3. General QHSE
Policy
QHSE is embedded in the while organization as an integral part of the day-to-day business and has the
full attention of the management and every employee.
Quality: To fulfil requirements, resulting from defined needs and expectations of the client.
Safety: The prevention of accidents, injuries to health or welfare of employees and damage to
machines or plant.
Environment: The fulfilment of local environmental rules and regulations and the commitment for
preventing pollution to the environment.
We implement our policy in compliance with the valid codes, specifications, legislations and
regulations.
PRS Management objective is focusing on a process approach and continual improvement by means
of key performance indicators in order to measure the effectiveness and efficiency of the process.
To achieve this aim PRS and operational divisions are fully committed:
• To ensure that all products and services are in accordance with the specified requirements of
the client: on time, within budget and in accordance with specifications and legal
requirements
• To provide safe and healthy working conditions for all employees and third parties and to use
safe working methods and practices
• To stop the work, or part thereof, when the health, safety or welfare of any employee or the
environment is endangered by PRS activities
• To promote the reporting of potential risks and to take the necessary preventive actions.
• To control and monitor the illness rate and to ensure the implementation of preventive
actions for healthy work conditions
• To ensure that all personnel do not use, transport or have in their possession drugs, alcohol,
natural stimulants or other similar intoxicating substances
• To check the fulfilment of local environmental rules and regulations and to aim for the
efficient use of consumables in order to decrease and limit waste and prevent pollution of the
environment
• To verify the management’s system against the objectives through implementation of both
internal and external audits, management reviews as well as to take preventive and corrective
measures
The management makes this policy available to all those concerned. The duty, responsibility and
authority for realizing and implementing the integrated management system is assigned to the
division directors and line staff. The control of objectives is monitored in the “Plan of Actions” as part
of the operational business program.
General Safety
Safety is the responsibility of every employee irrespective of status. Employees shall ensure that their
workplace is safe and functions efficiently and safely. Common sense should be applied for safe
working practices to be implemented and adhered to at all times. Particular attention is to be given to
worksite safety and to any safety procedures provided.
• Help prevent accidents and injury before they occur. Stay alert at all times. Report situations
which may cause or lead to accident or injury.
• In particular, report all unsafe conditions, tools, equipment and working practices immediately
to operational management / supervision so that they can be corrected before they can cause
accidents.
• Use the Hazard Report Form to notify management of Health, Safety or Environmental hazards
or problems that are encountered in the workplace.
• Find out and understand all relevant information involving general health and safety issues as
well as those specific to PRS project work scope without having first to be told about it.
• Alcohol and drugs (except under prescription) are prohibited. If a person is taking prescribed
drugs this information must be notified to the installation's medical person on arrival.
• Do not remove, displace, damage or destroy any safety equipment provided for use on jobs.
• Permit to work procedures shall be strictly adhered to. No work shall commence until the
appropriate permit has been obtained from a competent issuing authority.
• Watch where you walk and keep alert to the movement of equipment and other persons
around you. Use the handrail when on stairways.
• All employees shall maintain their work area in a neat, orderly, tidy and litter free condition
at all times.
All employees shall use personal protective equipment (PPE) provided for their use. Only authorized
persons shall be allowed to operate plant and power tools.
All employees shall inspect their work areas at the end of each shift and ensure that all air, water,
diesel and electrical supplies are shut off unless otherwise instructed.
No person shall stand under loads handled by power operated lifting equipment. All personnel shall
be aware of what to do in an emergency. Equipment shall not be operated unless the operator is
sufficiently trained and experienced in its use whilst unsupervised
Be careful when moving about any work area to avoid slipping, tripping, or falling. Be especially careful
when weather or other conditions create or aggravate hazardous situations. Look for slip and trip
hazards around the workplace, such as uneven floors, trailing cables, areas that are sometimes
slippery due to spillages (include outdoor areas).
Miscellaneous rubbish, e.g. plastic Keep areas clear, remove rubbish and do not allow to build
bags up.
Smoke /steam/ vapour obscuring Eliminate or control by redirecting it away from risk areas;
view improve ventilation and warn of it.
Slippery surfaces and change from Suitable footwear, warn of risks by using signs, locate
wet to dry floor surfaces doormats where these changes are likely.
Lifts from between knee and shoulder height are much easier than those outside this height range.
Moving loads from one level or floor to another is more hazardous. Remember a back injury is usually
for life.
Barriers
All PRS equipment and hoses as well as the system need to be barriered of in order to prevent
unauthorized personnel entering the area.
Red and white tape will be used at the entrance of the site. Warning signs displaying information on
the activities e.g.(“PRESSURE TESTING”) will be posted with the barrier tape at all access points.
Warning signs must also be posted with regular intervals around the test barriers.
Prior to the commencement of operations on any system, all relevant personnel must be informed of
the impending operations by either a tannoy announcement or by individual verbal messages. The
complete site will be cleared of “Unauthorized personnel”.
All PRS operational personnel are provided with full protective clothing which must be worn at all
times when working on site or when appropriate on company premises.
Client requirements on personal protective equipment will be adhered to at all times by all PRS
personnel.
In the event of an emergency during operations, all equipment shall be shut down immediately. The
power supply to the leak test equipment container or lab shall be isolated and the air supply to the
diesel unit closed off.
If a system is under pressure at the time of an emergency the injection point must be closed as soon
as pumping has stopped. Non return valves shall be fitted to injection points of systems to ensure that
pressure is contained in the event of hose failure.
Work permits are to be returned to the permit office / control room unless the permit states
otherwise. Personnel shall proceed to their allocated emergency muster point in accordance with the
clients site contingency plan.
Positioning of equipment
The equipment required to perform the work scope may not have arrived on site yet or if it has, it may
require moving to an alternative position or location. In this case the supervisor must liaise with the
client representative or other similar persons to assist in this operation.
Care must be taken to ensure that the movement of any equipment is sited in accordance with normal
PRS and clients requirements (for example - on wooden slats or on plastic sheets etc.), is prevented
from damage, is sited appropriately for operational purposes and ideally in the vicinity of the following
services - tannoy announcements, air, water, fuel supply, firefighting appliances etc.
Once the equipment has been sited an inventory check and inspection must be performed on all
equipment, consumables and ancillaries to check for obvious deficiencies and damage. Any
deficiencies or damage identified must be suitably recorded and reported to the Supervisor as soon
as possible for immediate action.
The availability, calibration, condition and operability of all safety critical items (alarms, trips, shut-
downs, pressure relief valves, bunds, site services etc. must be checked and work must not proceed if
any are deficient.
All equipment, especially any that is subject to positive or negative pressure, prior to operations must
be physically checked for any obvious signs of wear and tear or damage that may, or is likely to, lead
to its failure. The use of the damaged equipment must not continue. The item must be withdrawn
from use, identified and / or segregated and the matter immediately reported to the Job Supervisor.
The matter must also be recorded so that any appropriate and if need be, immediate action may be
initiated.
Equipment safety
Access to the top of all framed units higher than 1,8 metres above deck / ground level shall involve
the wearing and securing of safety harness. PRS personnel shall wear ear defenders at all times when
running diesel powered equipment with a sound power level in excess of 85 dB(A). The pump operator
and all other PRS personnel must obey tannoy announcements and any other instructions whether
they be verbal or by audible alarm. All equipment shall be located when on-site in a manner which
leaves suitable and safe escape routes. Equipment shall be located so as to leave 2 ft gangways
between each unit wherever possible.
All equipment that is used during operations must be certified and in date. This includes but not
limited to: gauges, chart recorders, dew-point meters, pressure release valves. If no certificate can be
found and no record is on or in the equipment that must be treated as non-certified and not used.
In the event of an emergency during operations, all equipment shall be shut down immediately. The
power supply to the equipment container or lab shall be isolated and the air supply to the diesel unit
closed off.
If a system is under pressure at the time of an emergency the injection point must be closed as soon
as pumping has stopped. Non return valves shall be fitted to injection points of systems to ensure that
pressure is contained in the event of hose failure.
Work permits are to be returned to the permit office / control room unless the permit states
otherwise. Personnel shall proceed to their allocated emergency muster point in accordance with the
clients contingency plan.
4. Communications
All PRS operational personnel must attend the clients standard induction (if not already inducted)
courses on arrival at site.
All works must be carried out in accordance with the clients Permit to Work System. A valid permit to
work need to be signed before every shift change.
Wherever practicable, PRS personnel should receive training from the client on the clients permit
system.
All PRS crew members on any job must read, understand and be aware of all Work Permits in force
and information contained therein relating to their scope of work. Any precautions, measures or
actions to be taken as specified by the Work Permit must be adhered to at all times throughout the
duration of the work.
Any new hazards or risks that arise from changes must be identified and assessed at this time. If a
permit will expire before the workscope will be completed, the Job Supervisor shall ensure that a new
permit is raised and endorsed before the expiry time / date of the old permit.
The PRS Supervisor will hold a pre job briefing for the Work crews to discuss operational procedures,
safety issues and any site-specific hazards. This will be repeated for new arrivals to site
The Service Supervisor must conduct a pre-job safety meeting for all Company personnel, customer
representatives, and all other relevant individuals on location. For offshore operations all personnel
that will be involved to some capacity on the rig floor should be included in the pre-job meeting.
The subjects covered and discussed during the briefing shall include, but should not be limited to the
following
a VolkerWessels company 10 | P a g e
Work Method Statement
Toolbox talk
When crew members attend the onsite job pre-meeting there shall be no need to conduct a
subsequent Toolbox talk. Where any crew members (including other shifts) do not attend, then a
toolbox talk shall take place for them, before work starts. The Senior Operator/Crew Supervisor/Senior
Technician/Engineer shall conduct a brief onsite meeting to discuss the particular job to be undertaken
and inform the crew of any potential hazards.
These meetings shall be repeated whenever the crew/shift changes. Any third-party personnel
involved in or affected by the work shall also be invited to the meeting. Topics covered shall include
those in the previous section. Meetings shall be recorded on the Toolbox Talk Form (Insert Ref).
Toolbox talks held shall be noted on the daily operations form. This kind of meeting is meant to give
the employee specific information about actual QHSE-aspects in a short time frame (15 minutes). This
may include:
Shift Handover
At every shift change, there shall be a time period solely dedicated for the purpose of exchanging a
written and a verbal account of the previous shift's operations. It is the responsibility of the supervisor
to ensure that there is a complete exchange of all information sufficient to allow the "oncoming" crew
to safely and competently continue with the operations. The shift handover period should include
(when appropriate) a complete "walk through" of the systems under test in order to identify strategic
areas or points
a VolkerWessels company 11 | P a g e
Work Method Statement
Following the end of all jobs and on return to base any health, safety or environmental issue (including
Job Performance Indicator Forms or Job HSE Audit Forms) arising from the job shall be discussed and
recorded. Corrective action arising shall be implemented and where appropriate or serious enough,
shall be notified to the HSE Manager.
Topics to be discussed:

5. General Preparation
Whether generic, project or client procedures are to be used, work shall not commence before the
maximum allowable system pressure have been established, agreed with the client and stated in
writing within whatever procedure / safe working practice is to apply.
Maintenance/certification/stored equipment
All working equipment shall be properly maintained and equipment requiring certification shall always
have current certification provided by a competent and recognised authority. Faulty equipment
should be brought to the attention of the supervisor/coordinator. Any equipment belonging to
ourselves or customers shall always be stored in a safe manner.
Rig-up, the area should be accessible to 40-ton truck combinations. The location of the high-pressure
pump must be in such a way that they can drive in and out easy and safe.
Ensure that the location does not stop or impede other activities of the plant/installation. Ensure
sufficient space for forklift access and egress. On larger projects allow for space to be allocated if
needed for deliveries of equipment or supplies.
Ensure that the location chosen conforms to these requirements. (If Possible)
• Stores container
• Space for equipment and delivery’s
• Ensure the location is close to all the necessary support e.g., electric, air supply, water
supply
• Installation of temporary silencer
Rig-down, upon rigging down ensure that a full site inspection has been done and that all container
and Workspaces have been cleaned and correctly stowed for transportation.
If working on an off-shore installation, ensure that the corrected paper work has been raised with the
plant for the loading of the containers on the transportation ship back to shore.
All equipment that has become unserviceable during operations should be taped red and a
maintenance sheet has been correctly filled out detailing all the information that is necessary for the
workshop to understand why the equipment is now unserviceable.

Work Method Statement
Injection manifold
Every injection point into a customer system shall be fitted with an injection manifold. All fittings shall
be rated to the same maximum working pressure as the hose. A check valve shall be fitted to all high-
pressure gas transmission hoses at the system injection point manifold on all jobs without exception.
This valve is required to prevent backflow of high-pressure gas from the system in the event of a hose
bursting. Prior to removal of the manifold care must be taken to ensure that any trapped high-pressure
gas has been vented to atmosphere.
The injection manifold shall always comprise the following, in sequence starting from the hose
coupling and ending with the crossover into the customer injection fitting:
• A "whip check" or other securing device must be used to secure the hose to the injection
manifold
• Coupling from hose to manifold
• A manifold isolation ball valve
• A check valve with the flow direction positioned correctly
• Hose bleed down or vent facility (incorporating a ball valve or needle valve)
• A pressure tapping (with ball valve)
• A main injection point isolation ball valve.
• Cross over from manifold to customer injection fitting
• A "whip check" or other securing device must be used to secure the injection manifold to the
customer system
Isolation from the customer system before and after pressurisation shall always be by use of the
main injection point valve.
Customer valves shall never be used. In the event of inadvertent closure during pump flow or before
full pump shut down all fittings will experience a transient high pressure "spike" before the hose
protection relief valve lifts and the hose protection overpressure switch trips the pump. Customer
systems must always be protected from these pressures.
Hose runs may be manifold along their length to split a single hose into a number of legs –each having
its own injection manifold.
IMPORTANT:
Care must be taken to ensure that fittings have compatible threads before mating them together. For
example, BSP and NPT threads are not to be matched together as this practice is potentially
dangerous. Jointing material should not be used with parallel threaded fittings. When pressures are
expected that are in excess of the equipment employed, appropriate and certified higher pressure
rated assemblies must be exchanged prior to use. The use of higher pressure rated equipment in lower
pressure conditions is acceptable when lower rated equipment is in limited supply.
Pressurisation of any system must be through a suitably sized customer valve or orifice. The practice
of utilising needle valves to inject through should be avoided. The limited orifice size of these types of
valves causes flow restriction and generates unacceptably high back pressures.
a VolkerWessels company 14 | P a g e
Work Method Statement
Client systems may be pressurised during hydro test, leak test, pigging or purging jobs. The system to
be pressurised shall, at all times, be protected from over pressurisation. Job test or maximum
pressure shall be set following consultation with the client and system overpressure protection
devices shall be set at 10% above this pressure (where system design pressure allows).
Client system over pressure protection may be provided by use of a single or a number of protection
devices namely:
• A mechanical pressure relief valve set as above and temporarily attached to the system
(Temporary PRV).
• The temporary PRV must be sized for maximum pump flow at the above set pressure. Some
PRS departments use stand-alone overpressure manifolds (OPM) with the Temporary PRV
mounted inside.
• In addition to the over pressure protection devices there shall be a calibrated pressure gauge
(or client's own electronic pressure monitoring device) and a pressure chart recorder attached
to the system.
As part of the pre job function tests the sender and any other lines associated with the over pressure
panel shall be isolated and pressured tested to test pressure. The pre-pressurisation checklist shall
include this valve. It shall state that this must be opened along with the injection point to the client
system prior to tests commencing. These function tests shall be recorded on the chart recorder.
Note: Where maximum possible pump discharge pressure is substantially below the rated maximum
operating pressure of the whole client system, pumps, hoses, flow iron, pipes, manifold (or any other
fitting located in the line of flow) then temporary PRV's may not be practicable and need not be used.
This note applies to centrifugal pumps only. Large flooding spreads, operating at medium to low
pressures with pigs in open vented lines for example. However, the maximum pump pressure used
shall be assessed under all foreseeable emergency conditions, including accidental shut in / dead head
conditions.
Note: Wherever a secondary system such as a pressure switch is run to back up a primary system such
as a PRV, personnel should clearly understand that such systems are fitted for added assurance and
where fitted shall always be run together with the primary system and not as an alternative to it.
All relief valves shall be positioned or piped up so that discharge of vented fluids, if the valve lifts, is
to a safe location.
• For non-hazardous fluids this means positioning relief valves so as to avoid personnel or
equipment being struck by discharged fluids or debris. Positioning, selection and support of
relief valves and associated pipework shall be designed to safely accommodate any side thrust
at the point of discharge.
• For hazardous fluids this may involve a number of possibilities (recycle to pump suction,
recycle back to tank, feed off to a designated safe location agreed with the client such as a pit
or flare).
Whatever method is used, it shall be scrupulously risk assessed for safety. Return lines run for this
purpose shall not impose flow induced pressure drops that could reduce relief valve output and
protection performance. Return lines shall be suitably pressure rated and sized for vented flow.
a VolkerWessels company 15 | P a g e
Work Method Statement
Return lines shall be checked for leak tightness during the pre-job pressure test. Block valves
shall not be run downstream of relief valves.
Temporary PRV's shall be tested, recalibrated and recertified to the agreed job set pressure before
each job. Pressure switches (where fitted) shall be tested and set by the job supervisor before each
job and at least monthly for long duration jobs. Pump PRV's shall be tested, recalibrated and
recertified annually as part of a base programmed maintenance system. Where appropriate identical,
certified, replacement relief valves shall be fitted to operational pumps to allow this.
IMPORTANT:
No part of a customer system shall be isolated from previously arranged overpressure protection
for any reason, at any time during the job.
No one shall remove or isolate any safety device installed on PRS equipment except for the purposes
of calibration, repair or maintenance. Safety devices shall be immediately replaced by equivalent
devices in such circumstances.
Whatever device is used, interference, tampering, modifying, isolating or altering the devices during
pressurisation or depressurisation of a system shall not take place without the system being first made
safe. If there is any reason to suspect that unauthorised interference has taken place the operation
shall be stopped for investigation prior to its continuation.
If at any time there is evidence to suggest that any protection or monitoring device is not performing
as it is designed to do then work shall be halted immediately, the system under pressure first made
safe and action taken to remedy the situation. Operations shall not commence without the above
protection devices in place and working properly.
During rig up, appropriate lengths of hoses or other means of conveying the pressurising fluid (treating
iron or "pipes") and associated clean connections and fittings are to be run out to the agreed injection
point. This may be a single or multipoint injection. Hoses may be for low- or high-pressure gas/liquid
duty; in every case hoses, pipes, connections and fittings must be correctly pressure rated and sized
according to the type of work scope. Check before they are used. All hoses, treating iron or temporary
pipework shall have been pre-tested prior to mobilisation and carry current test certificates. These
certificates shall be presented to the client for inspection/approval prior to use on the job.
When applicable, rubber hoses and pipes shall have visual identification as to their function (i.e. main
discharge line, to test separator 1 ..... etc.). All hoses for whatever duty shall be tagged with a label
stating their maximum working pressure. All hoses shall be tested to their MWP every 12 months, and
the tested date marked on the tag. All pipeline services hoses shall be pre-tested to job working
pressure before each mobilisation.
Where appropriate, pressure drop shall be checked by calculation. Required flow rates may demand
pump discharge pressures greater than fitting or hose ratings. Discharge of used / spent liquid or gas
into customer vent or drain systems may generate sufficient back pressure to overpressure under
specified hose. Unplanned changes to rig up may cause excess flow and pressure to occur at
unforeseen points in hose runs.
At each rubber hose connection, a safety device shall be fitted so that in the event of hoses parting
company under pressure, the hoses are prevented from "whipping" about. A device such as a "whip-
check" or another suitable device must be used. Strong rope shall also be used to tie down lengths of
a VolkerWessels company 16 | P a g e
Work Method Statement
hoses providing, however, that the tie-down point selected is secure. Rubber hoses shall be secured
together and tied down (where practical) at each connection point along their length.
Long hoses shall be tied down at intermediate points where appropriate. Rubber hoses shall be
secured at all interfaces with the process plant and at the pump discharge.
Rubber hoses and pipes shall be routed (whenever possible) out of all walkways. If unavoidable, they
shall be routed in such a position so as not to present a "tripping" or safety hazard. In addition, rubber
hoses must be routed (where possible) in such a manner as to minimise the effects of abrasion,
accidental damage and away from areas frequently used by personnel (e.g., exits to and from
accommodation areas, tea shacks, designated smoking areas).
All surplus rubber hoses and pipes shall be coiled or stacked neatly and in such a manner that they do
not present a "tripping" or safety hazard.
Both rubber hoses and pipes shall be protected against over pressure and unacceptable temperatures
either by being rated above max possible (normal, abnormal and emergency) pressures and
temperatures or if this is not practical, by the use of suitable PRV's (Line PRV) or pressure/temperature
switches. Requirements for safe venting/recycle of hazardous liquids and for PRV/switch testing
specified for System Protection shall also apply to Hose Protection.
All equipment test dates should be checked for expiring based on the existing labels and stickers. Of
all pump / air hoses / pig-launchers etc. must be checked if the inspection date is not expired and is
suitable for the maximum test pressure.
Also, this procedure includes project specific TRA. The procedure must be checked by all parties,
approved, and signed before the work is performed.
a VolkerWessels company 17 | P a g e
Work Method Statement
Before testing can take place, a pre-notification is required at an early stage. It should contain at
least the following points:
• The system number and location
• The external diameters (mm), the wall thicknesses (mm), the lengths (m) and the volume
(m³) per diameter/ wall thickness section
• The total volume
• The test medium
• Date and time start hydrostatic test
• Design pressure
• Test pressures of the hydrostatic test
• Duration of the hydrostatic test
Registration
A pressure test form is drawn up of the test, containing at least the following data:
• Client name
• Identification of the tested pipeline or system
• Information of pressure gauges and temperature gauges
• Used medium
• Date of filling
• Date and time start hydrostatic test
• Test pressures of the hydrostatic test
• Duration of the hydrostatic test
• Remarks/ Events
Safety distance
During the test, the safety of the operating personnel, the environment and the installation must be
guaranteed. Although no explosions occur when testing with liquid, the ejecting of a part or the
spraying of the test liquid in the event of a collapse can cause danger to persons. Before starting each
test, a safety distance will be calculated based on the pipeline data.
• The pipeline can be approved if pressure changes can be explained from the measured
temperature measurements, taking into account the inaccuracy in the measuring equipment
• During the test, a combination of two calibrated pressure gauges should be used to verify
that the test is performed at the correct pressure
Pneumatic pre-test
Initial pressurization of any system must always be performed in a slow and controlled manner.
Injection will be halted at 1 bar(g) and visual and audible inspection checks will be carried out.
a VolkerWessels company 18 | P a g e
Work Method Statement
To prevent air pockets in the system, the system is filled slowly via the temporary inlet and fully
vented. When the system is fully filled with water, circulation of the main systems are started, and
one by one the subsystems are put into the circulation loop.
Hydrostatic test
A minimum of 1 hour for test pressure will be recommended. During the pressure test, if necessary,
welds are soaped in order to identify leakages/ or bad welds and or connections. The strength test
should be clearly visible written down on the gauge. This should have the correct measuring range so
that the test pressure can be read clearly.
The first pressurization step is at 1 bar(g), the stabilization time will be 5 min for each step. After the
first step, the next step will be 50% of the test pressure and then steps of 10%.
Initial pressurization of any system must always be performed in a slow and controlled manner,
stopping initially at 1 bar(g) and then at pressures equal to 50% of the final test pressure, in order
to allow the system to stabilize for a 5-minute period and to check all joints and flanges for visible or
audible leakage.
This will be repeated at 50%, steps of 10% till 100% test pressure. Injection will be halted at these
points and visual and audible inspection checks will be carried out. Pressure drop time assessments
will be carried out in order to satisfy the PRS supervisor and client responsible. Once system integrity
is established then pressurization will recommence up to 100% final test pressure with all checks
carried out as previously stated.

Measuring equipment
During the strength test the following precision measuring equipment is used:
Instruments used for measurement of pressure and temperature shall be certified for accuracy and
sensitivity. The certification date shall be within 12 months preceding the test. All instrument relevant
test/ calibration certificates will be supplied for review and approval prior the testing activities.
If the system is equipped with many valves, it is wise to use more pressure gauges to ensure that the
entire system is fully pressurized.
Dewatering
After the hydrostatic testing has been completed, the water must be removed from the pipeline/
system. The system must be drained at all possible drain points/ vents fitted on the line. During
dewatering it is important that an air vent is opened so that no vacuum is created in the system. This
drains the system and completes the test.

7. Reporting
After successfully performing the hydrostatic test. The completed system pack will be passed to the
client for comment. The completed system pack shall include the following information:
All pump-/air Hoses must be disconnected from the system and stored in the tool container. All spool-
pieces-, blind flanges etc. should be removed and the original valves should be mounted again.
A full site check for PRS equipment should be carried out on projects or large jobs prior to leaving site
All equipment that has become unserviceable during operations should be taped red so that
mechanics back at PRS yard can easily identify that equipment for repair.

Overview of works
To enable cleaning, circulation and pressure testing of the system Vecom will build a
tem porary piping system with pum p and circulationtank (see P&ID file)
The following steps will be m ade to clean the system
1 Erection tem porary system , 2 Air test and filling with water, 3 hydrotest (by PRS), 4 Leaktest
tem porary system 5 chem ical cleaning, 6 draining, 7 flushing, 8 drying with air, 9 dism antling
tem porary system
2.1 Equipment
Description of project: The passivation and drying of purified water system
Volume of system: ± 100 Liter (Purified water piping incl. temporary cleaning circuit)
Type of material: Stainless steel
Klimaoprema will ensure the system is prepared as per Vecom engineering before the start of the
filling of the systems.
Klimaoprema will ensure the availability of sufficient water.
W aste water treatment or disposal of waste water has been arranged and approved
2
For this the complete system (including temporary system) will be slowly pressurised with air to
1Bar(g) and inspected before filling with water may commence.
If test is successful, the system can be filled with water to perform the hydrotest of the system
To prevent air pockets in the system, the system is able to switch flow direction and by switching flow
direction air can be removed. W hen the system is fully filled with demin water, circulation of the main
systems are started, and one by one the subsystems are put into the circulation loop.
HYDROTEST: After filling of the system with water a hydrotest will be held by PRS on the
existing system (see separate Hydrotest package for further inform ation).
During this time, the system is walked down to see if any leaks are noticed, and this is validated by a
visual inspection around the system and tracking of the pressure given on the manometer. A decrease
in the pressure signifies that there is a leak. Should there be any leaks, these will be taken care of before
the chemical cleaning commences.
During the passivation the iron and acid concentrations are determined.
The passivation is ended when the iron and acid concentrations are stable.
Parameters:
Temperature : Ambient temperature
Vecinox Passivating Liquid : 100 % (approx.. 18 –22 % nitric acid)
During the passivation, analyses will be performed (acid and iron concentrations are measured).
Test freg. : Every 30 minutes
After passivation the solution is drained to temporary waste water storage.
3
Parameters for flushing:
Temperature : Ambient
pH value : < 1 pH units difference (influent and effluent water)
Conductivity : < 5 µS/cm in/out (influent and effluent water)
After draining of the system the final drying step will follow
This will be executed by means of compressed air (dry and oil free) according DPS procedure –LEI-
310-B-SP-103 / BP104-2
All steps described in the previous chapters are set here in blocks.
Analytical measurements and times of completion are written down.

Safety
5.1 Personal safety
In order to work safely on site, all personnel must wear the required PBMs. These PBMs are given by
Vecom to Vecom personnel, however, everyone involved in the chemical cleaning must adhere to
wearing these PBMs as well.
Vecom personnel wear the following PBMs during the work activities:
- Safety shoes
- Helmet (white)
- Safety goggles (with side protection)
- Overall
- W orking gloves (during the build-up and breakdown of system)
During the chemical cleaning, the following additional PBMs are used according to degree of necessity
(dependent on chemical procedure):
- Rubber, chemically resistant gloves
- Chemically resistant suit
- Face protection screen
All PBMs are kept and used according to the regulations of the supplier.
W orking in shorts (pants or shirt) is prohibited.
5.2 Tools
All the electrical tool and apparatus must be tested according to the NEN3140 standards.

Start work m eeting
The purpose of the “start work meeting” is to ensure that all the personnel involved with the chemi cal
cleaning is well informed about the chemical procedure. Additionally, the safety, health and
environmental risks are discussed.
The “start work meeting” is given by a Vecom supervisor/operator that knows all the details of the project
and the chemical procedures.
It is imperative for the Vecom personnel to know the relevant procedure before commencing with the
chemical cleaning.
The following documents will be discussed during the “start work discussion” :
- Task Risk Analysis (TRA)
- Chemical cleaning procedure
After the meeting, a presence list is filled in and signed by all the present members.

Vecom’s activities on the Klimaoprema/Sisk/BMS site relate to the chemical cleaning of the various
pipework systems.
Large volumes of chemical, water and contaminated rinse water shall be used, generated and stored
onsite during these works.
The pipework shall be disinfected and/or chemically cleaned by creating temporary circulation loops and
pumping the various chemical products into and around the respective system(s).
The chemicals, water and waste shall be stored in a defined and barriered location controlled by Vecom,
strictly off-limits to non-authorized personnel and vehicles.
This document describes the actions to be taken in the event of an accidental spillage of chemical or
other hazardous liquids used in the chemical cleaning activities on the Klimaoprema/Sisk/BMS site.

4. Precautions
In order to minimize the possibilities of accidental spillage of chemical or other hazardous liquids,
the following precautionary measures will be implemented on site as far as possible:
a) The storage area of chemicals and chemical waste shall be located within a bunded, secure
location –away from general pedestrian and vehicular traffic –and off-limits to non-authorized
personnel.
b) Use suitable containers which are resistant to the stored chemicals or the chemical waste.
c) Label the storage containers and the chemical tanks in accordance with CLP regulations and
GHS
d) Bunds of a sufficient volume (>110% of largest container) shall be used to store chemicals
onsite.
e) Provide tightly closed lids as to avoid leakage of chemicals and chemical waste during transit
–or if accidently knocked over
f) Inspect the storage area regularly to detect if any leakage has occurred or if any of the
containers become defective on a regular basis
g) Provide adequate space for safe and easy handling and inspection of the containers
h) Maintain an up-to-date log of all chemicals and chemical waste stored at the site
i) Separate incompatible materials from one another
j) Suitable and sufficient signage shall be displayed around the storage area
k) Keep the ingress to the chemical storage area secure and restrict access. Vecom supervisors
and nominated Klimaoprema/Sisk/BMS site representative(s) as necessary
l) Ensure suitable and sufficient spill materials are readily available in the storage / work area(s)
and that staff are trained to use them effectively
In order to minimise the chance of accidental spillage occurring during the transportation of chemicals
around site, some precautionary measures will be implemented:

Emergency Response Plan
Rev: 0
f) Use suitable carrying equipment to transfer the chemical and waste containers from one
location to another
a. Forklift truck and other vehicle drivers should be accompanied by a banksman. An
appropriately sized spill-kit should be readily available along the route in order to
contain any accidental spillages. The forklift driver and banksman should be familiar
with the chemicals being transported and be competent to use any spill materials. The
banksman shall be wearing PPE suitable for handling the chemicals being transported
as per MSDS
b. Transfer of hazardous liquids from/to bulk storage tanks to/from road tanker shall be
controlled by competent tanker operator. Suitable spill materials and PPE shall be
worn by all personnel involved.
g) Chemical deliveries and waste collections to/from site shall only be carried out by competent,
licensed and responsible companies/persons.
h) Vecom Project manager or delegate to contact security before the delivery of chemicals to site

The general response to the spill shall be carried out to minimize the amount of hazardous chemicals to the surrounding environment. The location of the spill
is also a consideration. The general responses include the following and they are illustrated in the flowchart below:

A sufficient quantity of spill-kit material shall be made available in order to carry out effective mitigation
measures as and when required. A 1,100 litre spill-kit shall be positioned adjacent to the IBC storage
area. The proposed quantities are sufficient for containing 110% of the largest portable chemical storage
container – and thus are vulnerable to causing environmental damage during transportation. All other
containers are considered “fixed” and will not be moved during the project. These container s are fully
bunded / contained. Spill kit materials shall be replaced immediately after use.
Smaller (50lt) spill-kits shall be positioned strategically around the temporary circulation loop to be
readily available in the instance of any leaks/drips, etc. during the chemical cleaning activities.
Spill-kit material and a drip-tray will be in position whenever a temporary connection is broken.
Two disposable chemical resistant suits (Microchem 3000 –resistant to all chemicals specified on this
project), box of disposable vinyl gloves, two pairs of nitrile gloves, two pairs of safety goggles and two
pairs of chemical resistant wellington boots shall be placed inside each 1,100 litre spill-kit.
All temporary connections shall be flanged and left intact wherever possible. W here this is not possible
(completion of a temporary system, defective seal resulting in a leak, etc.), the breaking of connections
must follow this process:

IBC’s of concentrate chemical (40% hydrofluoric acid, 30 -35% hydrogen peroxide, 25% Ammonia, etc.)
shall be kept on dedicated IBC bunds at all times. These chemicals are primarily used for dosing/spiking
the circulating solution and as such, transportation of these products should be kept to a minimum.
Transfer of chemicals from these containers shall ALW AYS be done using a dip-pipe and pump (<2 bar
pressure). Under no circumstances shall they be decanted from the drain valve. The drain valve shall
be locked closed and a blind/cap fitted to the outlet.
Transfer of concentrate chemicals shall be tightly controlled and supervised. A stand-by man, dressed
in full, appropriate PPE shall overlook the operation from a safe distance (typically 5 metres) and be
ready to administer assistance as and when necessary. This includes first-aid as well as spill response.
Spill materials shall be close at hand and ready for deployment.

f) Assess the location of the incident and determine how much chemical has been lost and
any possible routes that the spillage could have escaped containment (through floor/wall
penetrations, down adjoining pipework or steelwork, into any electrical equipment, etc.)
There are three possible scenarios that could result in leak from an IBC.
1. Defective drain connection:
This is the most common issue with IBC’s and results from an ineffective seal on the butterfly
valve. This type of leak is usually nothing more than a drip and is easily contained using a
suitable screw-cap on the outlet pipe. If this is ineffective, the recessed area around the drain
connection should be packed full of spill-kit material and the IBC taken directly to the nearest
available IBC bund.

Vecom Supervisors shall be responsible for regularly checking, amongst other things, their spill-kit
materials and chemical storage facilities. This will be documented on a daily work-place inspection
sheet.
W orkplace Inspection Sheets and toolbox talks shall be submitted to the Vecom Project Manager and
Klimaoprema site safety department on a regular basis.

Pre commissioning passivation of pipework
W aste water treatment and storage
Project : BMS Leiden
Introduction:
During a system passivation, different types of waste water will be released during the
different stages of the Passivation.
To be able to collect this waste water, one (1) 1m3 waste water tank (IBC) will be placed
close to the system to be passivated.
During the passivation of the system, 3 different types of waste water will be released into
the waste water tank.
This flushing water (which does not contain any chemicals) will be released during the pre-
flush of the system and contains mainly loose dirt like sand and possible iron oxides.
This water will be released into the waste water IBC and will be drained into the sewage
system
After the passivation phase of the cleaning is finished, the passivation waste water will be
drained into the waste water IBC as much as possible.
After the passivation phase waste water has been drained, the system will be flushed to
remove any remaining passivation fluid untill the water is within set limits.
Approx. 2-3 volumes of water will be needed to perform this flush. This second phase flush
water will be added to the passivation waste water which is already in the waste water tanks.
