In your safety role on an offshore oil production platform, you have been asked to
take part in a risk assessment and subsequent procedures for the preparation and
repair of a large, electrically-driven pump containing a hot, flammable liquid. The
pump needs to be stopped, the large suction and discharge valves closed, the
pump contents removed and the pump inerted before the repair is carried out.
A. Identify hazards AND, in EACH case, outline an associated risk
with the preparation of the pump: - ANSWER - the temperature of the pump
and associated pipework leading to the risk of burns from contact.
- the vertical distance (work at height) leading to falls from height.
- the pump accidentally being started and leading to injury from contact with
rotating parts.
- the release of flammable vapour leading to fire/explosion
- the gas used for inerting will reduce the oxygen concentration and may lead to
asphyxiation
- the use of excessive force to close valves leading to manual handling injury.
