supporting infrastructure and facilities.
Following are the major components that will detail the makeup of these facilities.
For North GCP pipeline project installation of certain flow lines, trunk lines and
transmission lines shall take place together with associated facilities such as Off-Plot Tie-In
Facilities and Remote Headers.
Above Ground Installations (AGI) comprises of
➢ Off Plot Tie in Facility (OPTF) flow line connectivity

➢ Remote Headers (RH) flow line/ trunk line connectivity (new or existing)
➢ Gas Gathering Manifolds (GGM) transmission / trunk line connectivity.
➢ New Gas Compression Plants (GCP’s) transmission/ trunk line connectivity
➢ One Liquid Separation System (LSS). Transmission/ trunk line connectivity
➢ Hawiyah Gas Plant (HGP) Transmission line connectivity
➢ Main Line Valve Stations.
➢ Modification in existing Wellheads in order to meet operational requirement.
➢ Installation of OHPL and transformers

4. OBJECTIVES, SCOPE AND ABBREVIATIONS

4.1 Objective
This Hazard Identification Plan (HIP) is drafted in accordance with the requirements
specified in Saudi Aramco CSM to give instruction and information to all employees for
taking effective safety controls and precautions to mitigate hazards. It outlines all
tasks/activities associated with the CONTRACTOR contracted work, potential hazards
of each activity and control measures to mitigate these hazards. It identifies all potential
hazards associated with the work to be performed.
The HIP will be implemented by the CONTRACTOR with periodic monitoring and
reporting by the COMPANY and appointed representatives. CONTRACTOR is
responsible for the safety management of all activities and identify specific hazards
arising out of the nature of the works to be carried out on the Project and ensure that
BI-10-02029-0003
CONTRACTOR and their SUBCONTRACOR employees are trained in Saudi Aramco

rules and competent in their craft skill.
4.2 Scope
The HIP is applicable to all construction activities undertaken as part of North Gas
Compression Plants (NGCP) Pipelines Project. The HIP shall not be considered all-
inclusive, overall hazards may be encountered, and it will be continuously updated as
the project proceeds.

5. BASIS OF HIP
The HIP is based on COMPANY Health, Safety and Environment Policy and it shall
comply with the provisions of the:
• Saudi Arabian Laws and Regulations;
• Saudi Aramco Construction Safety Manual and Health Specification and Regulations;
• Schedule” D” of the Contract and related requirements, specifications and standards;
• Saudi Aramco Construction Environmental Management Plan and Waste Management

Program;
• SAUDI ARAMCO Hazardous Waste Code, the SAUDI ARAMCO Sanitary Code (notably
SASC-S-03, Solid Waste Management).
6. RISK ASSESSMENT METHODOLOGY

Risk methodology defines for CPP NGCP the process of risk management. Rather than
practically identifying risks; it states how risks should be identified, the methods that should be
used, the people who should be involved and even the documents and templates which are
appropriate.
BI-10-02029-0003
7. HAZARD CLASSIFICATION
Once the hazards are identified, they will be classified as Class A, B, or C.
• Class “A” Hazards
A condition or practice that is likely to cause permanent disability, loss of life or

body part and/or extensive loss of structure, equipment or material.
• Class “B” Hazards
A condition or practice that is likely to cause serious injury or illness (resulting in

BI-10-02029-0003
temporary disability) or property damage that is disruptive, but less severe than
Class “A.”
• Class “C” Hazards
A condition or practice, which is likely to cause minor (non-disabling) injury,

illness, or non- disruptive property damage.
