ANABEEB

Effective and fast communication systems are essential to the effective operation of Anabeeb.
Procedure ASMP.01B “Communication”, is specifically designed to facilitate fast easy

When mobilising to CUSTOMER and setting up the necessary infrastructure, communication


devices shall be considered an integral and essential part of the infrastructure. Where possible a
fax machine, with telephone incorporated shall be installed. Computer e-mail shall be provided
where possible.

When at CUSTOMER, it will be necessary to establish communication channels with


CUSTOMER and the various Departments within Anabeeb.

Internal communication (e.g. between site and main / area office) may be in any form. Important
communication shall be documented (often through the use of a memorandum). Memorandum is
a form of internal communication and should not be transmitted outside of the company.

Other company systems exist for communicating important subjects, such systems include the
Corrective action and Non-conformance systems, Suggested Improvement Notices and
Unsatisfactory Condition Reports. These are all internal systems and should not be used for
communication outside of the company unless specifically required or expected.

5 HSE Meetings

The alarm sounds and meanings will be communicated to all Anabeeb personnel, including any
Anabeeb subcontract personnel, during the safety induction phase (see training). On hearing the
alarm, personnel will report to the nearest safe assembly area and await further instructions.

8 Hazard identification

Hazardous conditions have been considered and identified by using a Hazard Identification Plan,
Control measures are proposed to reduce or eliminate the risk, and the control measures are
evaluated to determine their effectiveness. Control measures are periodically reassessed, to ensure
their continuing effectiveness. Hazard identification is carried out using the Anabeeb procedures
ASMP 14A "Risk Assessment" and ASMP 14B "HSE Assessment".
