1 INTRODUCTION
1.1 Purpose
This Procedure defines PETRONAS Carigali Permit to

Work (PTW) system and the process of obtaining work
permits including the requirements of obtaining Certificates
where required.
1.2 Scope
The requirements defined in this procedure shall be

applicable for all hazardous activities carried out at all work
locations throughout PETRONAS Carigali global
operations, including Contractors and Sub-Contractors
engaged for work on Company facilities.
Hazardous are activities that have been identified by the

Hazards and Effects Management Process as vital to
ensure asset integrity, prevent incidents, and/or mitigate
adverse HSE effects.
Examples of hazardous activities are pigging, production

sampling, wireline activities, blasting, welding, etc.
1.3 Permit to Work Requirement
(1) The purpose of PTW system is to ensure that risks

associated with work activities are managed to a level
that is as low as reasonably practicable (ALARP). The
PTW is a written document authorizing persons to
carry out the work concerned, warning them of
possible hazards and spelling out precautions needed
for the job to be done safely.
(2) Listed below is the criteria for the application of PTW

system:
(a) For work carried out on PETRONAS Carigali

facilities, PETRONAS Carigali PTW System
shall be used;
(b) For work carried out on Contractor’s facilities,

Contractor’s PTW may be used subject to
PETRONAS Carigali review and acceptability.
When Contractor PTW system is used,
PETRONAS Carigali representatives (e.g. OIM,
Terminal Manager, CSR, Drilling Supervisor)
shall be included as part of the signatory parties
for acknowledgement.

Page 2
(3) For workover/infill drilling work carried out on the rig

floor, where Contractor’s PTW is applied, a photocopy
of the Contractor’s PTW shall be provided to the OIM
for reference.
(4) As a general principle, PTW shall be applied for all

activities which may harmfully affect the personnel,
environment, asset or reputation carried out on
PETRONAS Carigali facilities. The examples of work
that requires PTW among others are as follows:
(a) Hot Work: Any activities or equipment which

may have the potential to generate incentive
sparks or other sources of ignition such as
welding, flame cutting, grinding,
grit/sandblasting, taking of photograph using
camera with flash, use of non-intrinsically safe
equipment, including opening of junction boxes
etc. (potential ignition sources). Refer to sub-
section 1.5 for details of hot work requirement in
hazardous area;
(b) Cold Work: Any activities or equipment which

does not have the potential to generate sparks
such as erecting/dismantling of scaffolding, cold
cutting, etc;
(c) Work in confined space i.e. Any enclosed or

partially enclosed space, either above or below
ground or deck level, where entry is possible
and where accumulation of dust or gases which
are flammable or hazardous to health;
Examples of confined space are:
(i) Process vessels and related equipment

(vessel tower skirt and flare stacks),
boilers;
(ii) Cooling tower, pipe, storage tanks, other

tanks including pontoon in floating roof
tanks;
(iii) Spaces located below ground or deck

level, such as drain pits, sewage pits and
associated tunnels, ducts, trenches, wells,
shafts, cellars, vaults and unventilated
rooms which may be considered confined
space under specific circumstances;
(iv) The cargo, ballast or void space onboard

ship; and

Page 3
(v) The support columns/legs/pontoons of

fixed or mobile off-shore installations.
(d) Excavation work of the ground in excess of

150mm (brownfield);
(e) Mechanical lifting activities involving pedestal,

mobile and gantry crane. Lifting using gantry
crane in workshop may be carried out without a
PTW;
(f) Radiation work involving the handling of

radioactive materials such as radiography
works, working in or on equipment containing
radioisotopes and removing or servicing
radioisotopes;
(g) Closure of any road that may affect the passage

of emergency response vehicles;
(h) Electrical works in close proximity to live

conductors/equipment/apparatus,or testing of
live voltage conductors;
(i) Diving activities e.g. inspection and

maintenance of subsurface structures,
decommissioning of facilities, etc.;
(j) Work with bypass of safety critical equipment

that may jeopardise reliability of process control;
(k) Work requiring energy isolation e.g. physical,

electrical or radiation; and
(l) Vehicle entry into PETRONAS Carigali

production facilities.
(5) For work which requires Certificates, the Work Permit

shall be supplemented with the required Certificates.
(6) In cases of doubt as to whether a work activity

requires a PTW, the PTW requirement shall be
complied with if deemed necessary by the Approving
Authority.

Page 4
1.4 Hot work in Non-Hydrocarbon Facilities
(1) Non-hydrocarbon facilities are facilities that do not

process, store or operate hydrocarbon or any
flammable materials in its facilities. Examples of non-
hydrocarbon facilities are supply base, office, base
camp, fabrication yard, etc.
(2) For hot work at non-HC facilities, the work may be

carried out without conducting gas test in view that
there is no expected presence of HC in the area.
(3) However, other controls and recovery measures in

making safe the activity shall still be implemented.
1.5 Hot Work in Hazardous Area
(1) Hazardous area are defined as below (based on IP

Model Code of Safe Practice Part 15):
Zone 0: Hazardous area in which a

flammable atmosphere is
continuously present or present for
a long period
flammable atmosphere is likely to
occur in normal operation.
flammable atmosphere is not likely
to occur in normal operation and if
it occurs will exist only for a short
period.
Non- Area where flammable vapours,
classified/ liquids or gas do not or are not
hazardous expected to exist
area
Hierarchy of Hot Work Management
(1) Where possible, hot work should not be carried out in

hazardous area.
(2) However, if the hot work is unavoidable, the next

preference is to shutdown, depressurise and render
hydrocarbon-free. This is to minimize the potential
source of fuel that may be ignited by the spark
produced from the hot work activities.

Page 5
(3) The requirements for carrying out hot work in

hazardous area are as follows:
Zone Limitations
Zone 0  No hot work on live facility shall be
allowed, unless the facility is
shutdown, depressurise and render
hydrocarbon-free.
Zone 1  For open flame hot work e.g. oxy

cutting, grinding, etc., the facility shall
be shutdown, depressurise and render
hydrocarbon-free prior proceeding with
hot work.
 For blasting, the activity shall only

proceed after conversion of instrument
gas to instrument air, flanges are
wrapped and the area is barricaded
Note: For blasting on process piping

where the remaining wall thickness is
less than the corrosion allowance, the
piping/equipment shall be shutdown
prior blasting.
 Non-open flame/non-blasting hot work

e.g. use of portable hand-held non-
intrinsically safe (non-Ex) equipment in
Zone 1 area may proceed with
implementation of other control and
recovery barriers
Zone 2  Open flame hot work on live facility

shall only proceed with use of
Pressurised Habitat
 For blasting, the activity may only

proceed after conversion of instrument
gas to instrument air, flanges are
wrapped and the area is barricaded
Note: For blasting on process piping

where the remaining wall thickness is
less than the corrosion allowance, the
piping/equipment shall be shutdown
prior blasting.
 Non-open flame/non-blasting hot work

e.g. use of portable hand-held and
mobile non-intrinsically safe (non-Ex)
equipment e.g. mobile genset, mobile
air-compressor, etc. in Zone 2 area
may proceed with implementation of
other control and recovery barriers.

Page 6
Non- Hot work may be allowed with the conduct

classified/ of gas testing and implementation of other
hazardous/ required control and recovery barriers
safe area identified in risk assessment
(4) Additionally, a rigorous risk assessment shall also be

conducted for all hot work activities to identify any
other control and recovery barriers to ensure the risks
associated with the work is minimised to ALARP.
(5) Regular gas testing at site shall be carried out for any
hot work activity.
Note: Gas test at start of shift or activity only is not

acceptable. AGT has the authority to withdraw
a PTW if condition is deem unsafe.
(6) For facilities equipped with fixed gas detectors, the

gas detectors shall not be bypassed during the hot
work activities.
(7) For hot work inside confined space, in addition to the

hot work requirement, the confined space entry
requirement (e.g. medical declaration, CSE training,
etc) shall be fully complied with.
(8) The process to allow the hot work activities to be

conducted on ‘live’ facility is summarized as Figure 1
and 2 below.
(9) For hot work in confined space, the conduct of the

work shall comply with WW ALL S 05 004
PETRONAS Carigali Confined Space Procedure.
