Fatigue Evaluation Method for High Altitude Oil and Gas Exploration Workers

In order to quantify the degree of fatigue of oil and gas exploration workers in high-altitude special operation areas, based on the mature fatigue scale FASA, combined with the special low-oxygen operation environment at high altitude, and the fatigue scale for workers in the high-altitude oil and gas exploration industry was compiled. Field research was conducted by personnel of China National Petroleum Corporation (CNPC) and Oriental Geophysical Exploration Company Limited (OGE). Based on the field research conducted by the personnel of China National Petroleum Corporation (CNPC) and Oriental Geophysical Exploration Company Limited (OGECL), 102 valid samples of the pre-test scale and 512 valid samples of the formal scale were obtained. The validity of the scale was examined by Exploratory Factor Analysis (EFA), and the validity of the structure of the scale was examined by Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA). The results showed that the fatigue scale developed for high-altitude oil and gas exploration workers has good reliability and validity, and can effectively quantify the personal fatigue of high-altitude oil and gas exploration workers, and the formal scale consists of three dimensions (Physical fatigue, Mental fatigue, Situational fatigue) and 15 items.
