1. PURPOSE
The purpose of this standard is to define and identify the location of confined spaces and provide safe-
operating guidelines for those confined spaces requiring permits for entry.

2. SCOPE
2.1. This standard addresses the minimum HSE (Health, Safety and Environment) requirements for confined
space entry permit.
2.2. This standard applies to:
a. BP AKR Business Units, Partnership and Contractor Companies who work at BP AKR work area.
b. Employees and other individuals (including temporary employees and contractor personnel),
company’s visitors, or any other person(s) who work and/or are present in the workplace.

3. TERMS, DEFINITIONS AND ABREVIATIONS

Terms and definitions which apply to this standard are:
3.1. Confined Space – A space that large enough for an employee to bodily enter and perform work, has
limited means of entry/exit, and is not designed for continuous employee occupancy.
3.2. Permit-Required Confined Space (P.R.C.S.) is a confined space that meets one or more of the
following criteria:
• Contains or has the potential to contain a hazardous atmosphere (exposures to combustible dusts or
flammable mixtures, oxygen deficiencies) that may expose employees to the risk of death,
incapacitation, ill health or may impair self-rescue.
• Contains a material with the potential to engulf someone who enters the space.
• Space with internal configuration that could entrap people or causing asphyxiation due to
inwardly converging walls or floor that slopes downward.
• Contains any other identified critical HSE risks (such as radiation, electricity, and moving parts of
machinery).

3.3. Entrant – A person who has been trained and is knowledgeable of the potential hazards of the Permit-
Required Confined Space and authorized to work in a Confined Space.
3.4. Permit Issuer – A Supervisor or Designated Person responsible for:
• Ensuring acceptable safe entry conditions;
• Authorizing entry and overseeing operations; and
• Terminating entry as necessary.
3.5. Attendant – A trained and knowledgeable employee(s) stationed outside the confined space to monitor
activities inside the space and is capable of initiating proper rescue as necessary.

4. STANDARDS OF PERFORMANCE
4.1. Surveys shall be undertaken for areas/facilities and/or equipment to determine if confined space entry
permit is required.
a. A Baseline Survey shall be conducted to determine if an area, space, facility or equipment is
considered a confined space by utilizing form CS-A as described on Attachment 10.1 - Confined
Space Survey Form.
(1) For Confined Spaces that do not present any hazards an entry permit is not required.
(2) For Confined Spaces considered Permit-Required, a document of Confined Space Hazard
Identification as indicated in the form CS-B shall be developed. See Attachment 10.2 – Confined
Space Hazard Identification.
b. The completed form CS-B shall be used for the following actions:
(1) Briefing the crew/individuals prior to entry.
(2) Filling in the PRCS form CS-C. See Attachment 10.3 – Confined Space Entry Permit Form.
(3) Noting precautionary measures (such as LOTO, Hot Work Permit, Pre-Ops Check,
atmosphere tests, etc.).
Note: The completed CS-B form shall be maintained for at least twelve (12) months or until the
next re-survey of confined space, unless there is a change(s) on the identified confined space
in terms of hazards and/or risks.
4.2. Administrative controls as stipulated below shall be in place to ensure the safety of employees entering
the permit-required confined spaces.
a. Confined Space Training for Employees and Supervisors, and other individuals involved.
b. Appropriate signage to warn against unauthorized entries, in pictogram or Bahasa Indonesia and
English. Signs shall be posted at all entrances to the confined space.
c. Demarcation line(s), to distinguish dangerous and non-dangerous space/area.
d. Assignment of Attendant outside of the confined space to monitor activities and to provide
appropriate assistance should an emergency state emerges. The attendants shall be equipped with
appropriate communication mean(s) in order to be able to communicate with personnel in the
confined space.
e. Provide appropriate PPE and other equipment for safe entry and require employees to use it.
