18.1 Statement of standard

This standard defines specific rules and procedures that must be followed at all
locations involving Well Services and OneStim operations.
18.2 Objective
This standard is meant to prevent injuries, service quality and HSE incidents,
environmental incidents, and equipment losses when handling hazardous
materials.
18.3 Scope
This standard identifies the procedures for chemical product management,
chemical hazard communication (HAZCOM), material handling, including
purchase and inventory, and the use or sale of approved Well Services chemical
products at all Well Services and OneStim locations.
The words “material”, ”product”, “chemical”, and “materials handling” refer to

chemicals, fuels, and crude oil used for mixture preparation, including N2/CO2,
cement, other dry bulk materials, and corrosive chemicals, such as acid. These
materials can be supplied by either Schlumberger, clients, or third-party vendors.
This standard also includes requirements for handling and transporting

combustible and flammable fluids in the base or at the wellsite. This standard
includes mixing of combustible and flammable fluids in the yard or in the base,
but not at the wellsite. Refer to Well Services and OneStim QHSE Standard 30:
Pumping Combustible and Flammable Fluids, InTouch ID# 3313709, for mixing
and pumping combustible and flammable fluids at the wellsite.
This standard does not define complete HAZCOM training because of the wide
variety of special requirements in different countries and government agencies.
In some locations, Well Services and OneStim must develop additional training
programs to comply with local regulations.
Private
Compliance with this standard is the minimum requirement from Schlumberger.

Other rules and regulations from the client or from government agencies must
also be followed so long as they meet, or exceed, Schlumberger minimum
requirements.

18.6 Chemical hazards and exposure information

A chemical is considered to be hazardous if it is a physical, chemical, health, or
environmental hazard.
Physical and chemical hazards include:
• Explosive materials
• Cryogenic liquids (as described in Well Services and OneStim QHSE
Standard 9: Pumping Carbon Dioxide, InTouch ID# 3313683 and Well
Services and OneStim QHSE Standard 11: Pumping Nitrogen, InTouch ID#
3313684)
Private
• Flammable liquids (as described in Well Services and OneStim QHSE

Standard 30: Pumping Combustible and Flammable Fluids, InTouch
ID#3313709)
• Flammable solids
• Oxidizers (as described in Well Services and OneStim QHSE Standard 17:
Storage and Handling of Oxidizers, InTouch ID# 3313693)
• Pyrophoric or spontaneously ignitable in air
• Water-reactive chemicals
• Corrosive materials such as acid
• Dust explosion
Hazardous chemicals that pose health threats include:
• Known or suspected carcinogens

• Toxic materials
• Reproductive toxins
• Eye or skin irritants
• Corrosive materials
• Sensitizers
• Chemicals that can damage the liver, kidneys, lungs, nose, skin, eyes, the
blood system, or the other targeted organs.
Health conditions can be either acute or chronic.
• Acute conditions develop quickly and are caused by a single exposure to a

hazardous chemical. Symptoms can occur immediately but, in some cases,
may not be apparent for several days. Examples of acute conditions are eye
irritations caused by exposure to acids, or dizziness caused by exposure
to solvent fumes.
• Chronic conditions develop without warning signs that anything is wrong
until the medical condition has become a significant health threat. Chronic
conditions are caused by continuous or repeated low-level exposure to
hazardous chemicals over an extended period of time. Common medical
problems can include damage to body organs and, possibly, cancer.
Chemicals can enter the body in several ways:
• Eyes
Private
Eyes can be damaged by most chemicals. Chemicals can enter your eyes
from splashed liquid, dust, or fumes, or by wiping your face. As a minimum,
the eye protection specified in the Safety Data Sheet (SDS) must be worn
when handling any chemical.
• Through the mouth
When handling chemicals, always wash your hands before smoking or
eating. Do not eat or drink anything in the vicinity of chemicals.
• Inhalation
This is a very dangerous form of exposure. Vapors or dust can easily enter
the lungs.
• Through the skin
Chemicals can enter body tissue by means of absorption.
18.7 Chemical Hazard Analysis and Risk Control

Because of the potential exposure of personnel to hazardous substances, all
chemical handling shall have a specific Chemical Hazard Analysis and Risk
Control (C-HARC) detailing the risks and control measures for each exposure
situation. The C-HARC may be incorporated into the job HARC but must be
identifiable as specific steps in the process. Personal Protective Equipment
(PPE) must be determined based on the following criteria, and the actual
requirement list must be included on the job HARC.
• For activity such as loading and unloading sealed drums, totes, etc. where
there is no requirement to open the chemical container, normal PPE as
required by the location is mandatory, and use of additional PPE is not
required unless identified during the assessment. An example is for moving
drums from truck to warehouse, etc.
• For any activity which requires a container to be opened, a connection made,
contents transferred from one container to another, or transferring a fluid from
one tank into another tank containing the exact same fluid, use of PPE as
required by the SDS is mandatory. This includes all items as detailed in the
SDS. Examples of these activities include opening a drum to take a sample
or hooking a hose onto a tote tank.
• For any activity which requires one substance to be added to another
substance, including to water, perform a C-HARC of the resulting chemical
formulation. This formulation shall determine the final PPE requirement
for that operation. The SDS covering the raw materials does not take into
Private
account any mixing, therefore additional hazards can arise for which the
PPE for the raw materials is not sufficient or appropriate. The assessment
must include the following information:
– The hazardous properties of the substances being mixed
– The chemical reaction as each substance is added to the mixture
– The hazardous nature at each addition, such as vapors, temperature,
dust, etc.
– How the substance may be hazardous to the workers
– What the expected exposure level might be and how this relates to the
relevant exposure limits
– What PPE is required during the mixing and pumping sequence for all
employees.
• Where PPE is determined as necessary then the times for wearing it shall be
listed. For example, if and when PPE is required for the mixing of substances
then it shall also be required for those working with the fluids during transfer
and pumping operations, and for personnel in the vicinity where a spill or
leak could reasonably be expected
• All assessments must document the minimum PPE requirements for cleanup
in the event of a spill.
18.8 Approved Well Services and OneStim

chemical products
Well Services and OneStim may only purchase, inventory, use, or sell approved
Well Services and OneStim coded products.
The following requirements apply to all Well Services and OneStim chemical
products:
• Chemical products are assigned Well Services chemical product codes,

and are considered “Approved Well Services Chemical Products” after
successful completion of stages and gates found within the Concurrent
Lifecycle Management (CLM) or Well Services B-coding procedure, InTouch
ID# 4130254, or Third Party Chemical Products Coding Procedure, InTouch
ID# 4570229.
• No employee shall name/code a non-approved product in such a manner that
it creates the appearance of a chemical product approved as a coded Well
Services chemical product.
Private
• The use, or assumption of responsibility by Well Services or OneStim, of any

non-Well Services-coded products or chemicals pursuant to a client request
may occur only under an exemption as described in the Chemicals provided
by a client or third party section of this Standard.
• Well Services chemical product codes shall be assigned only by the Quality
Assurance function.
• All employees shall protect confidential chemical information by adhering
to the guidelines in Table 18-1: Confidentiality Code Handling for Field
Operations and Table 18-2: Purchasing Level Code for Field Operations.
18.8.1 Product Confidentiality Codes and Purchasing

Level Codes
Schlumberger assigns Confidentiality Codes (CC) and Purchasing Level Codes
(PLC) to all chemical products based on the level of restriction required to
maintain and protect Schlumberger technology.
CC codes are determined by the level of Confidential Business Information

associated with the product. The codes restrict the type of information which can
be shared both within and outside of Schlumberger. These restrictions, which
may be placed on the product for legal or business reasons, include the release
of chemical composition, supplier information, and test items. The CC level
determines how the product is handled in regards to sales, labeling and samples.
PLC codes are determined by the degree of restriction required for purchasing
chemicals. They indicate the level of control for the sourcing of the product.
CC and PLC levels can be found in the Chemicals Quality Management System
(C-QMS), https://cqms.slb.com. All employees shall protect confidential chemical
information by adhering to the guidelines in Table 18-1 and Table 18-2. Below is
the summary of CC and PLC handling chart for Field Operation.

18.8.4 Chemical shelf life

A product shelf life is the reasonable time the product would be expected to
perform as intended and is determined by several factors which include the
actual application of use, storage conditions and temperature cycles. Shelf life
is based on the product’s chemistry and how that chemistry is expected to
respond to a variation of conditions such as would be expected in Well Services
and OneStim operations. The shelf life of products is listed on the C-QMS,
https://cqms.slb.com.. Chemicals should be used within their specified shelf life.
The Chemicals Procurement and Sourcing Function shall ensure that products
sold to Schlumberger or its agents are at 75% or more of remaining shelf life as
per the Product Purchased Specification in place at the moment of sale.
In certain circumstances a product may meet the product specification and

perform as intended even after the documented shelf life has been exceeded.
Use of a product that has exceeded its shelf life may be considered in certain
conditions but only when the following process has been applied and completed.
The request to use any product which has exceeded its documented shelf life
must be validated via the respective sub-product line InTouch technical helpdesk.
This expert advice must be requested by submitting an InTouch ticket as per
Well Services and OneStim QHSE Standard 18 Guideline 01 Product Shelf
Life Extension, InTouch ID# 3313694.
InTouch shall not initiate any action until the information required on the guideline
is supplied by the location.
If an exemption is required, line management approval shall then be documented

as per Well Services and OneStim Appendix to SLB Standard 10: Management
of Change (MOC) and Exemptions, InTouch ID# 3999148. No product may be
used until the defined level of line management approval is received in QUEST.
Private
18.8.5 Product obsolescence

Chemical products can be obsoleted upon decision by the sub-Product Line
Domain Head because of technology, supplier withdrawal, cost of ownership,

annually via InTouch. When this obsolescence announcement is released, the
remaining inventory of obsolete product shall not be used and shall be properly
disposed of. An exemption to allow the use of this obsolete product must be
approved by the sub-Product Line Domain Head.
18.9 Product repackaging

If product is repackaged due to a container having been opened (e.g. a damaged
container or due to a partial container being returned from the wellsite), there is
risk that the product may have become contaminated. Additional QC tests of
the repackaged product shall be conducted prior to dispatch of the products to
the next job.
If product is repackaged, in addition to proper label replacement as defined in

the “Labels” section of this Standard, the following information shall be included
on the container:
• original lot number
• repackaging date
• repackaging location
• the name of the person who repackaged the product
18.10 Labels
All materials that can cause a physical, health, or environmental hazard, as
described in section 18.6: Chemical hazards and exposure information, must
comply with this Well Services and OneStim standard for labels. Products that
must have labels include:
• chemicals supplied by Well Services or OneStim

• chemicals placed in new or replacement containers
• chemicals in the work area including samples and laboratory reagents
• raw materials
• common chemicals, such as solvents, fuels, and coolants
Private
• consumer retail products in their original container with the original consumer
label are excluded.
The Well Services and OneStim minimum requirements for labels stipulates that
each materials package or container must be clearly marked with:
• The product name as it appears on the SDS. For Schlumberger coded

products, this must include the product code.
• Hazard warnings.
• The name and address of the manufacturer, or the name and address of the
company packaging or distributing the product. Products with SLB labels
must include SLB contact information and products with supplier labels must
include supplier or distributor contact information.

• Product samples in laboratories must have labels that, at a minimum, show
the chemical name and/or code and appropriate hazard warnings.
Missing or worn labels must be replaced immediately with a new label that meets
Well Services and OneStim requirements. Labels on purchased products must
never be removed or defaced.
Labels can be downloaded from the Global Regulatory Compliance – Chemical

18.11 Safety data sheet (SDS)

This standard refers to these sheets as “SDS.” In the USA, they were previously
referred to as MSDS, but now are called SDS at all locations worldwide.
An SDS for any material is the reference document for all information about its
hazards, safety, and handling. All personnel handling hazardous materials must
know where to find the SDS and how to use these sheets. More information
about SDSs can be found in the Glossary of Common SDS Terms, InTouch
ID# 3313694.
An SDS must be available for each hazardous material in the work place. This
requirement includes all hazardous items, whether these are Well Services
chemicals, purchased products, or purchased maintenance materials. Consumer
products in their original container with their original label are not included.
The identity of the material on the container label must match the SDS so the
correct SDS can be found using the material name or code. For local products,
the vendor's SDS must be kept in an SDS file or book arranged by product name
or code. The location Geomarket OPRM Manager is responsible for making sure
that all third-party materials or products have a current SDS on file.
Private
A current SDS must be available to any person in the workplace who handles
materials or who has exposure to these materials. All SDSs must be stored in
the work areas so they are easy to find.
The only source for the current SDS for Well Services chemicals is the Global

chemicals, or the vapor, dust, or mist from chemicals, you MUST wear the PPE
indicated on the label/SDS.
Before handling a chemical, read the label completely and take the necessary
precautions to protect yourself from injury or illness. For answers to most
questions, refer to the SDS or see your supervisor.
Always use or wear all required PPE when opening any chemical container.
Slowly loosen the plug or container cap to release pressure, and keep your face
as far away as possible from the cap or plug.
Ensure the product in the container is in a homogeneous state and that a

representative sample is taken. Ensure the sample container is correctly labeled
with at least the sampling date, location and lot number.
Do not use clamp-on, quarter turn, or similar connections, e.g. Camlock

connections, on any hoses or connections, except as described in the Dry bulk
equipment section of Well Services QHSE Standard 4: Equipment, InTouch
Documentation ID# 3313678.
Never put your head inside a storage tank unless you are wearing an SCBA or
other breathing apparatus. If it is necessary to look inside a tank, do not keep
your face over the opening longer than necessary.
For tank entry, follow the procedures in Well Services QHSE Standard 12:
Permit to Work, InTouch ID# 3313688.
Never use a fire or an open flame to heat chemicals, and make sure there is
adequate ventilation. Use only electrical strip heaters, forced air heaters, or
steam heaters. Loosen plugs and container caps to prevent a pressure increase
inside the container.
Never allow acids to come in contact with galvanized (zinc coated) materials.
Galvanized drum plugs and pipes are not permitted when working with acids
because an explosion can occur when acid and zinc come in contact.
Private
When using corrosive chemicals or flammable liquids on the job, follow the
minimum safe procedures, which includes flushing all lines with water before
disconnecting the equipment at the end of the job.
Procedures must be defined on any job where two reactive mixtures follow each
other in the delivery or pumping system. This situation can occur through dry
additive feeder kits or in the connection between the precision continuous mixer
(PCM) and the blender. Job procedures must define the process of flushing
through the system to separate these reactive mixtures.

protection” section of Well Services and OneStim Standard 13: PPE, InTouch
ID# 6291367.
Never look in the end of a line or hose on any bulk system without ensuring that
there is no pressure in the line. When connecting a bulk system on a job site,
keep the delivery lines or hoses as short as possible to decrease the amount of
dust generated, and prevent the formation of blockages.
Mark all tanks with their contents and mark all lines to show their function, such
as vent, fill, etc.
Never allow anyone on or directly under bulk tanks when the tanks are under
pressure.
Never permit any vessel, tank, pipe, connection, union, or hatch to be connected,
disconnected, tightened, or worked on while the equipment is under pressure.
When operating a bulk system, monitor the pressure gauge on each tank, but do
not rely solely on the air-compressor unloader system to maintain the correct
pressure.
No welding, smoking, or other ignition sources shall be permitted within 30 ft (10

m) of areas where dust generation from combustible dry materials is occurring.
18.19 Liquid bulk systems

Use only approved liquid bulk equipment as defined in Well Services and
