Health and Safety is No Accident
We cannot be a “quality” organization unless we apply sound management principles to health and safety.
Our policy is to reduce the costs of injuries, illness, property and equipment damage, fewer production stoppages, higher output, and better quality.
Our aim is to control all accidental loss. Identify hazards and assess risks, deciding what precautions are needed, putting them in place and checking they are used protects people, improves quality and safeguards plant and production. Your health and safety policy should influence all your activities, including the selection of people, equipment, materials, and processes, the way work is done, and how goods and services are designed and provided.
Fire Fighting
Active monitoring before things go wrong involves regular inspection and checking to ensure that your standards are being implemented and management controls are working.
Reactive monitoring after things go wrong involves investigating injuries, cases of illness, property damage, and near misses, identifying in each case why performance was sub-standard.
We follow the international laws for risk assessment.
Maintenance
We have a workshop for maintenance of fire fighting (truck & ambulance) and another workshop for maintenance of fire fighting loops and fixed & moving equipment for fire fighting systems.
Training
The company has a specialized training center for fire fighting and safety equipped with various training facilities. Training programs for fire fighting, safety, and rescue works (Practical / theoretical). Practical training in a training yard of about 13000 m².
Fire Alarm System Graphic Panel System
Change all fire alarm conventional systems, the signal from optical smoke, heat & IR & combustible gas L.E.L% to be addressable signals and connected to a local intelligent addressable panel in the sites, and also transmit these addressable signals from the different sites to the main safety building.
Connect signals between gas detection (ppm) from PVC, VCM, Cl2 units and safety building to graphic panel. Measure the pressure for the network fire water to be an intelligent addressable panel and identify the wind speed direction from different sites and also safety building to be addressable signals, and connected to the intelligent addressable panels.
Alarm System and Fire Fighting
Replacement of the Halon system by a clean agent fire extinguishing system FM 200.
EPC new project philosophy: Replacement of Halon 1301 system by FM200 fire suppression system which is installed in accordance with the standard on clean agent fire extinguishing system NFPA 2004 to be used in accordance with the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). FM200 (HFC – 227ea) is produced under ISO 9002.
Exposure to FM200 at the design concentration of 6.4% and up to 9% is not hazardous to health. Environmental - Ozone Depletion (ODP) zero.
Environmental Control
The main mission of the Environmental sector is to protect human health and increase environmental performance between the petroleum ministry and the environment ministry. It has been working for cleaner production and a healthier environment for the employees.
