SCOPE This procedure applies to all works to be executed in a confined space that pose a risk to employees. A confined space is a place which is substantially enclosed (though not always entirely), and where serious injury can occur from hazardous substances or conditions within the space or nearby (e.g. lack of oxygen).

1.1

Purpose The purpose of this procedure is to:  Outline the requirements for practices and procedures to protect employees from the hazards of entry into permit-required confined space.  Establish a comprehensive system that protects employees from a wide variety of potential hazards while working in confined spaces.  Ensure compliance with relevant legislation.  Put in place adequate emergency arrangements before the work start.  Require all SUBCONTRACTORS, Lower Tier SUBCONTRACTORS, Vendors and all other professionals taking part in the Project to carry out a suitable and sufficient assessment of the risks for all work activities for the purpose of deciding what measures are necessary for safety. For work in confined spaces this means identifying the hazards present, assessing the risks and determining what precautions to take.

1.2

Project Description The Project consists in the Engineering, Procurement and Construction (EPC) for Al Dabb‟iya Phase Facilities Development: CENTRAL PROCESSING PLANT, GATHERING SYSTEM, EXPORT PIPELINE (OIL and GAS), FLARE SYSTEM, WATER SUPPLY and DISPOSAL, in Dabb‟iya area (Southwest of Abu Dhabi).

PTW SYSTEMS APPLIED

6.1

Restricted/Operational Areas (BROWNFIELD) For activities to be performed within Restricted/Operational Areas (BROWNFIELD) the ADCO PTW System shall be in force as detailed below:  Existing Clusters operational areas  Existing CPP Unit operational area  Existing pipelines and utility corridors (Off-shore and On-shore) operational areas CONTRACTOR and SUBCONTRACTORS will provide to ADCO the relevant WMS(s) and TRA(s) describing the safety protection measures to be put in place when working nearby or on any existing installations that are to remain, compliant with ADCO relevant procedures applied. CONTRACTOR and SUBCONTRACTORS will indicate to ADCO an enough number of Job Performer Supervisors, of Work Permit Coordinator(s) and Job Originator Supervisors to be trained, in order to avoid the delays due to permit processing. As per ADCO PTW procedure, a Confined Space Entry Certificate (CSEC) is required for the protection of personnel entering vessels, tanks, furnaces, sewers, pits over one meter deep and other confined spaces within the ADCO Oil Field/Terminal areas regardless of area designation. The CSEC allows ONLY to enter into a confined area but the work may need additional PTW(s) related to type of work (Cold, Hot, Excavation etc.). Protection is required against hazards such as flammable vapors, oxygen deficiency, toxic atmospheres, excessive temperatures, power driven equipment, etc. Confined Space Entry is one of the most hazardous activities undertaken within petroleum production operations. Care and attention must be paid to all aspects of the work plan and procedure. Particular emphasis must be placed on communication. Since person's lives are directly at risk, pre-job work planning meetings, procedure review meetings, TRA and TBT's are essential pre-requisites. It is recommended that prior to each Confined Space Entry work that all persons familiarize themselves with the Confined Space Entry procedures as detailed in Appendix G to the 3 part of Permit to work – Confined Space Entry Certificate.

CONFINED SPACE ENTRY PROCEDURE

7.1

General An Entry Permit must be posted at all entrances of the confined space or otherwise made available to entrants before workers enter a permit space. An Entry Permit is mandatory for any persons to enter and who intend to perform a job within an enclosed space. The Entry Permit allows ONLY to enter into a confined area but the work may need additional PTW(s) related to type of work (Cold, Hot, Excavation etc.) The Permit must verify that pre-entry preparations outlined in the standard have been completed. The duration of entry permits must not exceed the time required to complete an assignment. Confined spaces include tanks, vessels, hoppers, bins, boilers, conveyor tunnels, coal bunkers, sumps, ducts, scrubbers, manholes, pits, sewers etc. Putting one‟s head inside the manhole or the vessels entrance is also deemed as confined space entry. Because of works to be executed within H2S hazardous classified areas, the Confined Space definition includes excavations below 1.2m (or 4 feet), which are to be considered confined spaces due to the fact that H2S will settle at the bottom of these spaces (hydrogen sulfide is heavier than air). If SUBCONTRACTORS have to execute works within ADCO‟s classified H2S areas, unauthorized entry into pits or trenches shall be prohibited unless specific PTW(s) and TRA(s) have been approved by ADCO and CONTRACTOR, and all mitigation measures assumed by all involved parties. Issuing of ADCO‟s Confined Space Certificate will be required. Entry controls in such areas will be manned by ADCO in terms of accessibility, fencing, lockout/ tag-out and procedures applied. Appropriate signage shall be in place such as the following “Confined Space Danger Sign”:

Only persons who have attended the Safety Training courses and competently trained in Confined Spaces Entry as per “Project HSE Training Matrix”, and who have received a CONFINED SPACE ENTRY CERTIFICATE (CSEC) by ADCO

Area Authority or a CONFINED SPACE ENTRY PERMIT by the CONTRACTOR Entry Supervisor (OPEN AREA), can enter into a Confined Space or act as Safety Watcher/Standby person. A specific WMS and TRA must be approved for each Confined Space Entry and should address the following as a minimum:  Work scope and method.  Supervisor in charge  Watcher/Standby man  Rescue Procedures and Equipment  Training  Tools and Equipment  Explosion proof fittings (if required)  Ventilation  Access/Egress  Bonding to prevent electric shock and static discharge The following activities are considered to be hazardous when carried out in Confined Spaces:  Paint spraying  Welding  Gouging  Preheating and Burning  Grit blasting  Use of Solvents The hazards involved include Fire, explosion, asphyxiation, dust, fumes, noise, electrocution and oxygen deficiency/enrichment. The Confined Space must be positively isolated from all piping connections, either by spades or the removal of valves or spool pieces. All electrical-driven equipment connected to, or normally associated with the confined space, must be locked out for safety reasons. The use of electrical equipment inside Confined Spaces must be strongly discouraged, however, where this is not possible the maximum voltage is 24 volts AC (or 110 volts DC with center tap to earth – this will be subject to additional Permit To Work such as Hot, Energizing etc.). Only air must be used to drive pneumatic tools in confined spaces (except when the atmosphere is inert). The confined space must be prepared and placed in a safe condition for entry prior to the Permit Issuer completing the Hot Work Permit. The actual preparation of an individual confined space will vary according to its design, construction and use.

However, in all cases, adequate lighting, ventilation and safe means of access and egress must be provided. Ensure that torches are available for emergency lighting in case of generator failure. All tools, equipment, cables, tube, ventilation, lighting must enter the confined space from a separate opening. When possible man hole shall be exclusively reserved to men egress/access. Evaluations for heat stress must be carried out by the SUBCONTRACTOR Supervisor and CONTRACTOR Supervisor prior to start of work and at regular intervals, and appropriate action taken. Whenever more than one group of workers is working simultaneously inside a confined space a proper coordination will be organized by CONTRACTOR and relevant SUBCONTRACTORS, the coordination measures shall be reported in the WMS/TRA. No hot work will be allowed inside a confined space until appropriate control measures are introduced, based on the WMS/TRA. The ventilation system, preferably air driven, must be arranged such that only fresh air is drawn or blown into the confined space. In most cases Oxygen and Gas tests must be carried out by CONTRACTOR/SUBCONTRACTOR Authorized Gas Tester or ADCO Area Safety Officer prior to initial entry, and then at intervals determined by the Permit Issuer. (Note: For certain activities continuous monitoring may be required). The Safety Watcher/Standby person must be briefed by the Permit Issuer on his/her responsibilities. An agreed emergency response/rescue plan must be prepared and explained to all persons involved in the confined space entry. The complexity of the plan will be dependent upon the type of confined space; however, all persons entering must wear adequate PPE, including safety harnesses and retrieval lines. Cylinders containing oxygen, acetylene, nitrogen or other gases shall not be taken into confined or enclosed spaces. Internal combustion powered engines shall not be operated in confined spaces. Low voltage transformers must not be taken into confined spaces. When all preparation works are complete the Permit Issuer will sign the Permit to Work which must be displayed at the entrance of the confined space. Each person entering the confined space will attach his/her ID badge to the display board and sign the Entry log sheet, both of which will hang at the entrance to the confined space. Each person leaving the confined space, irrespective of for how long time, he/she must sign the log sheet and remove his/her ID badge. Safety Watcher/Standby person will strictly control entry to the confined space. When there is no one inside, and before he leaves, he/she must either shut the door or place a warning sign to prevent unauthorized entry in his/her absence.

Prior to Entry Prior to entering in a confined space, a CONFINED SPACE ENTRY CERTIFICATE (CSEC) issued by ADCO Area Authority or a CONFINED SPACE ENTRY PERMIT issued by the CONTRACTOR Entry Supervisor (OPEN AREA) must be properly completed (refer to CONTRACTOR procedure: 3844-LZ-PC-GA000107_PERMIT TO WORK PROCEDURE). “Entry permit” means the written or printed document that is provided by the responsible party (ADCO or CONTRACTOR) to allow activities and control entry into a confined space. The proper protective clothing, respiratory equipment, emergency stand-by equipment, and fire precautions shall be taken before the permitted confined space is entered. CONTRACTOR/SUBCONTRACTOR HSE personnel and SUBCONTRACTOR Inspector should check the equipment if properly inspected, tested and certified prior to be used/introduced into the Confined Space. For further details refer to procedure: 3844-LZ-PC-GA0001020_CONSTRUCTION TOOLS AND EQUIPMENT INSPECTION PROCEDURE. Authorized entrants who enter a permit space must wear a chest or full body harness with a retrieval line attached to the center of their backs near shoulder level or above their heads. Wristlets may be used if the employer can demonstrate that the use of a chest or full body harness is not feasible or creates a greater hazard. Also, the employer must ensure that the other end of the retrieval line is attached to a mechanical device or a fixed point outside the permit space. A mechanical device must be available to retrieve someone from vertical type permit spaces more than five feet (1.524 meters) deep. Specific WMS and associated TRA will define such requirements.

7.3

Permit Emission The CONTRACTOR Entry Supervisor or the ADCO Issuing Authority, for the respective areas of competency, they shall:  Enforce the PTW required measures to prevent prohibited entry.  Distinguish and classify the hazards of a required confined space Permit before employees enter.  Produce and co-ordinate the procedures and operations necessary for a safe permit confined space entry operations and rescue/emergency services may be required. The SUBCONTRACTOR Job Performers shall provide to the employees the necessary equipment indicated in the PTW, at no cost to employees, shall ensure that these equipment are fit to the job and that the employees are using the equipment properly. This includes testing and monitoring equipment, communications equipment, personal protective equipment, lighting equipment, barriers and shields. The SUBCONTRACTOR Job Performers must also make available all necessary rescue equipment DOCUMENT TITLE: Confined Space Procedure

When there is a change of the task, or conditions stated on the permit change for some reason, the Permit has ceased and a new Permit is required.

7.4

During the activity The CONFINED SPACE ENTRY CERTIFICATE (CSEC) issued by ADCO Area Authority or the CONFINED SPACE ENTRY PERMIT issued by the CONTRACTOR Entry Supervisor (OPEN AREA) shall identify the following:  Name of permit space to be entered, authorized entrant(s), eligible attendants and individuals authorized to be Entry Supervisors  Gas Test results;  Tester‟s initials or signature;  The date and the authorized duration of the entry permit (the duration of entry permits must not exceed the time required to complete an assignment, and in any case cannot exceed 12 hours).  Name and signature of supervisor who authorizes entry;  Purpose of entry and known space hazards;  Measures to be taken to isolate permit spaces and to eliminate or control space hazards;  Name and telephone numbers of rescue and emergency services and means to be used to contact them;  Acceptable entry conditions;  Communication procedures and equipment to maintain contact during entry;  Additional permits, such as for hot work, that have been issued authorizing work in the permit space;  Special equipment and procedures, including personal protective equipment and alarm systems; and  Any other information needed to ensure employee safety  The authorized personnel, by name, currently serving as Standby person. Circumstances may require more than one person posted at the entry point or at different access/entry points. The requirement for additional standby persons should be carefully considered during the planning of the job depending on the specific Task Risk Assessment contents. The permit must be posted at the point of the access/entry. The Entry Supervisor must cancel entry permits when an assignment is completed or when new conditions exist. New conditions must be noted on the cancelled permit and used in revising the permit space program. The standard requires that the SUBCONTRACTOR keep all cancelled entry permits for at least one year. When an unsafe condition arises in or near the required entry permit the CONTRACTOR Entry Supervisor or the ADCO Issuing Authority, for the respective areas of competency, they will stop the work, remove the workers, and revoke the Confined Space Entry Permit.

The CONTRACTOR HSE Manager or ADCO Safety Officer shall retain each cancelled entry permit for recording purpose and to allow the review of the confined space program (Lesson Learnt). Any problems encountered during a confined space operation shall be marked on the appropriate permit so that proper revisions of the permit can be made.

7.5

Worker Training Before the initial work assignment begins, the SUBCONTRACTOR must provide proper training, as per “Project HSE Training Matrix”, for all workers who are required to work in permit spaces. After the training, SUBCONTRACTORS must ensure that the employees have acquired the understanding, knowledge and skills necessary to safely perform their duties. Additional training is required when:  The job duties change;  A change occurs in the permit space program or the permit space operation presents any new hazard; and  An employee‟s job performance shows deficiencies. In addition to this training, rescue team members also require training in CPR and first aid. Employers must certify that this training has been provided. After completion of training, the employer must keep a record of employee training and make it available for inspection by employees and their authorized representatives. The record must include the employee‟s name, the trainer‟s signature or initials and dates of the training. Standby personnel must be trained and shall be assigned no other duty. Under no circumstances should they leave the worksite whilst man-entry in progress. This must be explicitly stated in the TBT. The SUBCONTRACTOR Site HSE Department will document and certify that the trainings required are accomplished. The certification record will include information such as employee's name, the signatures or initials of the trainers, and the dates of training.

7.6

Emergency Situations Emergency situations exist when there is immediate or imminent danger to life and health of the entrants. Emergency procedure will be activated in particular in the following occur:  Failure of monitoring equipment  An emergency occurs inside or outside the confined space The standby person must be notified immediately whenever the entrant notices any warning sign or symptom of exposure to a dangerous situation, or he detects a prohibited condition. If the entrant recognizes any warning sign or symptom of exposure to a dangerous situation, immediate evacuation of the permitted confined space is required. DOCUMENT TITLE: Confined Space Procedure
