Working in Confined Space

Working in Confined Spaces can be dangerous & poses a risk of serious injury & death. When working in a Confined Space, a few things are bound to happen are:
- Exposure to harmful substances
- Lack of oxygen
- Water buildup
- Lack of light
- Dust in high concentration
- Hot temperature
- Toxic & flammable gases, fumes & vapors
- Bad weather
- Difficulty in evacuating
- Fire

A few things to think about & manage when working in a Confined Space:
- Permit To Work
- Duration
- Work done & how to do it
- Physical condition & health
- Number of workers & Rescue Teams & their abilities – outside & inside Confined Space
- Training requirements
- Confined Space situations & conditions
- Risks & dangers

Workers & Rescue Teams working in Confined Spaces must have the ability to:
- Work in Confined Space
- Control physical hazards & atmospheric hazards
- Protect themselves, including protecting their breath
- Enter & exit Confined Space
- Take appropriate action when an emergency occurs
- Use equipment in Confined Spaces (Gas Detector, Tripod, Davit, PPE, communication device, Harness, Rope, SCBA & more)

Fact: The injured & killed while working in Confined Spaces are workers & people trying to carry out rescues without using proper equipment & never having proper training.

Therefore, companies that have Confined Spaces must have a competent team to help manage risks in Confined Spaces & ensure that all workers & Rescue Teams are adequately trained & instructed.

CPR (Cardio Pulmonary Resuscitation)

CPR (Cardio Pulmonary Resuscitation) is an effort to restore the ability to breathe & blood circulation in the body. Breathing & blood flow that stops can trigger brain damage that can result in a person dying in a matter of minutes.

When performing CPR:
- Victims must be moved to a safer place
- Contact the nearest medical personnel/hospital
- Check victim's consciousness by asking for name, checking pulse & blood flow
- Shake the victim's body slowly
- If the victim responds, try to keep the victim conscious until medical help arrives
- If the victim does not respond, perform CPR
- Lay the victim's body on a hard & flat surface
- Position yourself on your knees beside the victim's neck & shoulders
- Place one palm of your hand on the center of the victim's chest & place your other palm on top of your hand
- Straighten your elbows & place your shoulders directly over your hands
- Press the victim's chest 100–120 times per minute at a rate of 1–2 pressures per second
- Check if the victim can breathe again & shows a response
- If the victim has not responded, you can start trying to open the victim's airway to give artificial respiration
- Lift the victim's head & place your hand on the forehead
- Lift the victim's chin to open the airway
- Pinch the victim's nose, then place your mouth to the victim's mouth
- Give 2 breaths of air from your mouth while seeing if the victim's chest is raised like someone is breathing
- Repeat the chest compressions 30 times followed by giving 2 breaths

Thinking And Remembering

Research has proven that:
- Thinking is done when we face & do something
- Remembering is done when we try to think about something that is already past
- The 2 things above happen at different times
- Remembering is a complicated process because it is difficult for us to remember many things at the same time
- The process of remembering will be easier to do if we repeat what we have faced & done

Drilling Operation And Technology

The Oil & Gas Industry, especially the Drilling Industry, is one of the most complex industries. Drilling Operations carried out in this industry are not as easy as the oil & gas that we see every day. As drilling carried out in Oil & Gas Wells is a difficult & complex operation, a successful Drilling Operation requires:
- Qualified personnel & team
- Complex arrangement of machines, materials & equipment (Drilling Rigs & more) that must reach depths of more than thousands of meters
- Perfectly executed cooperation by personnel & team
- Collaboration with other Operations & Service Companies

Some things to avoid in Drilling World:
- Personal injury
- Technical problem
- Expensive cost
- Accidents & emergencies

However, all the complexities, difficulties & complexities to drill & complete Wells in the Oil & Gas / Drilling Industry can be overcome with the advancement of Technology in the Drilling World. The technology applied also assures that the Drilling Process in the well can be carried out safely & efficiently.
