7.2 Safety
Goals and Standards
CLP
Power has adopted the 5-Star health and safety system, which is Independent,
internationally recognised and enables CLP Power to
benchmark its safety performance against other companies internationally. The
5-Star system is an audit of each site against a detailed list of factors which
contribute to the overall level of safety.
It also includes a criterion of injury statistics. The result is a rating
for each site on a scale of up to five Stars, and an indication of where
efforts are succeeding and where more
effort is required.
The
target is to achieve 5-Star rating on all sites and at the present time,
GBG will continue to implement the total safety approach and behavioural based safety in managing our safety
performance. GBG would further entrench our SHEQ culture with quality drive in
attaining performance excellence
BPCEPC has adopted the Process Safety Management Standard
(American Petroleum Institute Recommended Practice #750 and US-OSHA) for
establishing and maintaining its standard for operations on a world-wide basis.
The Process Management Standard focuses on communications of process
information to employees and contract personnel, hazards analysis and
communications, incident investigation and reporting; permitting system for hot
work and confined space activities; and
auditing.
7.3 Site Organisation
and Manning Levels
The management structure and levels in BPPS,
CPPS and BPCEPC is shown in fig. 7.3.1
Figure 7.3.1
7.4 Responsibilities of Key Operating Positions
CAPCO
and its Operators recognise the benefit and
importance of a broad range of qualifications for key operational positions.
These include a mix of experience, maturity and corporate and professional
qualifications. In addition CAPCO and its Operators appreciate that technical
competence and expertise further enhances the quality of its key operational
positions.
CLP
Power engaged several experienced practitioners in the natural gas operating
field during the initial natural gas operations stage between 1995 and 1998.
Most of the natural gas operation policy and procedures were developed during
this period. After CLP Power had gained sufficient experience and knowledge to
continue to operate safely and effectively, Gas Engineering Team (later called
Fuel Technology Team) with members from internal natural gas experts were
formed to continue to enforce the safe operations of natural gas facilities.
The
acceptable mix of qualifications will depend on the job classification and
reflects the level of responsibility and accountability. Examples of
established standards include:
Senior
Management must have at least 10 years
experience in appropriate, managerial and/or engineering posts in a relevant
industry with minimum qualification of a recognised
college/university degree, or membership/registration in a recognised
professional body or extensive relevant experience.
Senior
Management are responsible for setting policy and goals and ensuring safe,
effective and efficient operation and maintenance of the facility and
personnel.
Middle
Management must have at least 5 years
working experience in appropriate managerial and/or engineering posts in a
relevant industry with similar qualifications to senior management. The
incumbents in these positions possess expertise and experience to effectively support Senior Management in the
operation and maintenance of the facility.
Middle
Management is directly accountable to Senior Management and responsible for
operations in a designated facility or area. They provide direction to
subordinates to accomplish all necessary task within the limits of policy,
procedures and engineering and safety standards.
Supervisory
Level personnel are responsible for
execution of tasks under the direction of their supervision/management. The
qualifications for the third and fourth level positions (together forming the
Supervisory Level) vary according to the nature of the position. The positions
may include engineer, technician and foreman. A recognised
college/university qualification, or membership/registration in a recognised professional body or appropriate relevant
experience is required for the engineer and
technical level positions.
7.5 Safety
Management Practices
7.5.1 Occupational Safety &
Health Management System
The objective of the Occupational Safety
& Health Management System (OSHMS) is to support GBG’s
goal of providing an injury free and healthy working environment, through the
application of a structured approach for safety and health management that
complies with external and internal safety and health requirements and conforms
to CLP Power Safety, Health, Environment and Quality Policy Statement.
In line with this objective, the
OSHMS is to provide a comprehensive management framework for establishing appropriate
safety and health standards, programs and training for implementation in GBG
for the purpose of:
· Achieving objective/goal of the CLP Power Safety, Health, Environment
and Quality (SHEQ) Policy Statement and CLP Power SHEQ Policy on Contractors
& Supplier
· Achieving full compliance with statutory and company’s safety and health
requirements
· Identifying the safety and health issues of GBG facilities, activities,
products and services
· Establishing short and long-term safety and health objectives and targets
· Developing Safety, Health and Environment Plan and safety management
plans and programs to meet objectives and targets
· Establishing responsibilities and provide resources for the
implementation, maintenance and improvement of this OSHMS, to ensure proper
management of GBG’s safety and health issues
· Verifying compliance with regulatory requirements and company policy,
evaluate safety and health performance against GBG’s
objectives and targets, and communicate outcome of the evaluation
· Minimizing risk and preventing losses due to occupational safety and
health incident
· Ensuring systems are in place for the anticipation, identification,
evaluation, monitoring, control and management of occupational hygiene
stresses.
· Enhancing the safety and health standards of all GBG operations through
continuous improvements.
CLP Power Operations Integrity Management System
CLP Power operates within a well
established Operation Integrity Management System (OIMS) which is adopted for
both Black Point and Castle Peak Power Station.
OIMS is adopted as a management framework
specifically to assist the accomplishment of safety, health and environmental
objectives. It is to be applied to all systems for managing process, plant,
equipment and activities within GBG. It builds upon and will enhance existing
programs to ensure operations integrity.
GBG will commit to implement OIMS in all
operational activities with the management leadership and commitment as
required under OIMS Element 1 - which requires that management establishes
policy, provides the perspective, establishes the framework, sets the
expectations, and provides the resources for successful operations.
There are
eleven principle elements to OIMS which are used as a reference to ensure that
systems and procedures are achieving expectations. The elements include
management, risk, facilities, documentation, personnel, operation &
maintenance, change, third party, incident, emergency, assessment. An
additional “OIMS element 12 – Asset management” and the corresponding management
principles have been drafted, which imposes the essential requirements for
effective management of GBG assets.
BPCEPC
Health, Safety and Environmental Procedure
BPCEPC have
developed a Health, Safety and Environmental Procedure which are consistent
practice by all their employees. The Health, Safety and Environmental Procedure
includes the safety practise of offshore platform, Nanshan Shore Base, offshore gas pipeline, gas receiving
station and also the main office building in Shekou.
The goals for
BPCEPC are simply stated – no accidents, no harm to people and no damage to
environment. BPCEPC will continue to drive down the environmental and health
impact of their operations by reducing waste, emissions and discharges, and
using energy efficiently. BPCEPC will produce quality products that can be used
safely by their customers.
7.5.2 Safety
assessment for new projects
Under
the Operational Integrity Management System, CLP Power begins evaluating the
potential risk at the conceptual stage of the project, and continues to do so
throughout the life of the plant. This is done to help reduce risk to a minimum
whilst still satisfying the commercial needs. The techniques used include preliminary
hazard assessment , Quantitative risk assessment (QRA) for potentially
hazardous installations, area
classification and Hazard and Operability (HAZOP) studies.
CLP
Power has a commitment to minimise the quantity of
hazardous materials on any new sites. This is an important part of the safety
assessment of new projects and expansions
to existing projects.
BPCEPC
has utilised both qualitative and quantitative
process hazards analysis for the purpose of risk identification and analysis.
Multiple Failure Effects Analysis (MFEA), Fault Tree Analysis (FTA) and HAZOP
were used at various design stages of the project to ensure risks were minimised. BPCEPC has adopted the operational rule of
"three failures to safe" as a guiding principle for its operations.
In other words, for any particular process component or system, three separate
failures could occur and operational conditions would remain safe. This
principle ensures adequate redundancy and controls are applied to process
design and operations.
As potential
problems were realised during the process hazards
analysis, a formal system for communicating these potential problems was used.
These potential problem reports were reviewed by Engineering, Production, the
Project Management Team and Safety, Health and Environmental Personnel.
Appropriate solutions for correcting, addressing and/or managing these problem
areas were documented on the report and implemented
in the field.
In
addition to the process hazards analysis, an independent safety, health and environmental
protection audit was conducted during the final design. This audit focused on
compliance with design basis, regulatory compliance, cause and effect charts,
layout, operational controls, operational procedures and practices. The audit
findings were presented to BPCEPC Management and the Project Management Team. A
formal response to the audit findings, including an itemised
response and action plan for addressing each audit finding, was presented to
the audit team. The audit team periodically monitored responses, as well as
updates to ensure appropriate measures were
taken during the course of construction, installation, commissioning and
start-up.
7.5.3 Inspection and maintenance
Black Point and
Penny’s Bay Power Station (BPPS/PBPS), Castle Peak Power Station (CPPS)and
Generation Maintenance Department (GMD) have developed schedule, routine
procedures and instructions for regular inspection and maintenance of the gas
system. These included the liaison with other departments, third parties and those
responsible for gas transmission process and control, i.e. System Operation of
CLP Power and Gas Receiving Station of BPCEPC. Fuel Technology / TSD is
normally the representative from CLP Power responsible to liaison with BPCEPC
on maintenance activities.
In
view of this organisation structure and limited
manpower of the Station, a Computerised Maintenance
Management System (CMMS) provides the station staff at all levels with adequate
information for the management of operation and maintenance of the station assets and plant equipment and
maintenance process installed.
This
CMMS provides sufficient information for the Station Management to exercise
Management Control and for Maintenance Engineers to make Engineering Decision.
It also smoothes work order flow, inventory control and cost analysis.
1.1.1
Maximo Series 5 is
selected as the basic modules for CMMS in BPPS. Maximo
system is made up of 12 interconnected modules tied to an Oracle database on a
HP UNIX server.
BPCEPC
utilises a computer based preventive maintenance
system, MAXIMO, for generating work orders for inspection and maintenance of
equipment, controls and systems at each operating location. Inspection and
maintenance frequencies are established in the system based on regulatory
requirements or internationally accepted maintenance standards, such as
outlined by the American Petroleum Institute. In addition to generating work
orders, each inspection and/or maintenance performed is documented into the
system, providing a documented performance and maintenance history on each
piece of equipment or system on site.
Performance
and Regulatory Compliance, as pertaining to the preventive maintenance
conducted on site, are monitored and evaluated on a quarterly basis during the
safety, health and environmental audits conducted at each operating location.
Any deficiencies are noted in the audit report and must be addressed by
facility supervision.
7.5.4 Procedures for altering design/equipment
Management of Change
The Management of Change
System (MOC) applies to any addition, revision, deletion, modification, or
replacement (except replacement in kind) that has impact on safety, health
& environment, regulatory compliance and plant integrity & reliability.
The
Objectives of the System are to ensure:
·
Changes are
identified
·
Changes are
evaluated and control measures are in place to address SHE risks introduced,
impact on regulatory compliance or relate to plant integrity & reliability that
would lead to major loss in operation
·
SHE Risks
associated with the change are assessed and managed as appropriate
·
Changes are
documented and communicated to affected parties
·
Training on the
change if required
·
Evaluation is
performed on the outcome / result of the change in meeting the original intent
/ purpose
·
Temporary
changes and their need, scope, time frame and control measures are reviewed
regularly
BPCEPC follows its Management of Change
procedure as outlined in the BP HSE manual. All temporary and permanent changes
to organization, personnel, systems, procedures, equipment, products, materials
or substances will be evaluated and managed to ensure that health, safety and
environmental risks arising from these changes remain at an acceptable level.
7.5.5 Procedures for updating procedures
All
CLP Power procedures are being incorporated into the OIMS system which ensures
all documents are numbered and have a revision date on. The controlled copies
are the most up to date version, and any changes to the procedures have to be
approved by the responsible manager for the
particular group of procedures.
As
noted in Section 7.5.4, BPCEPC utilises the
Management of Change Standard outlined in its Safety and Health Manual as a
means for reviewing any operating procedural changes, particularly those which
affect design, safety or control system intent. The same procedures would apply
as noted previously. As required, HAZOP analysis are conducted for procedural
changes. BPCEPC’s practice concerning Operating,
Emergency, Safety, Health and Environmental Procedures is to review each
procedure periodically (at least annually) to ensure they reflect actual
operations, comply with regulatory requirements and incorporate regulatory
requirements. Any changes to these procedures are communicated to all
personnel.
7.5.6 Permit-to-work system
The
Power System Safety Rules states that no repairs, maintenance, cleaning or
alternation can be carried out on any system in the power station without a
valid safety document in force except those specified in the Safety Rules such
as floating of safety valves and hydraulic test. The safety document required
may be a Permit-to-Work, Permit-to-Work with restoration of Motive Power,
Limited Work Certificate or Sanction For Test depending on the nature of the
work to be undertaken, and these safety documents will only be issued in strict
accordance with the current Power System Safety Rules.
For
BPCEPC, before conducting work that involves confined space entry, work on
energy systems, ground disturbance in locations where buried hazards may exist,
or hot work in potentially explosive environments, a permit must be obtained
that :
·
Defines scope of work
·
Identifies hazards and
assesses risk establishes control measures to eliminate or mitigrate
hazards
·
Links the work to other
associated work permits or simultaneous operations
·
Is authorized by the
responsible person
·
Communicates above
information to all involved in the work
·
Ensures adequate control
over the return to normal operations
7.5.7 Arrangements with contractors on safety matters
A
contractor management system was set up to provide an incident-free working
environment by establishing a safety awareness culture through effective and
efficient third party service management practices, this includes:
·
Ensure
contractors perform in a manner consistent and compatible with the GBG's policies and business objectives, CLP corporate SHE
policy, as well as in compliance with the legislation.
·
Provide for the
evaluation and selection of suppliers capable of performing work in a safe and
environmentally sound manner.
·
Provide guidance
on Company requirements for effective third party services management.
·
Provide regular
feedback on supplier performance to encourage continual improvement in the
service provided, and ensure that deficiencies are corrected.
The partnership
approach with contractors has already yielded good results on SHE performance
of contractors. The approach is to be further cultivated so that we could work
closely with contractors’ SHE personnel to enhance and motivate them to deliver
the expected roles and results. Also, CLP Power needs to review the
effectiveness of the regular SHE induction course and the monthly contractor briefing
to further improve their effectiveness and quality to ensure these are
organized and delivered in a quality and efficient manner.
BPCEPC provides its own induction
course and appropriate orientation for its employees and contractors applicable
to the inherent hazards of a gas production facility. Requirements have been
developed for contractors and their subcontractors performing work on BP
facilities/work site and exclusively for BP at contractor work sites.
Contractors will ensure that any subcontractor whom they employ meets these
same requirements. Contractors will take any additional precautions necessary
to prevent harm to personnel or damage to property and the environment.

During
normal operations, the Gas Receiving Station does not have an ample number of
personnel to support a site safety committee. However, site safety, health and
environmental issues are discussed in weekly safety meetings. These issues are
forwarded to the Production Manager and the Safety, Health and Environmental Protection Manager in Shekou
for handling, as appropriate.
In
addition, BPCEPC has established a Safety, Health and Environmental Council in Shekou, PRC, which includes Executive Management as
Members. The Safety, Health and Environmental Protection Manager co-ordinates
quarterly Council Meetings to discuss all safety, health and environmental
protection issues, such as those addressed in the weekly safety meetings. The
Production Managers, Drilling Manager, Materials Manager, Project Team
Management and Human Resources Management are included in the quarterly
meetings as sub-committee chairpersons, reporting and discussing relevant
safety, health and environmental performance and relevant issues. Council
Meeting Minutes are distributed to all participating member and sub-committee
chairpersons to use as a communication tool to subordinate personnel within the
organisation.
7.7 Review
of Human Tasks and Possible Errors
CLP Power
addresses the review of human tasks and possible errors in a number of ways and
at each stage in the development of a project.
At the design
stage, risk assessment and risk analysis are performed and areas of potential
problem are identified and the problem eliminated or mitigated. Human Factor
consideration is accessed during the HAZOP process of the system.
Moreover, there
are operating and maintenance instructions for all tasks that will be performed
on the stations. All the GBG staff will follow the instructions to carry out
the works. Job safety analysis also carry out to reduce the risk.
For BPCEPC, the
potential for human tasks or human errors are reviewed as a part of the Process
Hazards Analysis. Any potential risk or errors are minimised
or eliminated during the design and construction phase. During operation, the
GRS supervisor is designated the responsibility for reviewing the performance
of tasks by both BPCEPC personnel and its contractors for potential task of
human errors.
7.8 Staff
Recruitment and Training
CAPCO
and its Operators recognise that personnel, whose work
could affect the safety of the facilities, equipment and operations, must have
and maintain the necessary knowledge and skills to execute their functions
safely. Employees receive adequate training prior to being assigned to
positions involved in the gas systems. The Operators also ensure that each
employee receives the appropriate refresher training necessary to maintain the required knowledge and skill levels.
Key
managerial, professional and technical operational positions receive specific
training related to the safe performance of their jobs either locally or
internationally. This training include safe facility design and layout; safe
work, operational and maintenance practices; emergency response; hazards identification,
control and management; incident investigation and mitigation techniques; and
safety auditing techniques, as applicable.
Operators,
technicians, foremen and tradesmen have structured on-the-job and classroom
training programs regarding safe operations and maintenance practices for gas
systems. These training programs are arranged internally or with a recognised institution.
Appropriate measures are in place to ensure training and
appropriate authorisation of the various levels of
personnel required to work on the gas system. Contractor's personnel training
will be evaluated prior to work commencement and monitored during the duration of the contract.Training records are maintained
and monitored for all employees of the Operators.
7.8.1 Training
Plan
The training plan highlights key training areas identified as essential
to ensure management and operational staff are fully trained to meet the
demands of using natural gas as a fuel for power generation. The training of
all staff is documented and recorded.

staff are required to attend all required training under PRC and Hong Kong SAR
regulations and ensure that training is current.
7.9 Internal
Audit of Company Safety Management System
CLP
Power operates the OIM system which has an internal audit plan and each section
is audited at some point during a year. In addition, the companies Safety
Management Systems are audited on annual basis.
Operation review:
The
monitoring of compliance with operating procedures is conducted on a continuous
and programmed audit/review basis.
All
operations within CLP Power are under close supervision by qualified and
trained shift managers on a continuous 24 hour basis. The supervision is also
extended to cover front line maintenance and trouble shooting carried out by
the shift maintenance personnel and contractors.
BPCEPC
also provide continuous manning of gas receiving facilities
The
Operators have procedures for control of operational systems to ensure safe
operation, work permit procedures are in place and utilised
at all the Operators' facilities.
Adherence
to operational procedures is facilitated by periodic audits, manual and computerised logs, operational records, data sheets, trend
charts and routine maintenance and testing.
Operations integrity assessment:
CAPCO
and its Operators have adopted a process that measures performance relative to
expectations which is essential to improve the operation and maintain
accountability. A system has been established as an approach for measuring how
well operations are meeting goals and objectives.
As
noted in previous sections, BPCEPC has established a comprehensive safety,
health and environmental protection auditing program for all its operating
facilities. BPCEPC has commenced to conduct comprehensive safety, health and
environmental audits of all its operating facilities and will continue each
year. The objectives of this comprehensive internal audit effort are to: verify
the compliance status of the facility with applicable regulations; verify the
compliance status of the facility with respect to BPCEPC policies and design
basis; confirm that applicable safety, health and environmental management
controls are in place and functioning properly; and access current practices to
identify areas or situations requiring corrective measures.
