Implementation of Plan-Do-Check-Act review of an Onshore Oil and Gas Operator’s Corrosion Management Policy and Actions

HSG-65 alongside the Energy Institutes Corrosion Management Guidelines were used as the basis for the audit of a large onshore Middle Eastern oil field. The purpose of the Study was to perform a detailed review of the corrosion monitoring and mitigation systems and to propose any required upgrades to ensure world class / excellent asset integrity performance.

The approach taken to the Study was to follow the UK Health & Safety Executive’s guidance for “Managing Health and Safety”, HSG65 (2013), of PLAN-DO-CHECK-ACT, which considers both Technical and Systems approaches associated with managing assets safely. This is a closed loop planetary model commencing with a high-level Corporate Policy for health and safety, under which there is a Policy and Plan for managing corrosion and integrity. The model ends with lessons learned which feeds back into the corrosion and integrity Policy and Plan to ensure risks are managed to As Low As Reasonably Practicable (ALARP).
The study highlighted a distinct pattern in the working practices of the operator with virtually all of the sections of the corrosion management system being shown to have some form of Plan and Do however the implementation of a Check and Act stage was missing from virtually all aspects
