Laggan Tormore Project has many sites and many operations

ongoing everyday. We need to be ensure we are all aware of the

Golden Rules and follow them at all times. This presentationcovers the following:-


3/55


4/55

What is a high-risk situation?

Start-ups, commissioning and shutdowns

Any transition phases in a continuous and stable process

Any critical operation carried out infrequently

Any long and complex operation requiring particular knowledge andmanagement of several interfaces

Any temporary operation using temporary equipment

Any temporary operation with provisionally disabled, automated safetysystem(s)

Any operation involving equipment that is found to be faulty

Do you know of any more?

Downgraded situations, complex operations and operations

performed infrequently temporarily increase risk.


5/55

And in yourunit (1/2)

What are the high-risk situations you see most often on your site?

What are the main reasons for this, based on your own analysis?

What are the downgraded situations you see most often on your site?

Have you witnessed (an) accident(s) on your site resulting from a

situation where the risk was not properly assessed?

What should have been done to avoid this/these accident(s)?

What do you generally consider to be a downgraded situation?

Do you feel that your operating procedures are:

definitely useful in your daily work

useful documents for providing newcomers with good training

obsolete documents of little use


6/55

And in yourunit (2/2)

What needs to be improved?

What do you suggest?

In your opinion, which practices are good practices?


7/55

Golden Rule No. 2:

Traffic

Machinery/Vehicles/Cyclists/Pedestrians


8/558- References, date, location


9/559- References, date, location

Road traffic: cars & trucksPreparing for a journey

Make sure the journey is necessary.

Determine the most suitable means of transport.

Identify the itinerary: required distance and time.

Take the necessary precautions as regards hazardous conditions

during the journey (roads in poor condition, flooding, risk ofinterference with site operations, weather on the day, etc.).

Choose the right vehicle for the journey.

Check that the drivers license is suitable for the vehicle.

Identify places for rest stops if traveling long distances.

What about you ? In you r work o r for your ow n travel, how doyou prepare for your journ eys?


10/55

Golden Rule No. 3:

Body Mechanics and Tools


11/55


12/55

Workplace ergonomics:Seven action points

Access and traffic: give operators safe access to, and ease of movement in and around their workplaces,

while minimizing the effort this requires.

Communications: ensure efficient coordination of the tasks so that work proceeds smoothly.

Time constraints: anticipate the risk of accidents, stress and musculoskeletal disorders.

Physical and chemical effects: Reduce discomfort at the workplace to render it compatible with operators health,

whileenabling them to work without constraints.

Information: clearly present the visual and oral information needed for the work to be performed

efficiently and safely.

Handling and physical effort: limit manual handling and physical exertion to avoid accidents and prevent

musculoskeletal disorders.

Sizing and body mechanics: Design the workplaces such that personnel can work in suitable postures that are

comfortable and non-dangerous to health.

13/55

Golden rule No. 4:

Protective Equipment


14/55


15/55


Protective equipment is divided into two main categories:

Collective protective equipment (CPE)

Personal protective equipment (PPE)

Protection is provided when the risks have been analyzed and it proves

impossible to eliminate the risk at its source.

Protective equipment is put in place to protect personnel from risks that might

endanger their health or physical integrity.

Risk assessment Risk elimination

Collective protection Personal protection


16/55

Personal protective equipment

Personal protective equipment is intended for use only when all othermeasures for eliminating or reducing risks prove insufficient or

impossible to implement.

To make PPE easier to wear and accept, the characteristics of the userand his/her workplace must be factored in.

The personal protective equipment used must protect the whole body

(including the head and limbs).

PPE must be worn without fail in the context of professional activity,and only in that context

The choice of PPE is always the result of the best possible compromisebetween the highest attainable level of safety and the need to work inconditions of maximum comfort without being hampered.

In an in dus tr ia l con text , danger is o ften omnipresent du e to co-act iv i t ies,the presence of hazardous produ cts (owing to thei r composi t ion,

pressu re or temperature) and the equipment used.This is why PPE is usu ally mandatory and requi red to be worn from the

moment of entry into the u ni ts .


17/55

Golden rule No. 5:

Work permits


18/55


19/55

Work permits

What is it used for? To ensure that the operators involved are aware of the information contained in the

document, by having them sign it

To specify the validity period of the authorization

To proceed to acceptance on completion of the work andhandover.

What are the categories of documents authorizing work?

The work permitAdditional permit(s); the work permit stipulates when and why these are required

What types of add it ional permit are you aware of or h aveyou seen before on your s i te?

This list sums up why the work permit is so important in order for work

in our units to proceed safely. The work permit document is not onlynecessary and useful it is mandatory.


20/55

Work permits

In short: each permit is intended to assure:

The safety of the operators involved

The safety of personnel nearby

The safety of the installation

And to avoid...

Accidental generation of pollution


21/55

Work permits

What, in your view and on your unit(s), are the stumbling blocks tocorrect completion of the work permits?

What action would you recommend to improve the work permit process,

its efficiency and the way it is complied with?

Ask yourself these questions from the standpoint of a contractor

worker if you yourself are an operator worker, and vice versa.


22/55

Golden rule No. 6:

Lifting


23/55


24/55

Golden rule No. 7:

Work on powered systems


27/55


28/55

Why do we work on systems with power orproducts circulating in them? 1/2

Handover process unsuitable or not respected

Procedures obsolete, non-existent, incomplete or incorrect.

Wiring diagrams incompletely or un- known

Poor change management:

insufficient information

documents not kept up to date

Persons performing the work not fully trained on the system:

inadequately detailed operational knowledge of:

the mechanisms and how the equipment works

the safety devices actually in place on the equipment

Lack of organization:

nobody present on the locationand possibly the sitehas the requisite competencies.

poor management of priorities (fast completion taking priority over safe completion

/accomplishment of the task).

Below is a list of possible causes of accidents that can have

extremely serious consequences. Try and imagine one or moresituations that illustrate each of the causes mentioned.


29/55

Thermal energy

Heat:Many sources of heat are used in our activities:

steam

flames

hot products process equipment (compressor discharge, heat exchangers, reactors and so on.)

etc.

Cold:Freeze burns are every bit as dangerous as burns caused by heat. The chief

sources of cold are: liquefied gases (nitrogen, propylene, etc.)

refrigeration units

expansion of pressurized gas.

What are the different types of energy?


30/55

The preliminary risk assessment:some strong recommendations

It is vital to ensure that the hazard identification and risk evaluation cover all

eventualities.

Bear in mind that the accumulation or combination of different kinds of danger

can exacerbate the effects and increase the risk.

Do not underestimate the risks (slow rotation, steam at low pressure,

temperatures that can result in burns after several seconds of contact).

Do not overlook potential energy (risk of falling objects, elastic energy stored in

loadedsprings or gases).

Anticipate failure of supposedly reliable barriers (ineffective seal; corrosion,

erosion, etc.).

Understand the operating logic of automated systems.

Do not forget to consider the electricity stored in capacitors / batteries, and in

overhead or underground cables.

Consider the risks that may be generated by operations going on near the

equipment (see REXfrom April 2011 on the next page).


31/55

Golden rule No. 8:

Confined spaces


32/55


33/55

Because of these r isks, ser ious or fata l acc idents som etimes oc curwhen work takes place in con f ined spaces.

Confined spaces

A confined space is a hollow volume, completely or partially enclosed

(a place, structure, piece of equipment or machinery) and usually not

designed to be permanently manned. In some cases, a building can also

be considered a confined space.

However, it may be necessary to move through such spaces or work

inside them for maintenance or cleaning operations, occasionally orregularly.

The defining characteristic of a confined space is the particularly

limited natural exchange between the air inside and outside it, which

can lead to risks of suffocation, poisoning, fire and explosion.


34/55

The risks of carrying out work in confined spaces

There are three types of risk associated with working in confinedspaces:

1. Asphyxia (suffocation), anoxia, hypoxia

2. Poisoning

3. Explosion and fire

36/55

Golden rule No. 9:

Excavation works


37/55


38/55

Excavation works

The many risks we regularly face in our activities include those related

to excavation works.

Its wrong to think that only people working on construction or laying

pipelines encounter these risks. In fact, excavation often takes place on

our sites, e.g. in the following instances:

Lower levels of construction (of a building for example) Installation of equipment (such as a pit for a buried tank)

A buried or semi-buried structure:

settling pit

storm water or wastewater basin

Laying an underground pipe or electrical cable

Work on a buried pipe or cable.


39/55

Excavation works

Which operators encounter the risks directly?

Personnel who work at the bottom of excavations are potentially themost exposed:

Welders / pipefitters

Radiography operators

Electricians

Inspection technicians

Civil engineering technicians

Site supervisors

Drivers of motorized machinery

However, if a trench or excavation is not properly marked, anyone could

be involved in an accident. And lastly, in the most serious accidents,the people who are killed or injured are those who happen to be in the

immediate environment.


40/55

Golden rule No. 10:

Work at height


41/55


42/55

Risks and consequences

The two risks involved in working at height are:

The operator falling

Tools or equipment falling

The consequences closely depend on the work height and environment.

Fall of personnel

It is impossible to define from what height the consequences of a fall would be

serious.

There are too many variables to take into account, such as: The nature of the ground

The density of occupation of the area

The size and weight of the person

The type of landing

Etc.


43/55

Working at height involves many risks, but canbe performed safely by respecting the basicguidelines.


44/55

Golden rule No. 11:

Change management


45/55

Ch


46/55

Change management

In our disciplines, change management concerns changes:

To equipment

To processes

To safety systems or devices

To planned operating conditions or work methods

To the safety parameters

To procedures To the materials or substances used

In personnel (competencies, number, etc.)

In organization

Of supplier, raw materials and/or equipment

In the nature of the materials

etc.

Change is a source of danger and many accidents originate from

changes that are inadequately studied, incorrectly effected, improperly

signaled or poorly communicated.

So... wh y then do we make changes?

Ch t


47/55

Change management

All changes, regardless of their intended advantages, must conform to

the same rigorous change management process. In principle and prior

to any analysis, every change, even one assumed to be minor, must

effectively be considered a source of risk.

Once the simple risk assessment has been doneand validated by the

appropriate line managementwe can select the change management

process in accordance with the nature of the risks flagged up in the

assessment.

Always be careful not to underestimate the potential impact a change

might have on the safety of personnel or on the integrity of

installations.

Make sure the necessary mitigation measures identified by the risk

assessment are properly applied.

Ch t


48/55

Change management

Golden rule no. 11 states a number of essential points that must be

complied with before a change can be made.

51/55

Simultaneous operationsDefinition

Simultaneous Operations (SIMOPS) or co-activities are situations where

two or more jobs are being performed simultaneously in the same work

area.

Several Golden rules may apply at the same time (e.g. lifting, work at

height) when SIMOPS are performed. Workers tend to focus only on the

risks directly involved in the individual operations, without paying

enough attention to how these might interact. Yet it is precisely these

interactions that need to be taken into consideration.

Many accidents are caused by unforeseen events or failure to anticipate

risks.

When preparing works, it is vital to situate the operation in the overall

picture and not address each activity by itself. This is the only way to be

sure that all risks the workers are exposed to have been taken into

consideration.

E l f SIMOP


52/55

Example of SIMOPs

Numerous machines and vehicles using the site traffic routes.

Two people (or four, or eight) working in a laboratory.

Equipment maintenance work in a production unit.

Loading / unloading of several trucks at the same loading / unloading

bay.

Several teams from different professions operating in the same area at

the same time.

A cleaning team or a group of visitors moving through an area while a

routine activity is in progress.

A habitual task becomes a simultaneous operation when combined with

other people or tasks.

Can you think of any more examp les?
