1. INTRODUCTION
Mobil Cepu Ltd. (MCL), an ExxonMobil subsidiary is undertaking the development of the Banyu Urip
oil reserves to produce sour crude and associated gas from multiple wellpads located at Bojonegoro
Regency, East Java Province, Indonesia.
The Banyu Urip Project is located in East Java, consisting of the Central Field Facility (CFF), which
includes the Production Processing Facilities (PPF, also known as EPC1) and supporting
Infrastructure Facilities (IF, which also known as EPC5), export, storage and offloading facilities. The
facility is expected to produce sour crude and associated gas from multiple wellpads. The crude will
be sweetened in the Central Processing Facility (CPF) and sent via onshore and offshore pipelines to
a floating storage and offloading (FSO) vessel located off the north coast of Java near the city of
Tuban. Associated gas and water will be re-injected into the reservoir. Additional fresh water will be
injected into the reservoir. Sulfur as the side product will be sold through trucking operation.
MCL through its contractor, TRIPATRA-SAMSUNG Consortium has engaged GL Noble Denton to
perform an Escape, Evacuation and Rescue Analysis (EERA) Study for Banyu Urip Project EPC1.
EPC1 includes three wellpads, CPF, sour crude processing, gas and water injection, produced water
treatment, utilities and other safety systems.
This report covers the methodology and findings of the EERA Study.
2.1 Objectives
The objectives of the EERA study are to:
• Assess the provisions for escape, muster, and evacuation of personnel at the Banyu Urip
Production Processing Facilities, i.e. the EPC1 facility. The assessment is based on analysis
of the following six (6) goals:
o Goal 1 (Alarm);
o Goal 2 (Escape);
o Goal 3 (Muster);
o Goal 4 (Decision to Evacuate);
o Goal 5 (Rescue / Medical Evacuation); and
o Goal 6 (Evacuate).
• Identify Major Accident Events (MAEs) which may impair escape, muster, and evacuation of
personnel.
• Estimate the time required for personnel to escape to the allocated Field Muster Points
(FMPs).
• Confirm adequacy of the Escape, Evacuation, Muster and Rescue (EEMR) facilities and
recommend improvements to EEMR facilities where required.
3. BASIS OF STUDY
The EERA study covers escape, muster, evacuation and rescue during representative MAEs. The
MAEs were identified based upon a screening of the findings from the CPF Fire Hazard Assessment
[1], CPF Explosion Study [2] and CFF Gas Dispersion Study [3] that have been performed for the
Banyu Urip EPC1 Facility.
• Goal 1 (Alarm): All personnel are made aware, in a timely manner that an incident has
occurred.
• Goal 2 (Escape): All personnel are able to escape to the Field Muster Point without
unacceptable risk.
• Goal 3 (Muster): The muster points remain safe for a sufficient time to enable muster,
communication and controlled evacuation for all foreseeable incidents.
• Goal 4 (Decision to Evacuate): All personnel are made aware, in a timely manner of the
decision to evacuate the installation.
• Goal 5 (Rescue / Medical Evacuation): Adequate means exist for the medical evacuation of
injured personnel and transport of injured personnel to a medical facility / hospital.
• Goal 6 (Evacuation): Suitable means of evacuation are provided to allow personnel to
evacuate the facility without unacceptable risk.
The definitions of terms used in this study are presented in Table 3.1.
Table 3.1: Definition of Terms [4]
Term Definitions
Acts of personnel moving away from a hazardous event to a place where its effects
are reduced or removed. Note that escape may only provide temporary protection
Escape
from the event and/or other hazards, from which subsequent evacuation and/or
rescue are necessary; e.g. escape to sea.
Designated area that is protected from hazardous events, where personnel will report
Muster Area
when required to do so in an emergency.
Evacuation Planned method of leaving the installation in an emergency.
Process by which persons who, in an emergency situation, have been injured or
unable to escape (e.g. due to blocked escape routes), or who have evacuated the
Rescue
installation by potentially unsafe means (e.g. to sea), are retrieved to a place of
safety.
3.2 Methodology
3.2.1 EER Analysis
The evaluation of the adequacy of the EEMR facilities and systems, as per current design, was
performed based on:
• Functionality: Examining the adequacy of EEMR facilities to meet the EEMR goals; and
• Survivability: Examining the capability of EEMR facilities to fulfill their intended functions in the
event of an MAE.
The MAEs below were extracted from the CPF Fire Hazard Assessment [1], CPF Explosion Study [2]
and CFF Gas Dispersion Study [3] that have been performed for the Banyu Urip CPF:
• Fires;
• Explosions;
• Loss of containment (H2S gas release);
• Dropped objects; and
• Structural failure.
General requirements which are set out for the EEMR goals need to be achieved for the system and
facilities to be considered effective.
Escape routes and muster points are considered to be impaired if exposed to radiation levels in
2
excess of 4 kW/m (refer to Appendix A - Assumption Sheet A2).
Explosion Overpressure
Equipment and structure may be damaged by explosion overpressure and falling structures may
obstruct escape routes. Hence, CMPT suggests that structures could be blown due to explosion
overpressure of more than 0.35 bar. The impairment criteria of 0.35 bar is utilised to assess the failure
of escape routes and muster points when subjected to explosion events [4].
The impairment criteria utilised to assess the failure of structures and buildings when subjected to
explosion events are presented in Table 3.3 below.
Table 3.3: Damage Due to Explosion Overpressure [4]
Based on Table 3.3 above, 0.35 bar is taken as the minimum overpressure that could cause
impairment to the EEMR facilities.
Hydrogen Sulphide Toxicity Limit
Hydrogen sulphide (H2S) is an acutely toxic substance which is immediately lethal at relatively low
concentrations. The H2S occupational exposure limit according to Ministry of Manpower and
Transmigration Regulations No. 13 of 2011 is 1 ppm for 8 hours and 5 ppm for 15 minutes. Exposure
to a 1,000 ppm concentration of H2S in air produces rapid paralysis of the respiratory system, cardiac
arrest, and death within minutes.
Mobile Cepu Limited (MCL) has recommended a Threshold Limit Value (TLV) of 5 ppm for H2S [5].
Short-Term Exposure Limit (STEL) is set at 10 ppm.
The Immediately Dangerous to Life and Health (IDLH) for Hydrogen Sulphide is 100 ppm based on
acute inhalation toxicity data in humans [5].
For the EERA assessment, concentration of H2S at 10 ppm is taken as the impairment criteria that is
able to cause impairment to the Muster Areas and 100 ppm for the escape routes. Even though the
TLV for H2S is 5 ppm, 10 ppm is taken as the impairment criteria as the CFF Gas Dispersion Study [3]
has only results of H2S release at 10 ppm, 100 ppm, 500 ppm and 1000 ppm.
3.3 Assumptions
Refer to Appendix A for the list of assumptions made in this study. The assumptions are broken down
into:
Table 3.4: List of Assumptions

A2 Impairment Criteria
A3 Field Muster Point (FMP) and Egress Point
A4 Estimation of Time to Evacuate
A5 Emergency Response
A6 Portable H2S Detectors
A7 Medivac H2S Escape Pack
Flammable gas detectors will be provided around high leak potential equipment,
e.g. seals on rotating equipment.
Point and open path detectors will be positioned appropriately for the density of
gas that they are installed to detect.
The gas detection system provides two levels of alarm [6, 21]:
1. ‘Gas’ Alarm
o Single point detector : < 25% LEL; or
All detectors in the facility have the consistent set points for flammable gas
detection system [6].
Toxic gas detector should be installed in high leak potential equipment, which
handles H2S concentration in vapor phase exceeding 1000 ppm; or where the
isenthalpic flash of H2S dissolved liquid at atmospheric pressure, produces vapour
with H2S concentration above 1000 ppm.
At least two (2) toxic gas detectors will be installed around the high potential
release points, e.g. pumps and compressors.
Toxic Gas The toxic gas detection system provides two levels of alarm [6]:
For incandescent fires, optical fire detectors will be used, e.g. CCTV-based with
image processing, multi-band IR detectors, combination UV/IR detectors.
The fire detection system also provides two levels of alarm [6]:
1. ‘Fire’ Alarm
Fire/Flame
o Single UV/IR flame detector; or
o Single CCTV based flame detector; or
o Single smoke detector.
2. ‘Confirmed Fire’ Alarm
o A single pressurised/fusible loop/linea heat detection indication; or
o Any combination of 2 detectors.
Manual Alarm Call (MAC) points will be located throughout the facility as follows:
MAC points will be protected from any inadvertent operation. MAC points will be
located to be easily operable from the level of the exit route on which they are
situated. The MACs will be easily operable by personnel wearing Personnel
Protective Equipment (PPE). MAC points will be clearly visible and labelled.

To assist the evacuation process, the escape routes will have the following features below [14]:
1. Clearly marked and illuminated.
2. Show exit points and directions to the muster points.
3. Location of Personnel Protective Equipment (PPE) and Fire Fighting Equipment will be clearly
labelled and marked.
4. Signs will be suitable for the condition of emergency, such as smoke.
The CPF is provided with two (2) Field Muster Points (FMPs). It is expected that personnel will escape
and muster at the nearest unimpaired FMP. For the EERA study, the CPF was divided into two (2)
zones to conduct the assessment systematically. The demarcated zones are presented in Appendix
G.0.
The two Field Muster Points (FMPs) for CPF are described in Table 4.9.
Table 4.9: Field Muster Points and Egress Points for Different Areas in CPF [15]
The Medivac Team, Fire Team and Emergency Response Team are expected to muster at the central
control building or the emergency command center.
Egress points are vital for personnel to escape from the CPF, and hence, accessibility of personnel to
the egress points are analysed as the core in the Escape Goal Analysis, which is further discussed in
Section 5.3.
Upon sounding of the PA/GA alarm to muster, personnel at the affected area are expected to stop
work, go to and don SCBA or Escape Pack and proceed to muster at the allocated FMP outside the
CPF area.
Table 4.10 presents the Field Muster Points for the three wellpads.

Legend:
: Potential impairment of EEMR facilities due to MAE hence further impairment assessment is required. Assessment is
presented in Goal Analysis.
: No impairment of EEMR facility due to MAE. Reasons are provided in Section 5.1.1 to Section 5.1.4.
5.1.1 Fires
EEMR facilities may be impaired by fires from process facilities in a form of fire impingement or
2
thermal radiation exposure of more than 4 kW/m . The detailed fire impairment assessment was done
in the CPF Fire Hazard Assessment [1].
5.1.2 Explosions
An explosion event is typically a delayed ignition event, which is preceded by fire and gas (F&G)
detection alarm system. On top of that, F&G systems are not vulnerable to explosion events, as they
would have fulfilled their intended function of sounding the alarm prior to explosion events.
During explosion, structures and equipment may fall and obstruct the escape routes. This may hinder
personnel from escaping to the muster point. However, alternative escape routes are available.
Explosion events, on the contrary, could potentially impair the muster areas, life saving and safety
equipment. Therefore, they are vulnerable to explosion.
Note that the detailed explosion assessment was conducted in the CPF Explosion Study [2]. Based
on the CPF Explosion Study report, explosion scenarios in the wellpads are not expected, and hence,
the wellpads EEMR facilities are not vulnerable to explosion.
Explosion-proof speaker will be installed in every module in the CPF as well as the three wellpads [8,
9, 10]. For high ambient noise areas, beacon lights are expected to perform their functions alerting
personnel of any emergency events.
PA/GA speakers will be installed throughout the CPF and the wellpads to alert personnel of any
emergency situations. The PA/GA system will automatically generate the appropriate preset audible
alarms for fire, flammable gas, H2S gas and etc.
Personnel can also be alerted about the need to muster, through their portable radios which will be in
their possession at all times [14].
The escape routes are around the periphery of Zone 1. This provides
accessible escape route for personnel in this area. Personnel are able to
muster in FMP-1 after escaping from Zone 1 via Main Gate 1.
Based on the Escape Route Layouts [13], it can be seen that egress routes are
clearly marked to assist personnel in traversing from equipment areas, pipe-
ways, bunds and stairwells to the main escape routes while escaping.
Also from the Navis 3D Model drawings, no visible valves or piping can be
1 seen blocking the main escape routes. Moreover, the escape route is 1.525m
wide, which has sufficient space for personnel to escape.
(Area C00100, C00200,
C00500, C01500, C00300, In the event that the escape routes to egress point in Zone 1 (Main Gate 1) is
C00400, C00600 and C00700) impaired, an alternative option for personnel in Zone 1 is to escape through
Zone 2, via Main Gate 2 to FMP-2, or through Wellpad B.
Recommendations
To ensure that enclosed areas such as the Control Building, Laboratory, etc
are provided with more than one exit from the areas.
To ensure that two separate stairs are provided as far as possible in the
enclosed areas, along with proper safety signs showing the exit points and
escape directions.

impaired, an alternative option for personnel in Zone 1 is to escape through
Zone 1, via Main Gate 1 to FMP-1, or through Wellpad B.
Recommendations
To ensure that enclosed areas such as the Control Building, Laboratory, etc
are provided with more than one exit from the areas.
To ensure that two separate stairs are provided as far as possible in the
enclosed areas, along with proper safety signs showing the exit points and
escape directions.
The primary escape route is through Gate 1 and Gate 2 at the east side of
Wellpad A. In the event this primary escape route is impaired, personnel could
escape via any emergency gate around the wellpad to escape to FMP-A.
Wellpad A Recommendations
It is recommended that the all normally-closed gates are locked to the outside,
and opened on the inside by a push-bar, ensuring they are readily accessible
for personnel working in Wellpad A. It is also recommended that all operations
personnel in Wellpad A hold the keys for all the personnel emergency gates.
The primary escape route is through Gate 1 at the southwest side of the
wellpad. In the event the primary escape route is impaired, personnel could
escape from the wellpad through any emergency gate, which are normally-
closed, including Gate 2 at the northeast side of the wellpad.
Wellpad B Recommendations
It is recommended that the normally-closed gates are locked to the outside,
and opened on the inside by a push-bar, ensuring it is readily accessible for
personnel working in Wellpad B. It is also recommended that all operations
personnel in Wellpad B hold the keys for all the personnel emergency gates.
The primary escape route is through Gate 1 and the normally-closed gates at
the north and east sides of the wellpad. In the event the primary escape route
is impaired, personnel could escape from the wellpad through any emergency
gate, which are normally-closed.
Wellpad C Recommendations
It is recommended that all normally-closed gates at are locked to the outside,
and opened on the inside by a push-bar, ensuring they are readily accessible
for personnel working in Wellpad C. It is also recommended that all operations
personnel in Wellpad C hold the keys for all the personnel emergency gates.
In the event of an emergency, personnel are expected to inform the location of the emergency to the
Emergency Response Team Leader. Subsequently, the Emergency Response Team Leader will
inform every personnel in the facility the location of the emergency. As such, personnel are expected
to avoid using the escape route, where the emergency event is located.
Small to medium release jet fires could potentially cause localised impairment to escape routes close
2
to source of fire. However, the 4 kW/m thermal radiation contours from these fires are not expected
to impair any egress point, and hence personnel are expected to be able to escape the CPF in the
event of a small to medium release jet fires.
Jet Fire Scenarios in Wellpads
Similar to the jet fire assessment for the CPF, the escape route impairment assessment due to jet fire
scenarios in the wellpads was conducted with results from Isolatable Section 12-C and 12-F.
2
Due to the 4 kW/m thermal radiation contour size and depending on the direction of the jet fire, large
release jet fire could impair the primary escape routes in Wellpads A, B and C. However, personnel
could use alternative escape routes to escape to the muster points. Personnel in the affected area
could also take shelter at the substations before escaping to the muster points.
The substations in the wellpads are prefabricated. The exterior walls of the substations are
constructed with insulated crimped composite steel plate panels. The steel plate forming the panels
are not less than 2 mm thick. It is assumed that personnel could take shelter in the substation, where
2
they would be shielded from the 4 kW/m thermal radiation, until the fire depressurises and personnel
could proceed to escape. Moreover, the substations in the wellpads are provided with HVAC.
However, it is only personnel who are unable to escape to the muster area and are close to the
substations are expected to take cover in the substations. Otherwise, personnel are expected to
continue escaping and to muster at the nearest muster area.
Medium release jet fires in the wellpads could potentially cause localised impairment to escape routes
close to source of fire. However, small release jet fires are not expected to cause impairment to the
escape routes.
Pool Fire Scenarios in CPF
2
Pool fire thermal radiation of 4 kW/m is taken as the impairment criteria for escape routes (refer to
Appendix A - Assumption Sheet A2). Based on the pool fire thermal radiation generated from the Fire
Hazard Assessment [1], there will be sections that could impair egress points in the CPF, as
presented below:
Table 5.4: Potential Egress Point Impairment in CPF from Pool Fire Scenarios
Sect. Release
Section Description Representative Equipment Impaired Egress Point
No. Hole Size
Crude Storage – Area
5 Crude Oil Storage Tanks L Main Gate 2
C01200
6 Crude Export – Area C01200 Crude Oil Shipping Pumps L Main Gate 2
2
When the egress point is impaired by radiation of 4 kW/m , personnel are not able to escape the
facility as planned. As such, alternative escape routes as discussed in Table 5.2 in Section 5.3.2
could be used as there is no simultaneous impairment expected on the two (2) egress points.
Pool Fire Scenarios in Wellpads
Pool fire scenarios in the wellpads are not expected to impair the primary escape routes due to the
2
size of the 4 kW/m thermal radiation contour. Thus, the primary escape routes in the wellpads are
safe from pool fire thermal radiation.
Explosion Scenarios in CPF
The impairment criteria of 0.35 bar from explosion overpressure is utilised to assess the failure of
escape routes when subjected to overpressure. Based on the CPF Explosion Study report [2], the
worst scenario is liquid release from the HP Production Separator (Isolatable Section 2) from large
leak hole, which has a distance of 83.62 m radius of 0.35 bar overpressure, and this will only affect a
certain area of the facility. Personnel could escape to the FMPs via alternative escape routes.

Despite the severe consequences from toxic gas release in the CPF, wind direction factor has yet to
be taken into account. In other words, it is unlikely for the toxic gas to simultaneously impair all egress
points in the CPF. Furthermore, H2S release durations above are less than 15 minutes, which is less
than the duration of the Self-Contained Breathing Apparatus (SCBA) and escape packs can sustain
[20].
Should toxic gas release be detected, the Emergency Response Team Leader will be able to assess
the wind direction via the wind socks available, and announce the safest escape route available for
personnel to escape. Crosswind is always the initial escape direction until the location of the released
can be confirmed. However, upwind is the preferred escape direction only after the personnel is
already upwind of the release point.
Based on the Gas Dispersion Study results [3], H2S release at concentration of 100 ppm from the
CPF could reach as far as 3000 m towards Wellpad A, B and C. In that event, the Emergency
Response Team Leader will inform personnel in the affected CPF area and wellpads to don the
SCBAs or escape packs immediately to assist their escape. The SCBAs and escape packs that are
available in the facility are sufficient for all personnel. It is recommended to conduct frequent training
to familiarise the use of SCBAs and escape packs.
Note that SCBAs are also provided for use during line opening and sample taking activities. These
SCBAs will be connected to the Air Ringmain and Breathing Air Connection provided in the areas
below:
• Area S: Produced Water Treatment Area.
• Area V: Crude Oil Storage and Transfer Area.
• Area X: Flare Knock Out and Closed Drain Area.
Upon sounding of alarm, personnel are expected to disconnect their SCBAs from the air ringmain and
proceed to the nearest muster area.
H2S at 100 ppm in the wellpads could have downwind distance of more than 3000 m from the leak
source. Only large leak hole size releases contribute to radius of more than 3000 m. In that event,
similar to the CPF, the Emergency Response Team Leader will inform personnel in the affected areas
to don the SCBAs or escape packs immediately to assist their escape.
Despite the severe consequences from toxic gas release in the wellheads, wind direction factor has
yet to be taken into account. In other words, it is unlikely for the toxic gas to simultaneously impair all
egress points in the wellheads. The wind sock provided at each wellpad could assist personnel in the
affected wellpad to assess the wind direction, to enable personnel to take the safest escape route, i.e.
upwind from the leak source. Moreover, the H2S release duration is shorter than the duration of the
SCBA or escape pack can sustain.
Drainage System
Integrated drainage system is installed around the CPF and the wellpads for storm water. This
drainage system is properly covered unless it is outside the defined escape route [13]. Therefore, the
uncovered ditches pose a tripping/falling hazard to personnel.
The uncovered drain is of Type A and Type E. The widths of these drains are 300 mm and 700 mm
respectively; whereas the depth is between 500 mm and 1000 mm. The dimensions of these types of
drains are illustrated in Appendix E.01. Uncovered opening of 300 mm or 700 mm could potentially be
a hazard for personnel especially during an emergency event.
Drains within the CPF and the wellpads that are Type A and Type E are recommended to be covered
to prevent any unwanted injury.
Despite drains with large opening (width < 1500 mm) such as Type I, J and K exist, these drains can
only be found near the CPF fence. Due to the location of these types of drains, it is less likely for
personnel to fall into these drains. However, sign boards are proposed to be set up around these
drains to prevent any unwanted injury.
• Personnel may only remove the SCBAs or escape packs when they reach the FMP safely,
provided H2S is not detected by the portable H2S detector that the core personnel is carrying.
• Ensure that Type A and Type E drains, where human and vehicle access are located, are
covered.

Note 1
Wellpad C 40.6 and 41.3
Note 1: Escape time to reach FMP-C1 and FMP-C2 respectively.
Based on Table 5.7, personnel in Zone 2 require the most time to escape to the FMP-2. The farthest
point from Zone 2 to FMP-2 is from Area T (C00900). The total estimated escape time is 49.9
minutes.
Personnel would not be able to muster at the allocated FMPs should H2S leak from the sections listed
above. Despite it possible to have both FMP-1 and FMP-2 impaired simultaneously, the possibility is
rare if wind directional factor is taken into account. Moreover, H2S release durations above are less
than 15 minutes, which is less than the duration of the Self-Contained Breathing Apparatus (SCBA)
and escape packs can sustain [20]. Personnel will continue to evacuate until a safe, gas-free area is
reached.
The provision of wind socks in the CPF could also assist the Emergency Response Team Leader to
determine the wind direction and to advice personnel to escape and muster in the upwind direction of
the release point. However, evacuating personnel are expected to observe the wind direction and
make correct evacuation decision based on local conditions.
Note that H2S release at concentration of 10 ppm from the CPF could reach as far as 14000 m
towards Wellpad A, B and C. In that event, the Emergency Response Team Leader will inform
personnel in the affected wellpads to don the SCBAs or escape packs immediately to assist their
escape and muster.
Toxic Gas Dispersion Scenarios in Wellpads
Table 5.9: Summary of FMP Impairment due to H2S release from Wellpads
Concentration of H2S at 10 ppm could reach downwind distance of more than 14000 m from the leak
source. In that event, similar to the CPF, the Emergency Response Team Leader will inform
personnel in the affected areas to don the SCBAs or escape packs immediately to assist their escape
and muster.
Although the results in the table above indicate that several FMPs could be impaired simultaneously
by H2S release from the wellpads, wind direction factor has yet to be taken into account. It is unlikely
for the toxic gas to simultaneously impair all FMPs in the wellheads. Personnel will continue to
evacuate, while observing the wind direction and escape and muster in the upwind direction of the
release point, until a safe and gas-free area is reached.
• Emergency Response Team Leader informs MEDIVAC Team if H2S gas is detected.
• MEDIVAC Team to be equipped with SCBA/escape packs and portable H2S detector.
Sect. No. Section Description Release Hole Size Release Duration (mins)
Emergency Response Team Leader is recommended to inform all personnel during evacuation in the
event H2S gas release is detected. As personnel are carrying their individual H2S detectors, SCBAs or
escape packs will be donned as soon as H2S is detected (refer to Appendix A - Assumption Sheet
A6). And since large toxic release duration is less than 10 minutes, escape packs are sufficient to
keep them safe while they are evacuating the facility. This enhances the survivability of personnel
during evacuation.
6.1 Conclusions
Based on the assessment performed above, the conclusion could be drawn as below:
• The Alarm Goal (Goal 1) is met and the other goals can be met by conditions. These goals
are the Escape Goal (Goal 2), Muster Goal (Goal 3), Decision to Evacuate Goal (Goal 4),
Medical Rescue Goal (Goal 5) and Evacuation Goal (Goal 6).
Recommendations are proposed to further enhance and meet the goals.

• Escape routes and Field Muster Points are assumed to be impaired when exposed to radiation
2
level over than 4 kW/m [1]. Personnel exposed to this level of radiation may experience
significant injury to unprotected skin within 20 seconds of exposure [1].
• Equipment and structure may be damaged by explosion overpressure and the falling structures
may obstruct escape route. An overpressure of 0.35 bar is used as the impairment criteria to
assess the failure of escape routes and muster areas when subjected to explosion overpressure
[1].
• H2S concentration of 100 ppm [2] and above is assumed to be able to impair the escape routes.
• Even though the TLV for H2S is 5 ppm, 10 ppm is taken as the impairment criteria for muster
points as the CFF Gas Dispersion Study [3] only provides the results of H2S release at 10 ppm,
100 ppm, 500 ppm and 1000 ppm.
