Onshore & Offshore Oil & Gas - Gibb Safety

LOCKOUT TAGOUT SOLUTIONS

DEDICATED & BESPOKE ONSHORE/OFFSHORE OIL & GAS

ONSHORE & OFFSHORE OIL & GAS

Lockout Tagout is the best industry practice to securely isolate hazardous energy. Within the Oil & Gas industry, the necessity to effectively utilize LOTO procedures & equipment is more important than ever. Every action when manually handling equipment upon an offshore or onshore rig is strictly governed to the highest level of safety and requires high quality equipment and processes to keep operatives and workers safe from injury or worse.

Gibb Safety & Survival have partnered with specialists to ensure an expert supply into the industry. Providing a wide range, yet specific catalogue of Lockout Tagout Equipment. Each LOTO kit & product have been designed and chosen to provide the required solutions for all requirements and needs when actively controlling Oil & Gas energy sources. The process and procedure to implement each task is only as effective as the equipment used to fulfil & vice versa. Highlighting the need for specialists to assist in the process from survey to implementation.

Below shows a 10 step LOTOTO process which can be used to keep everyone safe.

7. ENSURE THAT ANY DISSIPATED ENERGY IS SAFETY RELIEVED AND CAN NOT RE-ACCUMULATE.

9. COMPLETE ALL TASKS, ENSURE VIGILANT OBSERVATION IS CONTINUED.

6. TAGS ARE TO BE APPLIED IN ALL CASES WHERE A LOCK IS PRESENT.

8. TEST THE OPERATING CONTROLS. BE SURE NOBODY CAN GET HURT BEFORE TESTING

10. RESTART EQUIPMENT.

The environmental conditions can often be extremely harsh. Premises and equipment are routinely exposed to highly corrosive, chemical, explosive, and salt air conditions. Longer term shuts, complex isolations, and turnarounds, all mean LOTO (Lockout-Tagout) equipment is under these extreme conditions for longer periods of time.

1. IDENTIFY THE TYPES OF ENERGY SOURCES USED, POTENTIAL HAZARDS, AND ALL CONTROL DEVICES.

5. LOCKOUT ALL SWITCHES AND ENERGY CONTROLS IN THE “OFF” OR “SAFE” POSITION

3. TURN OFF ALL OPERATING CONTROLS

2. NOTIFY ALL AFFECTED EMPLOYEES

4. ISOLATE ALL ENERGY SOURCES

IDENTIFYING AND CONTROLLING ALL ISOLATION POINTS

HANDOVER PROCEDURES

CONTROLLING ISOLATIONS ON COMPANY SHUTDOWNS, OUTAGES AND TURNAROUNDS

LOTOTO TRAINING AND AWARENESS

DID YOU KNOW?

CONTACT WITH MOVING MACHINERY IS STILL IN THE FATAL 6. IN THE U.S. IT REMAINS THE 5TH MOST COMMON CAUSE OF INCIDENT. THE U.S. AND UK ARE GOVERNED BY STRICT REGULATIONS TO ISOLATE SAFELY.

STEP 2: PROPOSED SOLUTION

Following the gap analysis and survey, proposed solutions will be included within the report.

The steps below show the process that should be in place, as standard within the industry utilising LOTOTO. In some instances only small changes may be required within the isolation process.

STEP 1. PREPARATION

STEP 2. NOTIFY

STEP 3. TURNOFF

STEP 4. ISOLATE

STEP 5. LOCKOUT EQUIPMENT APPLICATION

ENERGY HAZARDS AND SOURCES

• ELECTRICITY

• HYDRAULIC PRESSURE

• PNEUMATIC AIR LINES

• KINETIC MOVEMENT

• LIQUIDS AND GASES

• GRAVITY AND FALLS FROM HEIGHT

STEP 3: NEXT STEPS

STEP 6. TAG APPLICATION

STEP 7. CONFIRM – ZERO ENERGY

STEP 8. TRYOUT

STEP 9. COMPLETION

STEP 10. RE-ENERGISE

• SPRING TENSION

• MECHANICAL

• THERMAL

• NUCLEAR

• AND MORE!

TO FINALIZE YOUR ORDER SIMPLY CONFIRM WITH AN OFFICIAL PURCHASE ORDER.

We have all of the stock available to ensure a rapid delivery.

We will be able to print the bespoke boards within the week meaning implementation can be completed in 5-7 days of point of order.
