1. Introduction
Purpose of this document is to describe the HSE requirements for the pre-commssioning and
commissioning activities of the RKPP Project.
This Pre-Commissioning and Commissioning HSE Plan defines the safety precautions to be
established for ensuring that commissioning and start up activities are undertaken in a manner
that both personnel carrying out the works and personnel working in surrounded area will not be
exposed to hazard which may derive from these specific activities.
The HSE Plan describes the organisation, objectives, activities and schedule that SEPCOIII has
undertaken to manage the Health, Safety and Environment activities during the Project. An HSE
Management System has been established to ensure that all HSE issues are comprehensively
addressed during the Project cycle and that all project choices and decisions are justified with
respect to their implications on HSE.
The General Site Manager (GSM) will ensure that this document is regularly reviewed at site.
This plan has to be read in conjunction with the HSE Plan (00-TAA-ADC-107001-00) especially
for the part relevant to the applicable laws, regulation and references.
This Plan is a live document and as such, will be developed by SEPCOIII, as necessary during
the project.

When dealing with a potentially harmful chemical, precautions should be taken to ensure that employees
do not swallow it, inhale it, or allow it to contact their skin. The chemical must not be allowed to
accidentally mix with other substances in transportation, storage, or use. It must not be subjected to
undue shock, pressure, or heat. When the chemical is no longer needed, it must be safely disposed of
or recycled.
When dealing with an unfamiliar chemical, it is always wise to assume that it is hazardous. The
exposure to hazards associated with a material depends largely on its proper identification, handling,
usage, transport, storage and disposal. Only the necessary amount of hazardous materials should be
brought into the site. Hazardous materials must not be allowed to accumulate, and any extra amounts
should be cleared from the work area. Slop liquids or trash should be cleared away immediately. All
hazardous materials should be stored according to the specifications of their Material Safety Data
Sheets (MSDS).
