Permit To Work Procedure - Construction Phase Pearl GTL Project Revision: 4 Ras Laffan, Qatar Page 5 of 59
5887-ON-PR-HM-013
1.0 PURPOSE
The objective of this procedure is to describe for the ICs, EPCs, PMC and Early Works Contractors how hazardous construction activities are controlled in the workplace, and to identify the actions and responsibilities that are necessary to operate the Pearl GTL Permit to Work (PTW) system for the construction phase.
This procedure has been prepared by PMC, henceforth referred to herein as COMPANY acting for and on behalf of Qatar Shell GTL.
The IC, EPCM, Early Works Contractors and their Sub contractors shall henceforth be referred to herein as CONTRACTOR.
A further amendment to this procedure is planned to include an enhanced permit to work system to hazardous pre-commissioning and commissioning activities, start-up and early operations. A PTW procedure for construction work close to equipment undergoing commissioning will also be prepared.
A PTW will be applied during construction. Activities within RLC in an unfenced area are subjected to the RLC PTW system. Activities on site that can have an affect outside of a fenced off area are also subject to the RLC PTW system.
The construction PTW system will be used up until the commencement of commissioning activities at which time a further set of pre-commissioning, commissioning, start-up and operations PTW systems will be introduced.
This procedure does not address hazardous activities after the construction phase i.e. pre-commissioning, commissioning, start-up and production operations.
This procedure identifies the standards and sets the ground rules required to ensure, as far as is possible, that the PTW system is applied in a similar way.
2.0 SCOPE
This document describes the procedure for the onshore ICs, EPCs, PMC and Early Works Contractors will use whilst implementing the PTW system where required during construction activities.
It also describes the principles and essential features of the Pearl GTL PTW system. Providing details of the way in which planning, control and administration of work that is under permit control is achieved by Pearl GTL.
CONTRACTOR, ICs, EPCM's and Early Works Contractors, shall be governed by this PTW system.
The procedure includes descriptions of the following essential elements of the Pearl GTL PTW system:
• The methodology used to identify hazardous work, especially non-routine activities, that will be controlled by the Pearl GTL PTW system.
• The activities and types of work that will be controlled through the PTW system.
• A description of the permits that will be issued for various types of work.
Permit To Work Procedure - Construction Phase Pearl GTL Project Revision: 4 Ras Laffan, Qatar Page 6 of 59
5887-ON-PR-HM-013
• The method for deciding which hazardous work requires additional control measures, such as confined space or excavation permits.
• The method used to ensure that a Health Risk Assessment (HRA) has been carried out and the results incorporated in the control measures for work under permit control as per the JSA.
• The persons who are authorised to issue permits and to specify the necessary controls on supporting certificates.
• The method used to assure the competence of permit signatories and others playing an active role in the Pearl GTL PTW system.
• Actions necessary for work planning, isolations, supporting certificates, issuing permits, precautions during work, revalidation, shift handover and close out of permits.
• A method for monitoring, auditing and reviewing the effectiveness of the PTW system, including the role of System Custodian.
• The geographical boundaries of permit control areas.

7.0 PROCEDURE
The PTW system ensures that for activities generating additional risk in the workplace, additional controls are in place to reduce the risk to acceptable levels (ALARP).
7.1 Risk Assessment
The permit applicant shall confirm if there is an existing JSA prepared for the activity to be performed. If so implement the requirements for the JSA and confirm with the Construction HSSE department if further specific risk assessments are required. See Section 4.2 Ref. [14] for the procedure Worksite Risk Management and TSTI.
If there are no records of an existing JSA a risk assessment should be carried out, before putting a PTW into operation, to identify those activities and types of work where the:
• The inherent risks of the activity assessed as high or medium by the Risk Assessment Matrix identified in the HSSE/SD MS, see Appendix W.
• High risk construction activities where controls are not detailed in other procedures or work instructions.
The following personnel will carry out the process risk assessments:
• PMC and EPC Area Managers for the onshore construction. The boundaries of the working areas will normally be designated by secure fencing and signage
• Pearl GTL Asset Manager for operations in all areas within the fence line of the Pearl GTL Complex (see T-13.369.401) and specific external operated areas including Pearl Platform A; Pearl Platform B, Beach Valve and within 3rd party operated areas of responsibility where specific activities occur that may interfere with Pearl GTL’s operability e.g. Jetty, Offsite Storage, and Pipetracks.
For each phase of the Pearl GTL project Permit Control Areas will be identified, Appendix X, which define the extent of control needed for the activities and types of work that have
Permit To Work Procedure - Construction Phase Pearl GTL Project Revision: 4 Ras Laffan, Qatar Page 12 of 59
5887-ON-PR-HM-013
been assessed. A plot plan which identifies the control areas is shown at Appendix A. Typically the types of control will be:
• TSTI - all tasks are subject to a TSTI, see Appendix Q.
• Permits will be issued as per Section 9.0.
An assessment of maintenance, inspection, repair, testing, construction, dismantling, modification and cleaning activities may require the control of a PTW.
7.2 Permit Planning
Work which it is intended to be placed under permit control must be carefully planned so that interaction with other work is minimised and controlled. The plan, which is made weekly and updated daily by the Construction Supervisor, must take into account the time required to identify the full extent of the work, conduct a hazard analysis and risk assessment, obtain the necessary materials and resources required to complete the work and make operational and engineering preparations. To this end a work permit application should be made a minimum of 24 hours in advance. Urgently required permits will only be issued for emergency work.
7.3 PTW Coordination
It is important to ensure that work activities, requiring a PTW, are coordinated with other CONTRACTORS and neighbouring activities in order to avoid risks caused by simultaneous activities. In Pearl GTL co-ordination will be achieved by nominating a single focal point normally (Construction / Shift Supervisor) who is responsible for the co-ordination of work activities within their own defined areas as defined for each phase of the project and for informing similar focal points where the work may infringe on another area. This role will be carried out in conjunction with the areas permit issuing authorities. The co-ordination duties of these individuals will be to:
• Coordinate all permit to work activities within the area, including those permits which are suspended, but where the work is not complete.
• Inform the relevant authority of any potentially hazardous situations arising from permitted work.
• Ensure all staff involved have an overview of significant ongoing work.
• Operate the permit issue point to reflect the current state of work.
• Provide a quality check on the completion of permits.
7.4 Permit to Work Forms
For construction activities PTW forms shall be used for all activities described in Section 9.0. Permit Forms are provided in Appendices B to Z.
To provide effective control of hazards in the workplace it is necessary that the permit form includes the following information:
• Clear precise description of the work, which includes the actual location of the work, the designated equipment to be worked on, the actual tools and equipment to be used and the planned work method. The description may require other
Permit To Work Procedure - Construction Phase Pearl GTL Project Revision: 4 Ras Laffan, Qatar Page 13 of 59
5887-ON-PR-HM-013
documents to be attached to the permit these may include job hazard analyses, method statements, isolation lists, drawings or sketches.
• Identification of any interfaces with other work being carried out in the same area or in another adjacent area.
• Confirmation that all necessary preparations that have been made. Commonly these will be:
• Mechanical and electrical isolations.
• Clearance of process materials by draining, venting, flushing, purging or ventilation.
• Gas and / or dust testing to confirm that the equipment is free of any flammable, toxic or asphyxiate atmosphere.
• A description of any residual hazards that remain after preparations have been made. The hazards may include residual construction, materials, pressure, temperature and physical hazards arising from the location or work to be carried out.
• A description of any additional precautions or controls which are necessary during the work. Additional precautions or controls may include the use of specific personal protective equipment (PPE) or the frequency of gas testing and monitoring.
• Identification of the validity period.
• After discussing the details of the work, the preparations that have been completed and the controls specified on the permit, the permit issuing authority, focal point construction supervisor and Permit Holder sign the permit to authorise the commencement work and issue the permit. The Permit Holder undertakes to explain to the work party the details of the work, the hazards and the controls.
• Confirmation by the permit holder and the permit issue authority that the work has been completed or suspended and that the site has been left in a clean and safe condition.
7.5 PTW Distribution
Copies of the permit forms and certificates will be provided as follows:
• A signed working master copy to be held by the Permit Issuing Authority whilst the permit is in operation. (When the work is completed and the permit is closed this becomes the file copy).
• An updated copy shall be retained by the Permit Coordinator.
• An updated copy of the master for display at the worksite whenever work is under way.
As well as the permit forms and certificates, additional precautions required for the work can be provided by safety checklists, see Appendices. The checklists are useful for providing instruction and guidance to the Permit Holder and the workforce. The permit will
Permit To Work Procedure - Construction Phase Pearl GTL Project Revision: 4 Ras Laffan, Qatar Page 14 of 59
5887-ON-PR-HM-013
always be prepared in English; however, the checklists may be prepared in several language versions if English is not the first language of the workforce.
7.6 Permit Authorisation
For each permit control area identified in the risk assessment and assessed as requiring permit control (see Appendices A and X), CONTRACTOR line management will identify those personnel who will fulfil the following roles within the permit system:
• Permit Issuing Authority, who is responsible for ensuring that all preparations are complete, and for authorising the work to proceed.
• Authorised Gas Tester, responsible for measuring flammable, toxic and asphyxiate gas, and to interpreting the results.
• Permit Holder, responsible for carrying out the work in accordance with the conditions on the permit.
It is important that the Permit Issuing Authority and the Permit Holder is not the same person. This is to prevent the possibility of a person issuing a permit to himself.
The Pearl GTL Training Manager will identify the levels of competence required for each role and will establish training requirements to maintain the competence. Records of PTW training and authorisation will be kept by the Pearl GTL Training Manager and the Pearl GTL HSSE Manager respectively to demonstrate competence and authorisation of permit signatories.
Only personnel who have successfully completed appropriate PTW training will be authorised to perform signatory roles. Authorisation will be subject to an expiry date no greater than 3 years. The need for refresher training, reassessment and reauthorisation at periods of less than 3 years will be subject to the results from PTW audits. An up-to date list of authorised personnel will be displayed at each permit issue point;
PTW awareness and the use of standard workplace PPE will form a part of the site induction training provided for the whole workforce.
7.7 Validity Period and Revalidation
Individual permits will have a validity period set by the Issuing Authority. The validity period of an individual permit will be based on a proper assessment of the time that the work will take. The maximum allowable period is 30 days after which time a new permit will be prepared. Permits should not routinely be given the maximum allowable validity.
Permits will be re-validated at the start of each shift in order that the Issuing Authority can be satisfied that the conditions under which the permit was originally issued remain unchanged and the permit holder is in control of work at all times. To achieve this the Issuing Authority ensures that:
• No other work is being carried out that could conflict with the work identified on the permit.
• The preparations carried out to make the worksite safe for work remain in place and are still valid.
• The precautions identified on the original permit are still valid.
Permit To Work Procedure - Construction Phase Pearl GTL Project Revision: 4 Ras Laffan, Qatar Page 15 of 59
5887-ON-PR-HM-013
When re-validating a permit it is mandatory that permit issuing authority and the permit holder verify that the worksite remains safe by completing a worksite inspection before the permit is re-validated.
A person authorised as issuing authority may revalidate, close, suspend or cancel any permit.
7.8 Shift Handover
Shift handover increases the risk potential of all work due to the possibility of a failure to pass on information or by passing on incorrect information. In order to reduce this risk the issuing authority and permit holders from each shift must allow sufficient time for a detailed review, revalidation and discussion of the status of all permits.
7.9 Changes and Emergency Conditions
It is the duty of everyone to suspend work should working conditions change or the working environment became potentially hazardous. In the event of a necessary change in the permit conditions caused by the unavailability or suitability of tools or equipment or a need to change the work method or a change in weather conditions that add to the jobs’ risk or a significant change in the work team, the work will be suspended. The coordinator / issuing authority and permit holder will then reassess the work and conditions and issue a new or revalidate the permit before allowing the work to restart.
In the event of an emergency alarm on the site personnel will take the action identified in the Emergency Response Procedure Section 4.1 [Ref.6], this will often result in work stopping for a period of time and all permits being void. Post-emergency, but before work is restarted, work will be reassessed and permits revalidated / cancelled or suspended.
7.10 Close-out and Return to Service
When the work is complete all copies of the permit will be returned to the issuing authority. The issuing authority and the permit holder will then inspect the work site and jointly confirm that they are satisfied that the work has been completed and the worksite has been left in a safe and clean condition.
The issuing authority and permit holder will also ensure that all isolations (Electrical and Mechanical) been removed or are covered by another permit. They will then sign to confirm that isolations remaining in place are referenced to the relevant isolation certificate and work permit.
Where alarm systems or fire and gas detection / protection systems has been overridden in order to allow work to proceed, these will normally be cancelled as part of the permit method statement. However, the issuing authority must be satisfied that such overrides are no longer in place and have been cancelled.
The issuing authority and the permit holder are then able to sign the permit close out certificate to confirm that the work is complete.
7.11 Records
The master copy of completed permits, supporting documentation and certificates will be retained by the PMC / Asset Holder until the end of the project.
Permit To Work Procedure - Construction Phase Pearl GTL Project Revision: 4 Ras Laffan, Qatar Page 16 of 59
5887-ON-PR-HM-013
The following records will be retained by the COMPANY, Pearl GTL PMC, Training Departments until the end of the project:
• PTW signatories’ course records,
• Permit training,
• Refresher training,
• Periodic inspection reports and check sheets,
• Independent audit reports and the results from management reviews.
7.12 Monitoring, Audit and Review
The Permit Issuing Authority, Permit Holder and / or HSSE personnel will monitor work under permit control on a daily basis. Monitoring will including spot checks to ensure that:
• Worksite safety precautions are adequate and controls are being implemented
• Permits have been completed correctly and being displayed at the worksite.
• The work party been briefed and have an understanding of what the work entails, the safety precautions that must be taken and the controls that must be implemented
Periodic inspections of the way the PTW system is being implemented will be carried out at 3 month intervals by an HSSE Advisor using a permit picked at random and the check list at Appendix O. The results from these inspections will be used to improve the operation of the PTW system and the training of those who use it.
An independent audit of the operation of the PTW system across the whole site will be carried out at 2 year intervals as required by the Pearl GTL HSSE Internal audit programme. The frequency of the internal HSSE audits will be dependent on results from the previous audits or the frequency of workplace incidents.
As part of the continuous improvement of HSSE Management that results from the management review process detailed in Pearl GTL HSSE MS Management Review Procedure, management will review the effectiveness of the PTW system annually and modify it where necessary

1 Slight Injury or health effect - Not affecting work performance and not affecting daily life activities. E.g.
• First aid cases and medical treatment cases.
• Exposure to health hazards that give rise to noticeable discomfort, minor irritations or transient effects reversible after exposure stops.
1 Slight damage – Cost is less than $10,000. E.g.
• No disruption to the operation.
2 Minor Injury or health effect - Affecting work performance, such as restriction to work activities or the need to take up to 5 days to fully recover. Or affecting daily life activities for up to 5 days. Or reversible health effects. E.g.
• Restricted workday cases or lost work day cases resulting in up to 5 calendar days away from work.
• Illnesses such as skin irritation or food poisoning.
2 Minor damage – Costs between $10,000 and $100,000. E.g.
• Brief disruption to operations.
3 Major injury or health effect – Affecting work performance in the longer term, such as absence from work for more than 5 days. Or affecting daily life activities for more than 5 days. Or irreversible damage to health. E.g.
• Long term disability (previously referred to as Permanent Partial Disabilities).
• Illnesses such as sensitisation, noise induced hearing loss, chronic back injury, repetitive strain injury or stress.
3 Moderate damage - Costs between $100,000 and $1,000,000. E.g.
• Partial shutdown.
4 Permanent Total Disability * (PTD) or one to three fatalities – Resulting from injuries or occupational illness. E.g.
• Illnesses such as corrosive burns, asbestosis, silicosis, cancer and serious work related depression.
• Car accident resulting in 1, 2 or 3 fatalities.
4 Major damage - Costs between 1 and $10,000,000. E.g.
• Up to two weeks shutdown.
