Safety Management: Permit To Work

Safety Management: Permit To Work

Permit To Work is not just about rules & regulations, but it is more about awareness of hazard, risk, emergency & safety & real action to deal with them!

Permit To Work, which is part of Safety Management in the workplace, is required in industries with hazardous & high-risk activities (Oil & Gas, Mining, Geothermal, Petrochemical, Energy, Nuclear, Electricity, Construction, Manufacturing & others) to:

- Maintain a safe working environment

- Ensure the safety & protection of workers

- Ensure that all Safety Precautions & Measures are taken before work begins

- Ensure that only trained workers perform the work

- Ensure that each worker knows the work done & its safety requirements

- Ensure that work is carried out safely & efficiently according to plan

- Ensure the use of the right PPE

- Ensure clear communication between workers & supervisors

- Ensure that all parties are aware of Safety Procedures & implement Safety Controls

- Prevent & reduce hazards, risks, accidents, injuries & damage

- Promote a Safety Culture in hazardous workplaces

- Ensure that all work & operations are recorded & reported

- Conduct the rules

Hazards at work:

- Heat

- Fire

- Explosions

- Chemicals & toxic substances

- Gases

- Welding processes

- Confined Spaces

Well Control Operations In The Oil And Gas Industry

Safety: Well Control Operations In The Oil And Gas Industry

Well Control Operations in the Oil & Gas Industry are procedures to ensure that wells are operated efficiently & responsibly & well incidents are prevented & mitigated. The operations combine monitoring, prevention & emergency response actions to ensure Safe Well Operations.

Hazards in Well Control Operations:

- Equipment damage

- Gas, Hydrogen Sulfide (H2S) & methane

- Injury & death

- Environmental damage

- Financial loss

Some actions that can be done in this operation:

- Have the right knowledge & skills about Drilling Management & Well Control Operation

- Monitor, check, manage & control the pressure, flow rate & fluid level in the wellbore using the right equipment safely & efficiently during the drilling, production & completion phases

- Use the right equipment & PPE

- Prevent, reduce & handle oil spills & uncontrolled gas releases into the surrounding environment

- Detect kicks / problems / emergencies

- Handle emergencies by shutting down pumps, raising drill strings & others

- Use BOP (Blowout Preventers) – valves installed at the wellhead – to shut down the well

- Shut down the well using mud & cement to plug & close the well

- Ensure safety & protection to workers from accidents

- Prevent environmental damage & equipment damage & production losses

- Test & maintain equipment that is done routinely

The above actions have varying complexity & reliability & require many resources, equipment & special expertise.

Proper training is the foundation of Well Control Operations to ensure personnel have the ability to monitor, detect, respond, prevent & mitigate incidents & emergencies!

H2S And Emergency

Safety: H2S And Emergency

Hydrogen Sulfide (H2S) is:

- Toxic Gas that smells like rotten eggs & produced naturally through microbial decomposition of organic matter in swamps, ditches & volcanic areas

- By-product of the oil & gas & mining industries & wastewater treatment

- It is corrosive & flammable, making it risky & dangerous everywhere

H2S can interfere with respiratory, cardiovascular, neurological, liver & more.

H2S can cause:

- Respiratory failure

- Eye irritation

- Headache

- Nausea

- Seizures

- Fainting

- Death

In case of H2S emergency:

- Evacuate immediately & move to fresh air

- Activate the alarm system to notify everyone nearby

- Call for help: Emergency & Safety Teams

- Always wear PPE if entering the area for rescue: SCBA

- Provide first aid: Oxygen, CPR & water for eyes

- Give medical treatment

- Be aware of the risk of fire caused by H2S

- Secure the area by placing ventilation & gas detectors & prohibit people from entering the area until conditions are safe

- Do not allow those exposed to gas to return to work until they are healthy again

- Investigate the cause to prevent future incidents

Warning:

- When in a Confined Space, H2S often cannot be detected because it quickly kills the sense of smell

- Rescue can only be carried out by the personnel who have taken H2S Training & are equipped with appropriate PPE & protection

- Handling H2S emergencies requires immediate & coordinated action to protect life & property

- H2S Training on Hazards, Detection Methods & Emergency Procedures is the essential training & must be done regularly to maintain Safety
