Events such as Piper Alpha, BP Grangemouth, and others demonstrated failures in supervision, communication, recordkeeping, and risk assessment, underscoring the need for more effective PTW implementation.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Objective<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>This study aims to analyze the functioning of Permit-to-Work (PTW) systems in two oil and gas production units, highlighting their main characteristics, safety implications, and potential improvements.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>A case study was conducted within an intervention project in the oil and gas industry, combining quantitative and qualitative approaches.

Key limits included divergent risk perceptions, bureaucratic demands, lack of flexibility, and excessive simultaneous releases. Distinct usage patterns among developers, executors, and safety specialists revealed distortions that reinforce PTW bureaucratization.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The effectiveness of PTW in promoting safety is challenged by everyday decision-making, exposing a fragile balance between quality and quantity in operational routines.
