Term Definition Examples of incident type First Aid Case

Cases that are not medical treatment but require minor first aid treatment, e.g. dressing on a minor cut, removal of a splinter from a finger. First aid cases are not recordable incidents.

The following are generally considered first aid treatment: a) Using a non-prescription medication at non-prescription strength regardless of route of administration, i.e. oral, injection, ingestion, inhalation, or absorption. b) Administering tetanus immunizations (other post exposure immunizations, such as Hepatitis B vaccine are considered medical treatment); c) Cleaning, flushing, or soaking wounds on the surface of the skin; d) Using wound coverings such as bandages, Band-Aids gauze pads, etc.; or using butterfly bandages, liquid bandage/surgical glue used to cover a wound, or Steri-Strips e) Using hot or cold therapy; f) Using any non-rigid means of support, such as elastic bandages, wraps, non-rigid back belts, etc. (devices with rigid stays or other systems designed to immobilize parts of the body are considered medical treatment); g) Using temporary immobilization devices while transporting an incident victim (e.g. splints, slings, neck collars, back boards, etc.); h) Drilling of a fingernail or toenail to relieve pressure, or draining fluid from a blister; i) Using eye patches; j) Removing foreign bodies from the surface of the eye using only irrigation or cotton swab; k) Removing splinters or foreign material from areas other than the eye by irrigation, tweezers, cotton swabs, or other simple means; l) Using finger guards; m) Using massages (physical therapy or chiropractic treatment are considered medical treatment for record keeping purposes; or n) Drinking fluids for relief of heat stress or hypothermia.

Incident An unplanned and undesired event or chain of events that has, or could have, resulted in injury or illness, damage to assets, the environment, company reputation, and/or consequential business loss.

Key performance indicators (KPI)

These include: number of fatalities, fatal accident and incident rates, lost time injury frequency and total recordable injury frequency.

Term Definition Examples of incident type Leftovers Various kinds of waste resulting from industrial, mining,

agricultural or vocational activities or from houses, hospitals, public installations etc. disposed of, recycled or neutralized pursuant to the provisions of the prevailing laws in the Sultanate.

OIL MIXTURE: A mixture containing any percentage of oil.

Lifting, crane, rigging, deck operations (as a type of activity)

Activities related to the use of mechanical lifting and hoisting equipment, assembling and dis-assembling drilling rig equipment and drill pipe handling on the rig floor.

Loss of Primary Containment (LOPC)

An unplanned or uncontrolled release of any material from primary containment, including non-toxic and nonflammable materials (e.g. steam, hot condensate, nitrogen, compressed CO2 or compressed air).

Lost work day case (LWDC) / Lost Time Incident (LTI)

A Work-Related Injury/Illness for which the injured or ill employee or contractor experiences days away from work. In this situation, the injured or ill employee or contractor is affected to such extent that days must be taken off from the job for medical treatment or recuperation. Any work-related injury that renders the injured person temporarily unable to perform their normal work or restricted work on any day after the day on which the injury occurred. Any day includes a rest day, weekend day, scheduled holiday, public holiday or subsequent day after ceasing employment. A single incident can give rise to several lost workday cases, depending on the number of people injured as a result of that incident.

LTIF The Lost Time Incident Frequency is calculated using this formula: [Number of Lost Time Incidents multiplied by 1,000,000 and then divided by Total Cumulative Man-hours Worked]

LWDC severity

The average number of lost days per lost work day case.

Medical cause of death

This is the cause of death given on the death certificate. Where two types of causes are provided, such as pulmonary oedema caused by inhalation of hot gases from a fire, both are recorded.

Medical Treatment Case (MTC)

Any work-related injury that involves neither lost workdays or restricted workdays, but which receives Medical Treatment, beyond first aid.

For record keeping purposes Medical Treatment Case (MTC) does not include: a) Visits to a physician or other licensed health care professional solely for observation or consulting; b) Diagnostic procedures such as x-rays and blood tests, including the administration of prescription medications used solely for diagnostic purposes (e.g., eye drops to dilate pupils); or c) Administration of tetanus shot(s) or booster(s). However, these shots are often given in conjunction with more serious injuries; consequently, injuries requiring these shots may be recordable for other reasons






Version 1 Page 6


Standard




d) Any treatment contained on the list of first-aid treatments.

Minor MVI MVI that resulted in FAC and/or minor damages

Motor Vehicle Incident (MVI)

An incident involving a company or contractor vehicle in motion whether on or off the road, that has resulted in injury or damage to assets, the environment or the company's reputation, irrespective of the cost of repair or responsibility for the cause. A vehicle is defined as a car, van, light vehicle, heavy goods vehicle, road tanker, bus or motorcycle any unit under tow, e.g. trailers, rigs, caravans, mobile generators. It also includes plant or mobile cranes (if licensed to travel on the roadways) if the vehicle is driving on the roadway at the time of the incident.

a) Any crash involving a company, rental or personal vehicle while performing company business. b) Work relationship is presumed for crashes resulting from business being conducted on behalf of the company while operating a company assigned vehicle. Examples of company business include: Driving an employee or client to the airport, driving to the airport for a business trip: • Taking a client or work colleague

out for a business-related meal; • Deliveries; • Visiting clients or customers or

driving to a business-related appointment.

c) Personal business which should not be counted includes, but is not limited to: • Running a personal errand; • Getting a meal by yourself; • A non-business meal with

colleagues; • Commuting to and from home,

(including established home away from home) or;

• Driving to a personal medical appointment.

Motor Vehicle Incident Frequency

The number of motor vehicle incidents per million KM driving exposure during the period. The Motor Vehicle Incident Frequency is calculated using this formula: [Number of motor vehicles incidents multiplied by 1,000,000 and then divided by cumulative kilometers driven].

Near Miss event An unplanned or uncontrolled event or chain of events that has not resulted in recordable injury, illness, physical or environmental damage but had the potential to do so in other circumstances.

Non-Accidental Death

Non-accidental death is defined as the death of Operator or contract employee due to non-work-related suicide or non-work-related illness either at the workplace or company premises or due to a non-work-related illness which started at the workplace/company premises, but which subsequently resulted in death while the employee was outside of the workplace/ company premises – e.g. in an ambulance, airplane or in hospital. Operator premises includes Operator and contractor

Standard




accommodation, or during working hours on non-company premises.

Number of days unfit for work

The sum of calendar days (consecutive or otherwise) after the days of the occupational injuries on which the employees involved were unfit for work and did not work.

Number of fatalities

The total number of a company’s employees and or contractor’s employees who died as a result of an incident. Delayed deaths that occur after the incident are included if the deaths were a direct result of the incident. For example, if a fire killed one person outright, and a second died three weeks later from lung damage caused by the fire, both are reported.

Occupational Illness

An Occupational Illness is any work-related abnormal condition or disorder that is determined by a physician or licensed health care professional, caused by exposure to factors related to the employee’s occupation / environmental factors associated with the employment, other than one resulting from an Occupational Injury, and meets general recording criteria.

It includes both acute and chronic illness; and/or diseases which may be caused by inhalation, absorption, ingestion, or direct contact with the hazard, as well as exposure to physical and psychological hazards, such as: • Acute illnesses that result even

from relatively short exposure times.

Illnesses caused, in whole or in part, by exposures to chemicals, physical agents • (e.g., radiation, noise, and extreme

temperatures), biological agents (e.g., infectious disease organisms or biological compounds: and

• Ergonomic factors (e.g., repetitive motions and overexertion). Heat (and cold) related problems are illnesses.

• If a worker gets sick because someone used a cleaning product one time, it is an injury. If the product is used over a long period of time as part of their job, it would be an occupational illness. Whether a case involves a reportable injury, or an occupational illness is determined by the nature of the original event or exposure which caused the case, not by the resulting condition of the affected employee. Injuries are caused by a single event.

Cases resulting from anything other than a single event are considered occupational illness. Examples include: • Poisoning by substances used at

work; • Skin diseases arising from

exposure to substances used at work;






Version 1 Page 8


Standard




• Occupationally induced lung diseases;

• Pneumoconiosis; • Asbestosis; • Mesothelioma / Lung cancer; • Malignant disease of the bone or

blood problems arising from work with Ionizing radiation;

• Vibration white finger; • Food poisoning; • hydrogen sulfide poisoning; • welder exposed to fumes created

from heating galvanized material. Occupational injury

Any injury such as a cut, fracture, sprain, amputation, or any fatality, which results from a work-related instantaneous exposure.

Exposure involving a single incident in the work environment, such as deafness from explosion, one-time chemical exposure, back disorder from a slip/trip, insect or snake bite.

Operator OPAL member organizations licensed and registered under MOG for Exploration and Production as Upstream Operator, Midstream Operator and Downstream Operator including Refinery and HC distribution company

Operator Employee

Any person employed by and on the payroll of the Operator, including corporate and management personnel in exploration and production. Persons employed under short-service contracts are included as Operator employees provided they are paid directly by the Operator Company.

Process safety A disciplined framework for managing the integrity of hazardous operating systems and processes by applying good design principles, engineering, and operating and maintenance practices.

Process Safety Events, Tier 1 LOPC Incidents with greater consequence as defined by

API Recommended Practice 754.

The count of Tier 1 process safety events is the most lagging performance indicator and represents incidents with greater consequence resulting from actual losses of containment.

Process Safety Events, Tier 2

Incidents with one or more of the consequences as defined in part 6.3 of the API Recommended Practice 754, passing the Tier 2 threshold, and not reported in Tier 1.

The count of Tier 2 process safety events represents loss of primary containment events with a lesser consequence, but may be predictive of future, more significant incidents.


Challenges to Safety Systems: A Tier 3 PSE typically represents a challenge to the barrier system that progressed along the path to harm but is stopped short of a Tier 1 or Tier 2 LOPC consequence.

Indicators at this level provide an additional opportunity to identify and correct weaknesses within the barrier system.


Operating Discipline and Management System Performance Indicators: Tier 4 indicators represent operating discipline and management system performance.

Tier 4 performance indicators must reflect facility-specific barrier systems, facility-specific performance objectives, and the maturity of any existing performance indicators.

Term Definition Examples of incident type Process safety incident / event

A process safety event is an incident that resulted in, or could potentially have resulted in an unplanned or uncontrolled release of: • Combustible liquids (e.g. Mono-Ethylene Glycol (MEG), Tri-ethylene glycol (TEG), diesel, lube oil, hydraulic oil, etc.); • Flammable liquids (e.g. crude oil, methanol, IPA, etc.); • Flammable gas (e.g. natural gas, butane, pentane, etc.); or • Toxic chemicals (e.g. H2S, SO2, mercury, etc.); or • Non-toxic and non-flammable materials (e.g. steam, nitrogen, compressed CO2 or compressed air) that result in actual consequences.

Process safety related

Process safety related events are those which do not meet the specific criteria to be classified as Tier 1 or 2 process safety events, but which have learning potential in the prevention of process safety events.

Recordable Incident or Total Recordable Case (TRC)

All work-related incidents are reportable, but only the following are recordable a) Fatality b) Lost time Incident from work (LTI) c) Restricted work Case activity (RWC) d) Medical treatment Case other than first aid (MTC) e) Asset damage f) Environmental damage g) Reputational damage

For record keeping purposes, the following incidents are to be classified as “Medical Treatment cases” unless they result in death, days away from work, days of restricted work, or job transfer. a) Work-Related Cancer; b) Work-Related chronic irreversible

disease; c) Positive x-ray diagnosis of fractures

cracked or broken bones, etc. regardless of type of treatment given. This includes chipped, broken or cracked tooth/teeth;

d) Punctured ear drum; e) Loss of consciousness; f) Treatment of infection; g) Application of antiseptics during

second or subsequent visit to medical personnel;

q) Application of heat therapy during the second or subsequent visit to medical personnel

r) Use of whirlpool bath therapy during the second or subsequent visit to medical personnel

s) Admission to a hospital or equivalent medical facility for treatment or observation for more than 12 hours.

Restricted Work Case (RWC)

A Restricted Work Case (RWC) occurs when an employee cannot perform all of the routine job functions but does not result in days away from work. Note: Restricted or light duty the day of the injury or illness does not make the incident a recordable Restricted Work Case (RWC). If the employee continues under restricted duty the day after the incident, the case becomes a recordable Restricted Work Case (RWC).

Roll-Over Any instance of a vehicle flipping onto its side or roof is classified as a Roll-Over and is Recordable. Or Where a vehicle rotates such that it finishes resting on its side or otherwise rotates past 90 degrees.

Security incidents

An act, omission, circumstance, or occurrence which directly or indirectly adversely affects the security of people or assets. Such incidents may include actual and suspected events including: acts of violence, theft, suspicious or threatening behavior, terrorism, emergency situations such as flood, earthquake, disorderly and/or disruptive conduct and unauthorized access, electronic hack and breach of sensitive information.

Severe MVI MVI that resulted in LTI, MTC, RWC and rollover

Third party Individuals, groups of people or companies, other than the principal contracted parties, that may be affected by or involved with the contract.

TRCF The Total Recordable Cases Frequency is calculated using this formula: [Number of Total Recordable Cases multiplied by 1,000,000 and then divided by Total Cumulative Man-hours Worked]

Unsafe act Unsafe acts are undesirable behaviors (commissions or omissions) that could have caused accident, e.g. over speeding, operating machinery without guards or environmental impact, e.g. discharge of waste oil into sewage

Unsafe condition An unsafe condition in the work place is a condition that does not comply with an acceptable standard or Is a condition of a worksite which could have led to an injury,

Standard




damage or harm, but which did not result in any on this occasion.

Working hours Working hours to calculate incident rates shall include all personnel work hours who are directly engaged in the activities as well indirect support services and administrative staff. Company sponsored training hours should be included whether training is on-site or off-site. Off-duty hours, rest days and non-work-related hours spent by employees should not be considered for incident reporting.

Work-related incident

A work-related incident results only from a work-related activity i.e. an activity which has/should have management controls in place.

The following activities should be considered as work related until proven otherwise: o All work by Operator personnel on

shift, o All work by Operator contractor on

Operator premises or on non- Operator premises for which it can reasonably be concluded, based on risk assessment that Operator and contractor management controls are required.

“Contractor” includes all sub-contracted (etc.) activities. For Operator personnel, work includes overtime, attending courses, conferences, company organised events, business travel, field visits or any other activity where the employee’s presence is expected by the employer. o Participation in voluntary programs is

not considered work related. o Incidents off shift whilst away from

home are not considered work related.

For contractor personnel, the same activities are included when they are executed under a contract on behalf of Operator. Where it is impossible or inappropriate for the Company to seek to apply management controls on a contractor, exceptions may be justifiable. Examples may be found in areas where contractor services are not dedicated to the company, for example: o Manufacturing of components in a

factory together with the manufacture of components for other customers,

o Construction at a contractor’s fabrication site shared by other customers,

o Delivery of goods or products to company locations by a contractor who is also employed to deliver goods

or products to other companies during the same journey,

o Customer collection of company products, where the vehicle and drivers are controlled by customer.
