4 SERVICES OFFERED DESIGN SAFETY Design Safety support for projects, large or small, from conceptual stage to construction, is available covering the following areas: Safety Philosophy Safety Concept Fire Prevention and Flammable/Toxic Gas detection Philosophy Emergency Response Plan: Identify credible emergency scenarios and determine mitigation measures. Produce a plan identifying responsible personnel, line of command, procedure(s) to be followed, means of communication, resources to be deployed and post-incident recovery. Active Fire Suppression Systems (deluge, water mist, clean agent, foam) Fire water (FW) system design: FW demand, FW storage, FW main and jockey pump capacity and sparing philosophy, FW ring main routing and sizing, and location of isolation valves, hydrants, and monitors. Passive Fire Protection: Assess pool and jet fire hazard, recommend where passive fire protection is needed (pipe rack support, vessel skirt, cable tray etc), what type (SS jacketing on process insulation, cement-based, epoxy), and to what extent. Consequence Analysis: Model potential loss of containment using Phast (or equivalent) software to determine the extent of thermal radiation (jet, pool or flash fire), blast overpressure, threshold limit value (TLV) boundaries for toxic components and probable loss of life/ maximum foreseeable loss. Fire and Gas Detection Systems: Assess probable sources of loss of containment, determine location of the detectors, type of detectors (3IR, infrared, catalytic bead, point vs. open path), voting logic and action upon activation. Plant Layout Review: Ensure compliance with customer s, national and international codes and standards, recommend inter-unit and interequipment spacing and arrangement, mitigate identified hazards, recommend location of permanent and portable occupied buildings.

5 Code analysis: Compliance with Alberta/National Building and Fire Codes Escape, Evacuation and Rescue Analysis (EERA): Analyze the requirements for escape, evacuation and rescue for major accident hazards (MAH) scenarios and recommend measures to reduce risk of harm to people to as low as reasonably practicable (ALARP). Provide EERA plan/drawings showing escape/ evacuation routes, and muster and embarkation points. Safety Equipment Analysis (type, quantity, and location) Third party review of Consultant s reports and studies TRAINING The following training courses tailored to meet your organization s specific needs are offered on an in-house basis at your premises providing the most cost effective means of meeting the training needs of your personnel: Safety and Loss Control Management Hazard and Operability Study (HAZOP) Accident/Incident Investigation Permit to Work System Confined Space Entry Occupational Health H2S Hazards Other courses can be arranged to meet the specific needs of your organization. PROCEDURES & MANUALS Loss Control Standard Manual Safety Procedure & Regulation Manual Emergency Plan & Procedure Manual Hazardous Substance Manual Safety Equipment Specification Manual Engineering Standards
