1.0 Introduction

This report documents the biennial hazard identification and risk assessment (HIRA) Client

conducts of its non-hazardous oil and gas waste disposal facility in USA. The HIRA is

performed in order to:

Identify worksite hazards and conditions;

Evaluate the adequacy of safety programs and practices;

Determine exposure levels for site physical, chemical and radioactive hazards;

Quantify risk factors for specific hazards; and

Provide insight for improvements.

2.0 Methodology

The HIRA incorporates various desktop reviews, site inspections, interviews, industrial

hygiene and hazard surveys, and analysis. More specifically, the HIRA includes:

Review of currently handled materials, chemicals and wastes;

Review and compilation of site processes, such as waste offloading, vehicle washout, hot work, etc;

Site monitoring of industrial hygiene and/or exposure hazards such as benzene, volatile organic compounds, noise, hydrogen sulfide, carbon monoxide, radiation, and explosive conditions;

Review of existing safety programs, procedures, policies, and records;

Site inspection and work observations

Analysis of safety metrics and comparison to industry averages;

Review of historical incidents and injuries;

Subjective evaluation of the safety compliance status;

Quantitative risk analysis of appropriate process, procedures and/or hazards;

Evaluation of PPE adequacy; and

Prioritized recommendations for safety improvements.

10.0 PPE Assessment

11.1 Primary Hazards

Periodic assessment of PPE selection and adequacy are required by OSHA. At the CLIENT

facility in USA, the main materials or chemicals that PPE must protect against include:

Completion & work over fluids (corrosive or reactive in nature)

NORM – radiation exposure

Sharp and flying objects

Overhead and moving objects

Heavy items, equipment operations

Wet, windy or icy conditions

11.2 Radiation Exposures

CLIENT performed radiation exposure for approximately eight (8) years, during which no

worker approached the level at which annual monitoring is required. As a result, external

beta-gamma dosimetry monitoring was discontinued. As part of the NORM survey

described in section 5.0 of this report, gamma radiation levels were measured, to ensure

that levels are not significantly different than during the period of dosimetry monitoring.

They are not. Per Texas Department of State Health Services requirements, exposure

monitoring records have been maintained and are available for workers. Below is an

example of one exposure report.

11.3 Assessment

Based on the hazards present and the exposure scenarios, the M. B. Environmental Services

PPE policy and requirements is satisfactory.

11.0 Quantitative Risk Analysis

11.1 Methodology

The numerical risk ranking system incorporates the below factors.

Frequency of Occurrence or Exposure Severity of Incident Compliance Status Historical Occurrence (has previous incident occurred at CLIENT)

The following formula is used to compute the risk factor:

RF = Frequency x Severity + Compliance Status + Historical Occurrence

11.2 Numerical Assignments

Frequency Frequent = 5

Occasionally = 3

Seldom = 1.5

Severity Catastrophic = 4

(May cause death or complete facility loss)

Critical = 3

(Severe injury or illness or major property damage)

Marginal = 2

(Minor injury or illness or major property damage)

Negligible = 1

(< 1 lost work day but a violation of some kind)

Compliance Status Compliant = + 0

Minor improvements = + 2

Major improvements = + 4

Historical Occurrence Never = + 0

1 occurrence = + 2

> 1 occurrence = + 4

12.0 Summary & Findings

The purpose of the biennial hazard identification and risk assessment (HIRA) is to identify worksite hazards and conditions; evaluate the adequacy of safety programs and practices; determine exposure levels for site physical, chemical and radioactive hazards; quantify risk factors for specific hazards; and provide insight for improvements.

HIRA methods generally included desktop reviews of programs and records, site inspections and observations of work practices, monitoring of worker exposure parameters and hazards, and quantitative risk evaluation of hazards.

Materials of interest include non-hazardous oil and gas wastes, NORM, recyclable iron, scrap and rock, solid waste, compressed gases and fuels. Work over and completion fluids may pose the greatest skin hazard to workers. Produced saltwater, BS & W and condensate pose s significant flammability and explosion hazard.

Processes of direct interest include vehicle traffic, container offloading, dumping and washing, waste processing and vehicle washouts. Equipment maintenance and hot work, along with flammable source management are also of primary concern.

Exposure and hazard monitoring was performed onsite for benzene, volatile organic compounds, explosive compounds, noise, hydrogen sulfide, radiation, oxygen, carbon monoxide. Benzene and VOC measurements indicate significant hazards inside vertical tanks and frac tanks, in addition to posing worker exposures in process areas. Explosive conditions exist in vertical tank head spaces. Hydrogen sulfide is present in vertical tanks but below action levels. Noise levels warrant management in areas around injection pumps, processing and the air compressor. Noise levels in the vicinity of semi trucks can also be significant. Oxygen and carbon monoxide measurements do not indicate areas of concern. Radiation levels are negligible.

Historical injuries and incidents have included One (1) eye injury, one (1) back injury, two (2) equipment operations incidents, one (1) act of god, four (4) waste receipt or administrative incidents, and miscellaneous non documented spill, traffic, confined space, and slip incidents.

Safety Metrics indicate CLIENT has met or exceeded Industry averages since operations began in 1998.

The overall safety program compliance status is satisfactory with reservations. Management and resource commitments are satisfactory. Requirements are known and written programs and management systems are in place. Corporate and ES & H knowledge levels are satisfactory. Improvement is needed in program implementation and training, along with site knowledge levels. See section 9.0 for specific program evaluations.

The periodically required PPE assessment indicates that, based on current hazards, ppe requirements and policies are satisfactory.

A Quantitative safety risk analysis was performed of 28 safety programs or elements, incorporating frequency of occurrence or exposure, severity of incident, compliance status, and historical occurrence into the following formula: RF = FO x SI + CS + HO

The highest risk programs, in descending order, included: Material Handling – Forklift/Backhoe operations; Fall Protection – Process Tank; Fire Hazards/Prevention; Traffic; Welding & Cutting; Material Handling – Heavy Equipment Operations; Electrical Safety – Hazardous Areas; Electrical Safety – Maintenance Areas; Confined Spaces; and Slips & Trips.
