Multiple casualties or loss of life

Inform Next of Kin (NoK) in the case of fatalities

Significant or potentially significant environmental damage

Significant or potentially significant asset damage

A requirement to inform or evacuate the public

A requirement for resources outside of PDO Emergency Services

A requirement for Governmental or Group notifications

A requirement for long term business resumption strategies

Interest from local or international media

The CECC shall advise the Local Emergency Control Centre as required and may if the natures of the incident warrants assume overall charge.


Printed 27/04/23



2.2 Local Emergency Control Centre (LECC)The Local Emergency Control Centres shall be located at each area centre and shall be manned when an emergency is reported and response is required. In the interior the LECC shall be manned by designated members of the Area Production Operations Team and headed by the Local Emergency Base Controller (LEBC) typically the Production Coordinator. However in the interior there shall always be three fully trained LEBC’s on site at any one time. These are normally the Production Coordinator, the Mechanical Supervisor and the Electrical Supervisor. Any of these nominated persons can assume the role of LEBC.

At the coast (MAF) the LEBC shall be selected from MAF technical staff on a roster basis. The LECC Team at MAF shall also be selected from the available staff. The duty period of the LEBC and the LECC Team is one working week, during which time they shall be expected to respond to any emergency in or outside of working hours.

The LEBC is available at all times and is the initial point of contact for either the Emergency telephone Operator (ETO) or the Area Control Room Operator.

Typically the LECC Team should comprise all or some of the following:

LEBC

Engineering

Logistics / Procurement

Human Resources

Facilities / Business Support

Information Technology

Emergency Response and Security

Medical

Government Gas

Oman Gas Company (if required)

2.3 Emergency Telephone Operator (ETO) – Central Control Room Operator

Emergency calls placed on non-PDO networks and the coastal PDO network (67) will in all cases be routed to the ETO in MAF. For emergencies relating to the interior locations, the MAF ETO will forward the call to the relevant area central control room operator.

All emergency telephone calls made on the PDO interior network (38) will be directed to the area Central Control Room Operator. The CCR operator is authorised to mobilise area fire and medical emergency services. He is also authorized to remotely shutdown equipment and stations if emergency situation demands.

2.4 On Scene Commander (OSC)The OSC shall be trained and nominated the LEBC to manage the emergency response at the site of the incident. The OSC will take the OSC bag and proceed to the emergency scene. The OSC will make an initial assessment, report back to the LEBC and act on the LEBC’s instructions


Printed 27/04/23



2.4.1 Fire ServicesPDO maintain a minimum of one firefighting tender and team at each of the main operating areas in the interior. Typical composition of a team is a Fire Chief and six full time firemen.

PDO fire teams are trained and certified to provide airfield fire support services and are also personnel trained in First Aid. In emergencies, the Fire Chief reports to the OSC.

2.4.2 Medical ServicesThere are PDO doctors based in the Marmul and Fahud operating areas. All areas have clinics and trained nurses. At Nimr, Qarn Alam and Fahud contractor doctors in the Permanent Accommodation Centres (PAC’s) are available and co-opted to participate with PDO medical staff for emergency response.

Additionally, contractor camps , rigs, hoist and well test units sometimes have medics and clinics and these can be numbered among ‘available medical resources’.

NOTE: Details of medical resources available, doctors, nurses and ambulances may be referenced in PR-1243 - Emergency Procedures Part III, Contingency Plans Volume 13 Medical Emergencies

3 Emergency Response Contingency PlansThe following contingency plans shall be used in conjunction with the response procedures detailed in PR-1065 Emergency Response Documents Part II - Company Procedure.

The contingency plans cover the most likely scenarios that could be encountered by the Emergency Response Teams.

Additional ‘Check Lists’ to those detailed in PR-1065 have been provided to assist the LEBC and OSC in the management of the emergency.

3.1 Process Facilities and Pipeline EmergenciesThe process facilities and pipelines, excluding the wells below the Xmas Tree which are covered under PR-1287 Emergency Procedures Part III Contingency Plans, Vol. II Well Engineering Operations are considered as potentially high risk.

3.1.1 Firing a Gas LeakWARNING: Firing a gas leak shall only be considered an option if human life is threatened or there is a risk of an uncontrolled explosion.Firing a gas leak shall be considered if either of the situations stated in the Warning above are likely to occur. The benefit of such action is to reduce the risk of an uncontrolled explosion and to make the leak visible therefore identifying the area of danger.

When considering firing the leak the explosive effect of the ignition, on surrounding structures, equipment etc, and the radiation effect of the flame plume shall taken into account. To assist in the decision making computer programmes such as Fire Radiation Explosion and Dispersion (FRED) are available.

Firing a gas leak can be done provided the following are adhered to with the authorisation of the LEBC:

Use a rocket flare or equivalent with at least 150m range. (Obtainable via the LEBC). Refer to PR-1097 Use and Storage of Flare Cartridges and Guns.

Select a spot with good cover upwind of the leak and easy route for escape

Two men should approach the spot wearing SCBA with 150m lifelines

The intended ‘firing area’ shall be check for explosive atmosphere

When firing the flare aim for a level above the leak, not at the leak source. The mixture at this point shall usually be ‘to rich’ to sustain ignition

The two operatives shall be prepared for a possible ‘blast front’ and increase in temperature as the leak ignites, by keeping low to the ground

Once it is established that the leak is ignited the two operatives shall move to a safe area

3.1.2 Process Fire / Explosion (Generic)PDO process facilities, including pumping and booster stations shall be provided with firefighting and detection systems in accordance with SP-1075 HSE Specification - Fire and Explosion Risk Management (FERM).

On detection or notification of a fire / explosion situation the immediate emergency response after initial appraisal shall be:


Printed 27/04/23










Initiate an Emergency Shutdown (ESD) of the facility / equipment manually if not initiated automatically

Sound Fire Alarm if not already activated, and evacuate all non-essential personnel to designated ‘muster points’. Conduct muster check to ensure all personnel accounted for

Remove potential for escalation by in initiating a shutdown and depressurisation (if appropriate) of systems and equipment within the vicinity of the incident

NOTE: Only required if the primary action of ESD has not achieved the required system isolations.

Establish a fire boundary around the incident area to prevent further possible escalation through heat radiation or gas ingress.

Further action shall be to address the following check list.

ITEMS TO CHECK

ESD been activated either automatically or manually

Fire alarm has been activated and all non-essential personnel have been evacuated.

Automatic fire extinguishing systems activated (if provided) and is operational effectiveness confirmed

Gas testing is available and deployed, (including for H2S if necessary)

Emergency response personnel equipped with the correct PPE including Self Contained Breathing Sets (SCBA) if appropriate

All fuel sources (wells, flow lines etc.,) isolated where appropriate and adjacent equipment shutdown, isolated, depressurised and protected where necessary

Access to / from site controlled

Wind direction and weather conditions have been reviewed and site access instruction modified accordingly?

Search and Rescue (SAR) authorised

This may only be authorised by LEBC

3.1.3 Tank FireThe immediate emergency response to a Tank Fire shall be:

Sound Fire Alarm if not already activated, and evacuate all non-essential personnel to designated ‘muster points’. Conduct muster check to ensure all personnel accounted for

Isolate further inflow to / outflow from the tank

Provided there is no signs of structural damage to the tank start firefighting systems if not already initiated

Contain any spillage within the tank bund where possible

Apply boundary cooling to adjacent tanks and affected tank

Involve the Fire Service as soon as possible



Printed 27/04/23



ITEMS TO CHECK


Fire alarm has been activated and all non-essential personnel have been evacuated.

Automatic fire extinguishing systems activated (if provided) and is operational effectiveness confirmed


Personnel equipped with the correct PPE including Self Contained Breathing Sets (SCBA) if appropriate

Adjacent equipment shutdown, isolated, depressurised and protected where necessary

Tank inventory reduced

NOTE: Removing any water from the tank shall help prevent potential boil over.

Bunds are intact and capable of holding inventory should tank rupture

Bund drains are closed

Boundary cooling been established on adjacent tanks and equipment


Levels in adjacent tanks increased to minimise the risk of heat deformation. Only when it safe to do so.

Following a serious tank fire it shall be necessary to carry out a detailed inspection of adjacent equipment and effect repairs if necessary.

Careful inspection shall be required on the tank base pad to assess damage.

3.1.3.1 Floating Roof Tanks – Rim Seal FireRim seal fires are usually extinguished with the fixed firefighting systems provided at the tank top. Rim seal fires may escalate into a full surface roof fire, caused by the sinking of the roof.

3.1.3.2 Floating Roof Tanks – Roof Surface FireIf the rim seal fire escalates and the floating roof sinks, the roof surface will start burning. This type of fire is difficult to extinguish and the risk of escalation through "boil-over1" is significant.

1 Boil over in a tank occurs when heat from a fire converts the water in the bottom of the tank to steam. Water expands at 1700 times its volume displacing the burning oil held above it out of the tank. This phenomenon is particular to crude oil which in a surface fire has its light ends burnt off causing the subsequently denser oil to sink transferring heat downwards (at the rate of approximately 1 metre per hour) into the settled water.


Printed 27/04/23



3.1.4 Oil Tank RuptureBunds shall be provided around all hydrocarbon storage tanks to contain the contents of the tank in the event of a tank rupture. The design of the bund shall ensure it has the capacity to prevent spillage outside of the bund and catchments area.

A consequence of a tank rupture can be ignition of the vapours released as the product spills out into the bund. If ignition occurs then the emergency response shall be as detailed in 3.1.3 Tank Fire.

If no ignition has occurred the immediate emergency response shall be:

Isolate further inflow to / outflow from the tank

Contain any spillage within the tank bund where possible

Lay fire hoses and monitors to provide immediate firefighting capability in the event of an ignition and involve the Fire Service as soon as possible

Arrange for appropriate recovery equipment to remove spillage from the bund and catchment area i.e. vacuum tankers, pumps etc.

Arrange for de-bunkering of damaged tank


ITEMS TO CHECK


Spillage contained and leak from rupture stopped / reduced

Remove any ignition sources and stop any hot work in the vicinity


Personnel equipped with the correct PPE including Self Contained Breathing Sets (SCBA) if appropriate

Inventory in affected tank reduced.

Bunds are intact and capable of holding inventory should tank rupture

Bund drains are closed

Tank inventory reduced


Weather condition have been considered in the emergency response plan

3.1.5 Oil Pipeline or Flowline FailureDetails of the Emergency Response for the Main Oil Line (MOL) are to be found in PR-1067 Emergency Response Documents Part III, Contingency Plan Volume 4 Main Oil Line.

The following Emergency Response steps apply to pipelines, other than those managed by MOL and flowlines from the wells to the gathering stations.


Printed 27/04/23






3.1.5.1 Locate The LeakWhere the coordinates of the leak are known proceed to 3.1.5.2.

Where the coordinates of the leak are unknown it may be necessary to:

Identify the location of the leak using aerial reconnaissance

Or Dispatch parties from either end of the suspected pipeline / flowline to locate

the leak. Instruct them to drive along the Right of Way (RoW) noting distance travelled and direction from known reference points.

CAUTION: When driving into the wind or approaching any low areas in the proximity of the leak, care shall be taken in case pockets of gas are encountered. Portable gas detectors should be carried to monitor the atmosphere in the vehicle.When the location of the leak is identified the LEBC shall dispatch two equipped vehicles and crews to the BSV’s located either side of the identified leak. Each crew should be equipped with:

Radio

Hydraulic power packs [Amplitorque]

BA sets

Portable fire extinguisher

3.1.5.2 Safeguard The AreaBefore any work is undertaken gas testing shall be carried out.

If the presence of H2S is detected the area shall be isolated and a windsock installed. The results of the gas testing shall determine how the site access shall be controlled. Site access shall be strictly controlled and policed and access only allowed in accordance with PR-1078 - Hydrogen Sulphide Management Procedure. Unfavourable wind conditions may result in the area considered hazardous to life, becoming larger than the immediate operation location2.

Care should be taken not to ignite the leak, however if it is already ignited, no attempt should be made to extinguish the flame. All ignition sources shall be shutdown or isolated.

WARNING: If a gas escape from a leak is in danger of being ignited, evacuate the area and depressurise the line at the well head or manifold.Risk to third parties and the environment should be evaluated by the LECC Team with input from the OSC and reference to pipeline sensitivity maps.

3.1.5.3 Isolate The Pipeline / FlowlineIn the case of an oil pipeline the pumps shall be shutdown. Isolation of the pipeline block valves shall require the use of the hydraulic power pack. This shall be undertaken by the crews dispatched by the LEBC.

2 A high Gas Oil Ratio well may liberate sufficient gas from a leaking flow line to be a major hazard.Page 17 PR-1066 – Emergency Response Document Part III

Contingency Plan Volume III - Production OperationsPrinted 27/04/23




Flowlines shall be isolated at the wellhead and the gathering station manifold Isolate leaking flow lines by shutting in the well at the wellhead and at the manifold including any gas lift.

CAUTION: Be aware that differences in elevation may leave sections of flowline partially pressurised even with both ends completely depressurised

3.1.5.4 Contain the SpillThe OSC shall:

Assess the approximate volume of the oil spill. The primary focus shall be on the ‘spill rate’, then the ‘size’ and finally the extent of the ‘spill’.

Identify the oil spill containment / cleanup equipment required. Refer to PR-1084 Oil Spills Clean Up and Ground Restoration Procedure

Agree the access for oil spill equipment and vehicles

Assess the environmental sensitivity of the area3 – wadis, potable water sources etc.

NOTE: It may be necessary to construct diversion bunds to route the oil away from sensitive areas; wadis, villages, sources of ignition etc.

Mobilise oil spill equipment and manpower – vacuum trucks, earthmovers, and sandbags.

Organise repair team and equipment – the necessary clamps and other equipment should be sourced and delivered to the site.

3.1.5.5 Repair the Failure and Clean Up SiteThe Construction Engineering Coordinator assisted by pipeline operations section shall organise the construction repair crew.

The OSC shall hand over to the Recovery Team once the ‘emergency’ has been effectively dealt with and the Emergency Response Teams have been ‘stood down’.

The Recovery Team shall authorise all required excavations in compliance to PTW requirements. Free surface oil shall be removed before any excavation work is commenced. The use of vacuum trucks (the simplest method) shall require careful planning and execution to ensure that ignition sources are not introduced where there could be a possible explosive mixture.

The disposal of the recovered oil4 shall be in accordance with SP-1009 - Waste Management.

The repair of the leak shall be undertaken in accordance with GU-379 Pipeline Emergency Repair Manual .

Pipeline repair materials (Emergency Stock) are kept in stock at various PDO interior locations and MAF.

3 If any wadi or aquifer has been contaminated, a thorough follow up should be made to avoid any Third Party Reputation issues.4 If required a holding pit may be excavated at a convenient location for temporary holding of the spillage.Page 18 PR-1066 – Emergency Response Document Part III










3.1.6 Gas Pipeline FailureDetails of the Emergency Response for the South Oman Gas Line (SOGL) and the Government Gas System are to be found in PR-1275 Emergency Procedure Part III, Contingency Plans Volume 15 South Oman Gas Line and PR-1246 Emergency Procedure Part III, Contingency Plans Volume 14 Government Gas System respectively.

Gas pipeline failures will normally appear as a leak with the gas disturbing the surface soil within the corridor of a buried line. Most leaks are usually identified from visual observation on the ground or the noise of escaping gas.

3.1.6.1 Locate The LeakWhere the coordinates of the leak are known proceed to 3.1.6.2.

Where the coordinates of the leak are unknown it may be necessary to:

Identify the location of the leak using aerial reconnaissance (Major Leak)

Or The LEBC shall dispatch two equipped vehicles and crews to the BSV’s located

either side of the identified leak. Each crew should be equipped with:

o Radio

o Hydraulic power packs [Amplitorque]

o BA sets

o Portable fire extinguisher

The crews shall drive from either end of the suspected pipeline to locate the leak, driving along the Right of Way (RoW) noting distance travelled and direction from known reference points.

CAUTION: When driving into the wind or approaching any low areas in the proximity of the leak, care shall be taken in case pockets of gas are encountered. Portable gas detectors should be carried to monitor the atmosphere in the vehicle.Where possible the team approaching from downwind should drive a parallel route observing the pipeline windrow from a safe distance. A cross wind should be treated with equal consideration.

3.1.6.2 Safeguard The AreaGas testing must be carried out and if H2S is likely the area must be cordoned off and a windsock installed. Results of gas testing should determine extent of site access control, road blocks etc. Site access must be strictly controlled and policed, with extra precautions implemented in the event of H2S presence.

CAUTION: Unfavourable wind conditions may result in the hazardous area becoming larger than the immediate operational location.If the gas escape from the leak is in danger of being ignited, evacuate the area. All ignition sources must be shutdown and isolated.

Risk to third party(s) and the environment should be evaluated with input from the OSC reports and pipeline sensitivity maps.

If gas cloud presents an immediate danger – consider firing the leak.


Printed 27/04/23







If leak is ignited, do not attempt to extinguish it unless the flame threatens other facilities.

3.1.6.3 Isolate the Pipeline / Flow LineIsolating a leaking pipeline will require amplitorque units will be required to operate pipeline block valves. Production operators should be mobilised to isolate the relevant block valves and ESD.

When the section is isolated commence blowing down the line. Cathodic protection on the line should also be isolated.

3.1.6.4 Repair The LeakThe construction repair crew will be organised by Construction Engineering Coordinator assisted by Pipeline Engineering.

Excavations shall be undertaken only on approval of the OSC and after an Excavation Certificate has been completed. The immediate area around the leak shall be ‘damped down’ with a water spray to reduce the risk of igniting residual gas.

Guidance should be taken from GU-379 – Pipeline Emergency Repair Manual.

NOTE: Pipeline repair materials (Emergency Stock) are kept in stock at various interior PDO locations and MAF.

Repair will normally require a total depressurisation of the line and rigging up of temporary blowdown facilities. If blowing down the line, be aware of the risks of static electricity and freezing of the blowdown valve.

On an extended repair it will be necessary to provide facilities for the emergency response personnel on site. Toilet and washing facilities and possibly one of the portable telecoms trailers could be sent to the site. These must be located well away from the danger area and allow for changes in wind direction.


ITEMS TO CHECK

Flow of gas is stopped

Emergency Services are standing by

Weather forecast and wind directions

Gas testers are available and deployed

Personnel are wearing appropriate PPE. SCBA if required

Ignition sources shutdown and isolated

BA Cascade unit is mobilised to site

Clamps mobilised to site

Water trucks mobilised to site for water spray, dampening down gas cloud

Line owner is notified and pipeline specialists mobilised


Printed 27/04/23




3.1.7 Wellhead Leak (Generic)A wellhead leak is more likely to occur during well services activities, rig re-entry or on other well pad maintenance.

The immediate response shall be to ‘Close-in’ the well and then clean-up the spill. If wellhead cannot be killed or closed in refer to the blow-out contingency plan detailed in PR-1287 Emergency Procedures Part III Contingency Plans, Vol. II Well Engineering Operations.

ITEMS TO CHECK

Wellhead Master, Swab and / or Wing valves and associated flow lines location valve are closed

Nearby wells are shut in and flow lines depressurised. Manifolds, gathering stations and other facilities are shut down, isolated and protected where necessary

Gas testing is available and deployed (and windsock)

Personnel are wearing appropriate PPE. SCBA if required

Site is secure and access is controlled

Weather conditions have been considered for their affect on the spill and response

Vacuum trucks, pumps and disposal facilities are available

3.1.8 Annulus Flow Out

3.1.8.1 BackgroundExperience of flow outs to date has shown clearly that delay in response may result in escalation of the flow and/or deterioration of the location soil conditions.

The "Yibal Annulus Flow out Emergency Response Plan" has been developed to ensure a timely response to such an emergency, in which general well control procedures are outlined, departmental areas of responsibility are defined and individuals within the PDO organisation are allocated tasks.

In the best case the "flow out" will be in the form of a slowly filling cellar, in the worst case the "flow out" will be in the form of a full cellar and flooding location. This plan caters for the worst case scenario.

3.1.8.2 ProcedureIn general, operations to control an annulus "Flow out" can be broken down into five (5) phases, these are:

Phase 1 - Identification of annulus flow

Phase 2 - Initial emergency response measures

Phase 3 - Initial steps to control "Flow out"

Phase 4 - Flow out control and well kill operations

Phase 5 - Post well-kill operations to fully secure well

Each of the five (5) phases covered below identifies operational steps, actions / equipment required and action parties who will be involved.


Printed 27/04/23





Phase 1 - Identification Of Uncontrolled Annulus Flow Out

Single Point Responsible Person: Production Coordinator as LEBCOperations personnel in the field are the most likely to detect annulus ‘flow out’ and shall report back to the Production Supervisor who shall then inform the Production Coordinator. Having been informed the Production Coordinator shall:

Dispatch an OSC to the location and verify the annulus ‘flow out’ (either into or outside the cellar)

Establish (using portable detectors) whether H2S and / or Hydrocarbon gases are being produced

CAUTION: Correct PPE and SCBA shall be worn when investigating gas releases.

Estimate the flow rate of annulus flow out

Assign well services engineer and construction engineer

When dealing with chemical spillage / leakage considerations shall include:

Will the chemical cause injury if contacted by personnel?

Are the vapours explosive or flammable when mixed with air?

Is the chemical corrosive?

When assessing the chemical spillage / leakage:

Refer to the Material Specification Data Sheet (MSDS); the Safe Handling of Chemical Card (SHOC); and / or Toxic Material Manual for correct procedure to deal with incident

Approximate the volume of the chemical released

Is containment effective

Is the area affected accessible to clean up equipment / vehicles

How environmentally sensitivity is the spill / leakage area i.e. wadis, potable water sources etc

Having considered the above mobilise spill cleanup in the prescribed manner.

For personnel affected by the chemical either by ingress or contact follow the instruction on the MSDS or SHOC and seek medical assistance immediately.

CAUTION: Do not undertake any first aid until the properties of the chemical are known.Confirm that following are in place or being actioned:

Printed 27/04/23



3.2.4 Serious Crime / Acts of Terrorism Serious crime or acts of terrorism in the context of this procedure includes any incident warranting immediate notification to the ROP.

In such cases, the LEBC should authorise the restraint of the suspected perpetrators(s), taking any reasonable measures of restraint to safeguard the safety of personnel and property on site.

The following guidelines should be applied:

The LEBC is responsible for ensuring the well being and safety of any suspected perpetrator(s) when under protective custody or restraint. If a man is under restraint or in protective custody. A continuous watch hall be maintained to ensure the suspect(s) does not cause injury to themselves or others. These precautions shall be maintained until the ROP assume control of the situation

The ROP shall assume responsibility for the situation and discharge the LEBC of his / her responsibility. This action could involve for example:

ROP coming to site to conduct investigations or to escort suspect (s) to coast

ROP receiving a restrained suspect(s)

ROP cautioning/searching a suspect(s)

Where a criminal act has been observed or a complaint received the LEBC shall:

Conduct or organise a private interview plaintiff and obtain all relevant information of the criminal act

Obtain names of suspects and any other relevant witnesses

Contact Corporate Security and Emergency Response Manager, submit all available information and request assistance

Notify Line Supervisor and Duty Manager

In cases of violence, if the suspect is not already under restraint, restrain and detain in custody. This shall be done even if the suspect is no longer violent to protect the suspect or other personnel. Persons suspected of being under the influence of drugs or alcohol shall be examined by medical staff as soon as possible. Allow the medical staff to diagnose the cause of the abnormal behaviour rather than assume, the cause may not be related to either drugs or alcohol but some other complaint

A suitable room shall be prepared to interview or detain the suspect(s)

Make ready a stretcher or other suitable restraint if necessary

Where required establish a ‘crime scene’. Cordon off area, take photographs and maintain entry control. Ensure nothing is touched or moved. Hand over the crime scene to the ROP or any other investigative body appointed by the company.


Printed 27/04/23



3.2.5 Bomb ThreatIn the event of a bomb threat or the discovery of a suspect package / item which may be considered a threat to the safety of the installation the LEBC shall:

Notify ROP of situation and request assistance

Establish a secure communication network

Consult Duty Director and Corporate Security and Emergency Response Manager to determine if any threat is considered genuine.

Shut down operations if advised by the ROP

Sound the general alarm if the threat is considered genuine and enforce a radio silence (including mobile telephones) to reduce the risk of possible detonation.

WARNING: Explosive devices can be triggered by radio signals. Inform Air Operations of need for radio silence asking them to relay instruction

to all aircraft in area

Determine method(s) of evacuation and initiate evacuation of non-essential personnel. Consider evacuating all personnel until the search team arrive. Key personnel should be retained at site to assist any military search teams.

Appoint key personnel to develop a search plan and assist any specialist military search team brought in to conduct the search. Large scale diagrams of facilities should be made available to assist in the search planning. Priority will be given to searching offices and non-process areas so that personnel can be accommodated in secure locations while the remainder of the installation is searched

If a device is found the area shall be evacuate and cordoned off to at least 1000m and the disposal left to the military

If the search does not reveal any devices wait until after any deadline has passed plus any time considered necessary for safety before returning the operations to Normal Status

3.2.6 Personnel Missing or Overdue in the InteriorThis sub-section details the action to be taken when personnel (single or multiple) are reported missing or overdue in the interior.

3.2.6.1 Initial ReportingThe key parties for the initial reporting are the ‘journey manager’ and ‘the line supervisor’. However anyone who suspects personnel are missing or overdue should make it known to their line manager / supervisor

The journey manager is to confirm missing personnel no later than two hours after the latest time of arrival (LTA) time of arrival

If personnel do not show up at work, or disappears during working hours, the line supervisor shall raise the alarm no later than two hours after the personnel were reported missing or overdue

Confirmation Of Missing Personnel

Obtain a copy of the Journey Plan and confirm the plan

Confirm from the departure point that the journey actually started and the personnel are not still at the location.

Check that the personnel have not arrived and failed to check with the journey planner or office / control room

If the journey included stops at other locations confirm that the personnel actually left that location

In addition the main points above the following can be used to eliminate possibilities.

Did personnel actually depart?

Did the journey plan allow sufficient time for the journey?

Check the “Vehicle Tracking System” output – (vehicles in South only).

Could there be a delay due to circumstances outside of driver’s control, such as bad weather, road diversions, and fatigue?

Were any stops planned and were these stops made?

Was the journey plan explicit or could the destination have been misinterpreted i.e. personnel at wrong location?

Have personnel arrived at destination and omitted to report in?

Contact PDO and Contractor worksites and camps, check with the Line Supervisor

Check at the pool car station

Check with colleagues and friends

Check recreational facilities

Check canteen facilities

Check rest rooms

Check prayer rooms

Could personnel be involved in an accident or breakdown?

Contact ALL ROP stations and check for reported road accidents

Contact hospitals / clinics


Printed 27/04/23



Were personnel planned to arrive by scheduled flight?

Contact airstrips

Check the flight manifests

Were personnel travelling from home to destination?

Check home addresses

Develop a Search Plan for the entire 'Search Area' within the 'Survival Period'

Action the Search Plan

Mobilise search teams

Estimate 'Survival Period'

To be able to plan a search strategy, the survival chances of the personnel should to be evaluated. Gather relevant information and then obtain advice on survival period from a qualified doctor. Information required to estimate survival period of the personnel:

NOTE: For each of these items: If no information is available, then assume the worst. Assume that the man must be found within 24 hours.

Was a Desert Survival Kit provided in the vehicle or with the personnel?

Was food was carried

How much and what kind of food do they have

What is the current exposure time?

Are personnel familiar with living in the desert or familiar with desert survival techniques?

Does any medical conditions exist which may affect the chances of survival

6 Do not limit the Search Area to the immediate vicinity of the planned route or the last known location. Once people get disoriented, they may drive considerable distance before accepting they are lost. They may have passed their destination. Also, they may have tried to return to the point of origin and have passed it, ending up in the opposite direction from the destination.Page 32 PR-1066 – Emergency Response Document Part III




Developing A Search Plan

The Search Plan shall be designed to cover the entire Search Area within the Survival Period. In developing the plan the following shall be considered.

Can the Search Area be covered by road vehicles only? If not, immediately put RAFO SAR and Oman Air on standby.

Identify a trigger when you will escalate the search to include Air Searches

Be aware that personnel may still be moving and may move from an un-searched area into a searched area. Minimise the chance of this happening by partially overlapping the search areas

Broadcast radio messages every 30 minutes with details of the missing vehicle and personnel and request all vehicles to be on the alert and report any sightings

Consider weather conditions and weather forecast when compiling the search plan

Use the following to develop the Search Plan:

NOTE: Divide the Search Area in sections and prioritise the areas where the individual is most likely to be found to be searched first.

1. Personnel Missing without a Vehicle

Start a search using the last known location as starting point, and going out in a continuously widening circle or square

If the lost man is in the desert on foot, then Road and Off-road Searches with vehicles may suffice to cover the entire Search Area within the Survival Period

2. Personnel Missing with a Vehicle and a Journey Plan

Concentrate the initial search on the planned route using Road Search Vehicles

Use the last known location as a starting point

Extend the search area to alternative routes which may have been taken

Using Off Road Search Vehicles define corridors to be searched on either side of possible routes

Extend this area to the entire Search Area

Consider inclusion of Air Search

3. Personnel Missing with a vehicle but without a Journey Plan, and (potentially) Off-Road

Initiate the Search in square pattern around the last known position. (See Search Patterns)

Extend the Search from the last known location outwards

Depending on the size of the Search Area, include Air Search

4. Personnel Missing but Equipped with a Distress Radio Beacon

If a Distress Radio Beacon was carried, this can best be picked up by aircraft. Initiate an Air Search immediately

Identify personnel for search parties and mobilise vehicles

Brief each of the search parties on the overall search plan. Provide coordinates for Global Positioning Systems (GPS)

Brief each of the search parties on their specific area to be searched


Printed 27/04/23



NOTE: This procedure has been written specifically for searches during daylight. Searches at night can have certain benefits. Lights and fires will be visible over large distances and an air search could cover larger areas at night than during daylight hours. However, the following restrictions should be considered before embarking on evening or night searches.

Night Time Searches

In darkness from an aircraft it will be extremely difficult to positively identify the source of a light or fire. Accurate position fixing equipment will be essential.

Vehicle searches at night should only be carried out if a location is known where the personnel are likely to be found and when there is indication that there is a critical medical condition existing.

Vehicle searches in darkness shall be limited to road searches only, and only on roads which are familiar to the driver of the search vehicle. For night driving the PDO night driving policy shall be adhered to and special permission obtained.

As a general rule no vehicle searches should take place off-road at night.

Areas searched during the night cannot be confirmed to have been properly searched and will need to be searched again during daylight.

Implementing The Search Plan

The following personnel shall be considered eligible to carry out searches.

PDO and Contractor personnel for Road Searches

PDO and Contractor personnel for off-road searches only if familiar and equipped for off road travel. Typically well equipped personnel for such off road searches are:

Seismic Crews

Survey Operations Support Personnel

Royal Air Force of Oman, Search and Rescue services (RAFO SAR) for Air Search (Contact through CECC and Ministry of Environment and Climatic Affairs (MECA))

PDO contracted Aviation Services

At request of the LEBC and with notification to the Duty Director:

Request PDO air operations to contact and liaise with RAFO SAR in Search and Rescue operations

Request PDO air operations to make available OAS Aircraft for search operations

Road Searches

The distance which can be covered by a Road Search party is estimated at 40 km/hr, with the width of searched area up to 2 km on either side of the road in flat terrain. In undulating terrain or hills, it must be assumed that the area along the road cannot be properly searched from the road, and no benefit should be taken for it. The area beside the road still has to be searched by Off-Road parties, or from the Air.

Briefing for Road Search Parties:

Provide Search Party with detailed route / area to be covered

Search vehicles should stick to the search plan, and agree deviation from the plan with the LEBC


Printed 27/04/23



Search parties are to stop every hour at an elevated location, leave the vehicle and search the horizon for about 10 minutes. During this period the radio should be carefully monitored to receive transmissions by the lost party

After each hourly stop the search parties must log their location and the searched area on their Search Log (see Appendix) and communicate this to the LECC

Search parties will return to base before darkness

Assume that the search party may be diverted a long way in any direction during the search. Ensure that sufficient Fuel and Water / Food Supplies are taken

Items required by Road Search Parties

- Fully equipped 4-wheel drive vehicle

- 2 or ideally 3 People, sharing the following skills between them

- Experienced Driver / Familiar with Area / Familiar with reading Maps, Compass GPS (if carried) and First Aid

- Reporting (use road search reporting sheets in Appendix B)

- Road maps. Use the same maps as the ones used in the LECC

- Radio which covers at least the whole search area

- Sufficient Fuel; assume the party may be diverted a long way during the search

- Sufficient water for search party AND for the lost party if found (10 litres/person)

- Dehydration salts for the lost party (note may be in first aid kit)

- Sufficient food for the search party AND for the lost party if found

- First Aid Kit

- Binoculars

- Search Log Sheets.

Off-Road Searches

All items under Road Search are applicable to the Off-Road Searches. In addition the following shall apply.

At least one of the people in an Off-road Search party shall be fully familiar and experienced with Off-Road driving and off-road navigation.

The vehicles used shall be fully equipped for off-road driving. In addition to the requirements for road search vehicles they shall carry:

GPS receiver, Compass

Desert Survival Kit

Radio's (SJB or 40 MHz)

Vehicles and experienced personnel for Off-Road Driving are available in:

Seismic crews and Survey operation support personnel

Local population - Oryx Reserve Desert Rangers (Contact Local Wail’s via HR or ROP).

The distance which can be covered by an Off-Road Searching party is estimated at 20 km / hr, with the width of searched area up to 2 km on either side in flat terrain. In undulating terrain or hills, it must be assumed that the area beside the route has not


Printed 27/04/23



been properly searched, and no benefit should be taken for it. The area beside the route still has to be searched either by ground or from the Air.


Printed 27/04/23



Air Searches

Air Searches are to be initiated when:

The 'Search Area' is too large to fully cover within the Survival Period with vehicle searches only. In this case, involve aircraft at an early stage.

The lost party is likely to have a radio beacon, which can easily be picked up by aircraft

When time has become critical and the lost party MUST be found very quickly to prevent fatalities.

Air searches can be carried out by the Royal Air Force of Oman - Search and Rescue Service (RAFO SAR) or by Oman Air. It is recommended that if an Air Search is needed, to request the RAFO to participate in the Search and Rescue operations from the start. They are the specialists in the field and have the best equipment available for Search and Rescue Operations. Helicopters and small planes are better suited for air searches.

Royal Air Force of Oman, Search and Rescue (RAFO SAR)

Although mainly in existence to cover the own RAFO flying operations, the SAR will assist in searches requested by third parties.

The RAFO RCC (Rescue Co-ordination Centre) is located in RAFO HQ at Seeb, with Rescue Sub Centres (RSC's) in Seeb, Masirah, Salalah and Khasab.

RAFO can also call on aircraft from ROPDPA (Royal Oman Police Directorate of Police Aviation) and RF (Royal Flight) for assistance.

Detailed information about the Search and Rescue Service from the RAFO is available in the Sultanate of Oman Search and Rescue Plan, a controlled copy of which is held by logistics department (UWLO).

Oman Air

Oman Air operate jet (737) aircraft for PDO. One or more of these can be made available to carry out air searches. Experience has shown that effective use can be made of these planes in search operations. The following limitations need to be taken into consideration in Air Searches by OAS.

Pilots may be limited by their maximum flying time.

As many people as possible should be in the plane to assist in the search.

An experienced and full time 'map reader' need to be in the plane to ensure the searched area is indeed fully covered. Seismic survey teams have such people available in the Interior.

Allow sufficient overlap between search sweeps.

Aircraft cannot fly much slower than about 150 km/hr, which is regarded as quite fast to effectively carry out a search.

Aerial Search Patterns

Many Search patterns have recognised advantages and disadvantages. The three most relevant patterns are briefly described in the Appendix 1.


Printed 27/04/23



3.2.7 Road Traffic Accident (RTA's)PDO shall provide emergency services within the concession areas for RTA involving PDO personnel, contractors or third parties.

This social condition may not necessarily be confined to the large commercial or municipal centres but can equally occur in or near oil and gas facilities located in the interior.

In the event of such occurring the LEBC or Senior Station Operator will consider the following as paramount before carrying out any further actions;

Protection of Life

Protection of the Environment

Protection of Property

As soon as possible or in conjunction with achieving the above the Royal Oman Police and the CECC (Duty Director) shall be informed.

3.4.1 Assess the SituationThe LEBC shall require to assess the incident and the potential of violence to personnel, or damage to plant and equipment before planning further action such as ‘lock-out’ or evacuation. Considerations will be, but not limited to:

Type of incident i.e. protest, riot etc.;

Size of crowd i.e. small local or large with people from outside the area;

Attitude of crowd i.e. hostile or non-hostile;

Adverse reaction to PDO personnel by the gathering;

Lack of ROP personnel at the scene;

4 Severe Weather Contingency Plan

4.1 Weather ForecastsWeather conditions affecting PDO’s operations are monitored continuously. Generally adverse weather patterns can be predicted and the necessary steps taken to safeguard personnel and operations.

Adverse weather warnings shall be displayed in the ‘News List’ on the PDO Home Page.

The Directorate General of Civil Aviation and Meteorology can be accessed to obtain weather updates or Corporate Emergency response Coordinator may also be contacted to provide weather updates if required.

Any significant change in wind conditions, rain, wadi water levels, visibility (sand storms) or other factors should prompt a re-check of up-to-date forecasts. Operators of outlying facilities and colleagues in other Areas should also be consulted.

4.2 Safe Refuge Focal Points If severe weather is expected, the Safe Refuge Focal Points (Area Services

Supervisor and / or HSE Adviser) should be alerted.

The Safe Refuge Focal Points are responsible for broadcasting severe weather warnings to all affected PDO and Contractor operations in the Area.

Each area shall prepare a schedule of Safe Refuges to which personnel may be evacuated in the case of severe weather. This register shall be kept up to date and a copy sent to Corporate Security and Emergency Response Management Team (UIC)

Safe Refuge Focal Points (Area Services Supervisor and / or HSE Adviser) are responsible for knowing / identifying evacuation routes to the Safe Refuges and for communicating these to the appropriate personnel. Each Area should prepare local evacuation procedures for this contingency

Catering staff should fill water canisters and ensure these are stored in a Safe Refuge and are available for transport to other refuges

PDO vehicles with radios should be identified according to the Safe Refuge Schedule

The Safe Refuge Focal Points shall report to the LECC. As soon as possible, contact shall be established with accommodation not identified as Safe Refuges and the number and location of affected personnel shall be reported to the LECC

Safe Refuge Focal Points shall instruct affected personnel to evacuate to an identified Safe Refuge by a pre-planned route

The Safe Refuge Focal Points shall make contact with the Safe Refuges and a Leader shall be appointed in each. All Safe Refuges shall report regularly the number and Company of personnel who have arrived

When the situation has been properly established, the LEBC and Safe Refuge Focal Points shall assess whether any number of personnel should be evacuated from the Area to another Area or the coast

Any requests from the Safe Refuges for medical assistance shall be relayed to the LECC


Printed 27/04/23


http://www.met.gov.om/eindex.php3


The Leaders of the Safe Refuges are responsible for reporting any camp damage to the LECC. They shall also assess the damage and control any further deterioration (e.g. isolate electricity supplies)

4.3 Communications and SupportThe LEBC is responsible for informing other Areas of the situation and request any support that may be required such as evacuation of personnel without accommodation

When the emergency situation is over the LEBC shall confirm status with all Safe Refuges and any other operations in the Area, in particular determining whether further support is required

4.4 RecoveryRecovery actions include inspection of all camps and production stations / manifolds / pump stations, as well as accommodation and workshop areas. A local camp inspection plan should be in place for this purpose

Particular attention shall be given to a thorough inspection of the airstrips. On completion of this inspection, Air Traffic Control shall be informed of the status

Telecoms shall perform a full communications test in order to identify any damage. A local procedure should be in place for this

Clear up affected areas and provide safe access and egress

4.5 Severe Weather Check ListsThe check list should be referenced in the event of severe weather warnings:

ITEMS TO CHECK Have notifications been sent of the severe weather warning?

i.e. to drilling and exploration rigs and camps, seismic crews and camps, well servicing crews, logistics, construction and maintenance crew camps

Has camp inspection been initiated to ensure that all loose items are secured, windows and doors closed, sand bagging to prevent flooding of buildings etc?

If required has extra support for high structures like telecomm towers been provided?

Has evacuation been considered and contingency plans drawn up if required?

Has warning been sent to all staff restricting travel outside of camp / installation boundaries?

Has warning been broadcasted to all vehicles?

Have Journey Managers stopped issuing journey plans and reported all outstanding / uncompleted journeys?

Ensure that these journeys have been informed of the severe weather warning

Have ROP been instructed to restrict traffic leaving the camp, unless sanctioned by LEBC?


Printed 27/04/23



ITEMS TO CHECK

Has Air Ops flight plans been confirmed?

When will flying operations cease and what time will the last flight be out of your area prior to the onset of severe weather

Are all other areas aware of the severe weather warning and in receipt of your contingency plans?

Has the contingency for shut down of operations been considered?Once the severe weather has abated check:

ITEMS TO CHECK Are all personnel are accounted for (check muster)?

Is there damage evident to structures and equipment?

Is the airstrip functional?

5.3 Air OperationsThe use of aircraft for search operations is detailed in 3.2.6 the LEBC requires being aware of the legal implications and issues. These are presented in more detail in;

PR-1802 - PDO Fahud Emergency Plan

PR-1805 - PDO MARMUL Emergency Plan

PR-1808 - PDO Qarn Alam Emergency Plan

5.3.1 Aerial MedevacA “Medevac” is an “Unscheduled flight for the emergency evacuation of a sick or injured person(s)” where the person(s) require urgent medical attention at a hospital.

Emergency flights such as medevac can be authorised by an LEBC, a PDO Doctor, the Duty Director or the Chief Medical Officer.

Medevac flights are mobilised by calling 24675555 and stating the requirement. Flights may be mobilised from Muscat or diverted within the interior.

Considerations when mobilising a medevac flight are as follows:

Crash Tender - If the medevac is required as a result of an ongoing emergency, the area crash tender or a crash tender from an adjacent area must be made available to cover the landing of the flight. The crash tender must be manned by a team of five (5) trained full time fire officers.

Number of Casualties - The maximum number of stretchers which may physically be carried on a jet (737) is six (6). Each stretcher requires the area occupied by six seats in order to secure the stretcher in compliance with aircraft certification. If medical staff are required to accompany each serious casualty, it will be necessary to reduce the number of stretcher cases carried on any


Printed 27/04/23














single flight to four. Combinations of stretcher cases and walking injured are permissible on the same flight provided the walking injured may be safely secured in their seats.

Requirement for Medical Accompaniment - In principle a doctor or nurse should always accompany medevac cases. If the medevac is being mobilised from Seeb, consideration should be given to mobilising medical support from MAF with the medevac aircraft.

Location of aerial stretchers - There are six (6) stretchers approved for use on jet (737) aircraft available within the PDO operation. Two stretchers are situated at each of Seeb (hanger), Fahud (clinic), and Marmul (clinic). Non-certified stretchers may not be used on board the jet (737).

Refuelling of the Aircraft - Aircraft diverted within the interior may require refuelling in order to comply with aviation authority requirements. PDO airports at Fahud, Marmul and Qarn Alam have facilities to refuel.

Offloading of passengers - It may be necessary to offload passengers already on a ‘commandeered flight’. Provision of accommodation or placement on alternate flights will need to be addressed.

Night flights - Night flights are permitted in emergencies to airstrips equipped with permanent or portable lighting which is within DGCAM certification requirements.

5.3.2 Usage of Non-PDO FlightsUsage of non-PDO flights for any of PDO's activities must be authorised by the Duty Director. The ROP have helicopters which are equipped for medevac flights. These can be mobilised by calling 24675555 and stating the requirement.

Aircraft Track


Appendix 1 – Aerial Search Patterns

Expanding Square SearchIn this technique the aircraft starts its search at the last known location of the lost party and flies a square pattern with ever increasing concentric squares. This technique can be used if there is a clear 'last known position' and if the search area is comparatively small. This pattern is difficult to fly and success depends highly on continuous and accurate navigation. GPS navigation would be of major benefit. To ensure full coverage the aircraft may have to fly exactly the same pattern again, but now in opposite direction.

Track Crawl SearchThis technique is specifically useful when the Search Area stretches along a road or wadi system. The aircraft searches in parallels on either side of the road/track. After flying for a determined length of time in one direction, it reverses to scan the opposite direction.

Block / Creeping Line SearchThis technique is best to cover a large Search Area, or when more than one aircraft are being used. The Search Area is divided into blocks, each of which is to be searched by an Aircraft. The Aircraft starts in one corner of the block and follows parallels from one side of the block to the other until the entire block has been searched. Ideally the flight tracks are to be towards and away from the sun so that reflections of the sunlight will be most visible


Printed 27/04/23



Area Coverage by Air SearchesThe ideal flying height for search planes varies from 500 to 2000 ft, depending on weather circumstances and meteorological visibility.

The sweep width, which is the width which can be reliably covered on each side of the plane, varies from 1 to 5 km, depending on flying height, meteorological visibility, flying speed and the availability of binoculars.

The track spacing shall never exceed twice the sweep width.
