In pandemic situation, major hazard to company can be identify
by a process safety approach or by procedural approach
Process Safety approach
Barrier Management : Keep it in pipes and Bow Tie Approach to
understand the risk in our facility.

Procedural approach
Barrier Management - Follow procedure & Response as per procedure,
with focus on the following:
1. Country and Company Health protocols : PPE, Social Distancing,
Hygiene requirements.
2. Contractor Safety Management (refer to Country & Company Health
protocols).
3. Operational protocols to outbreak & positive cases.
4. Shutdown & Specific maintenance procedure including reservation
materials.

Dynamic Barrier Management

• Integrity Management program are not sufficient:
• These focus on hardware systems
• Do not address human or organizational barriers
• The same approach as Risk Based Inspection (RBI):
• Reduce inspection cost while improving safety (aim of RBI)
• Model corrosion degradation and focus inspection on higher risks (method)
• Sceptical initially – but the API 580/581 approach did work
• Deployed globally

• Dynamic Barrier Management aims to do the same:

• Model barrier degradation and predict impact on risk (cumulative)
• Prioritize repairs / remediation on the barriers with the greatest risk
contribution
• Sharper management focus

5. Passive Hardware Hardware – No. active part (e.g. Blast Wall, Fire Wall, PFP)

Major Incident Hazards

Aset Integrity report – HSE UK 2009
Major Accident Hazards (MAHs) typically
inclide major fires, explosions, major toxic
as releases, ship cllision, helicopter crash,
and other events with a potential to
result in multiple fatalities and significant
damage to the facility.
Tier 1 and Tier 2 incidents can be
potential MAHs.

Pandemic & Outbreak management
• Symptomp reported and if outbreak happened or one person
positive tested during & after working inside the plant, RT-PCR test
for going in and going out personnel.
• Deep disinfection for the room & facility.
• Isolate for 14 days for offshore facilities – welfare support ready
including medivac.
• Positive tested personnel with symptomp (w/ doctor judgement) will
need to abandon offshore facilities and treated in onshore facilities.
• Report to doctor after isolation for clearance back to work.

• Symptomp reported and if outbreak happened or one person

positive tested due to personal activities (typically onshore), RT-PCR
test for all personnel who had met with the suspect within last 7
days. Re-test every 5-8 days depending type of work.
• Home isolation even if negative result after tested for Covid-19.
• Report to doctor after isolation for clearance back to work.

IOGP 544
• IOGP 544 report standardizes the types and categories of process safety barriers.
The target audience is all leaders and workers that contribute to process safety
performance on an asset.
• The terminology provides a basis of common understanding which companies can
use to further refine or develop more detail as appropriate to their activities.
• The use of consistent and simple terminology is aimed at personnel at all levels
and will assist in communication. The standardization and common understanding
will assist the review of bow ties and related tools to ensure clarity and
completeness.
• Barrier standardization also provides the means to identify areas of shortfall in a
consistent way, gathering data from more operations (and operators) enabling
trending and focus on the specific causes of failure on certain barriers and
facilitate improvements.
This figure illustrates how consistently defined information drawn
from events and incidents can provide learning to strengthen
barriers, reduce risk and improve operating performance.

Using consistent barrier definitions through this cycle enables the

identification of trends in similar barrier failures and the
opportunity to learn and improve.

Barrier is a risk control that seeks to prevent unintended events
