2 41W ',, r.dri - -- %Maw *- -, ii- Ok C WOC-HSE-ST June of 16 PURPOSE The fire prevention, protection and control procedure is developed to establish the protection plans for all aspects of operations (drilling, production, wireline, workover, construction, etc.) from fires. APPLICATION This standard applies for providing fire prevention and fire protection equipment, plan and program within operation field. 3. DEFINITIONS Class "A" Fires Class "B" Fires Class "C" Fires Class "D" Fires Combustible Combustible Liquid Enclosed Area Fire Protection, Active Fire Protection, Passive Occur in ordinary combustible materials such as wood, cloth, and paper. Extinguishing agents most commonly used are water and type ABC dry chemical agent. Occur in the vapor-air mixture over the surface of a flammable liquid such as grease, gasoline, or oil. BC type dry chemical, foam, carbon dioxide, and water fog may be used as extinguishing agents. Occur in electrical equipment. Non-conducting extinguishing agents must be used. Carbon dioxide is the most suitable extinguishing agents. Dry chemical agents can be used, but require extensive clean-up of equipment after the fire. Occur in combustible materials such as magnesium, titanium, zirconium, and sodium. Specialized techniques, extinguishing agents, and extinguishing equipment have been developed to control and extinguish fires of this class. The most commonly used agent is MET-L-X. Capable of burning A liquid having a flash point at or above 100 F (37.8 C) A three-dimensional space enclosed by more than two thirds (2/3) of the possible protected plane surface area and of sufficient size to allow the entry of personnel. For a typical building, this would require that more than 2/3 of the walls, ceiling, and/or floor be present. Any fire protection system or component which requires the manual or automatic detection of a fire and which initiates a consequential response. Any fire protection system or component, which, by its inherent nature, plays an inactive role in the protection of personnel and property from damage by fire. Passive fire

Capable of igniting easily, burning intensely, or spreading flame rapidly. The lower and upper percentages by volume of concentration of gas in a gas-air mixture that will form an ignitable mixture. A liquid having a flash point below 100 F (37.8 C) and having a vapor pressure not exceeding 40 psi absolute (276 kilopascals) at 100 F (37.8 C). The lowest temperature at which the vapor pressure of the liquid is just sufficient to produce a flammable mixture at the lower limit of flammability. A facility on which people are routinely accommodated for more than twelve hours per day. A continuous and unobstructed way of exit travel from any point in a building or structure to a public way and consists of three separate and distinct parts; (a) the exit access, (b) the exit, and (c) the exit discharge. A means of egress comprises the vertical and horizontal travel and shall include intervening room spaces, doorways, hallways, corridors, passageways, balconies, ramps, stairs, enclosures, lobbies, escalators, horizontal exits, courts and yards. Ventilation (natural or artificial) that is sufficient to prevent the accumulation of significant quantities of vapor-air mixtures in concentrations above 25 percent of their lower flammable (explosive) limit (LFL). Roles and Responsibilities The Site Line Management is accountable for the compliance to this standard. Any deviation from this standard requires a Risk Assessment and management approval.

Detectors with abnormal sensitivities shall be replaced or cleaned and recalibrated. Detector manufacturer shall recommend and approve the method, device and equipment for checking the sensitivity. 8. Passive Fire Protection 8.1. Passive fire protection is defined as any fire protection system that by its nature plays an inactive role in the protection of personnel and property from damage by fire. Passive fire protection is quite often generically referred to as structural fire protection (SFP). Examples of passive fire protection systems would be spray-on insulating materials or insulating blankets of fireproof materials. Generally, passive fire protection is not used as the only means of fire protection, but rather it is used in concert with active fire protective systems. This is because passive fire protection does not provide inherent protection and is normally effective only for a finite time period. Once passive fire protection is exhausted, the protected component is vulnerable to damage by fire. Examples of where passive fire protection is used are: critical structural steel, living quarters, firewalls, etc Periodic visual inspections are recommended with repairs as warranted.

This plan shall indicate the abandon facility signal, the location of both primary and secondary means of escape and location of means of egress Fire drills shall be conducted for each crew at least on a monthly basis by the person in charge at all facilities. The drill should be conducted as if an actual fire existed All facilities areas shall be provided with means of egress sufficient for personnel to escape from a fire or other emergency situation and to travel to a means of escape. Means of egress shall be arranged and maintained so as to be readily accessible to personnel onboard.
