery operation. Lives are often at risk, and at the very least, a lot of money. In the case of a rig collapsed over the hole, equipment must be brought in and the wreckage cleared. If the flow has not ignited, an assessment must be made of how to proceed to ensure everyone's safety and quickly regain control over the situation. Only a company with extensive hands-on experience can pull together the skills and resources necessary to bring the emergency under control,” the company says.
Key Safety says it also provides the oil and gas industry with emergency response services for production facility fires and fire protection during high hazard operations.
“Oilfield emergencies require specialised equipment designed to do these high-risk jobs. Key Safety has designed much of its own blowout recovery equipment and specialty items that are necessary to regain control over a dangerous situation,” it says.
Specialised equipment warehoused at the Sylvan Lake head office facility for well control and blowouts include ground monitors, fire fighting appliances, emergency response tool truck, ultra-thermic cutting systems, pneumatic casing and tube cutters, hydraulic flange spreaders and nut splitters, master stream foam eductors and nozzles, emergency response sea container and Athey Wagon monitor shacks.
The company’s firefighting systems include the F-500 fire suppression product.
F-500 can be used as a pre-mix in a firewater tank or injected through an eductor or foam proportioning system.  Once in water, it does not separate and has no shelf life; it becomes part of the water.  In its condensed form, it has a shelf life of 15 years; if frozen, it can be thawed and used with no detrimental effects.
F-500 has been certified under the Canadian Environmental Protection Act (CEPA) as environmentally safe by the Ministers of Health and Environment. It is non-corrosive, non-toxic, non-hazardous and fully biodegradable.  It is certified for use by municipal, industrial and forestry fire departments for Class "A", "B" and wild land fires, hazardous spill control (including as an oil dispersant), for soil washing and remediation, and de-vaporisation of explosive gases.
The product becomes part of the water at three per cent.  It does not require aeration-type nozzles (as required by foam) so the existing turbo-jet nozzles can be utilised for great reach of stream, full straight stream, power cone or fog pattern capabilities.
Instead of just coating and smothering the hydrocarbons, the product locks up the hydrocarbon molecules and neutralises the hydrocarbons so they are no longer flammable. 
The product is compatible with either gresh water or salt water.  The amount used in comparison to foam is about 1 pail for every six pails of foam.  The necessity of switching back and forth from water to foam during foam application is removed because the product is in the water all the time, allowing for greater versatility.
This is the only fire product certified by Hale Pump, because it can be left in the pump after use with no flushing required. It can be used to clean contaminated animals from spills without harmful effects.
