1. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
This report presents the results of the detailed HSES Risk Assessment Workshop undertaken by
Ammico to identify the expected hazards concurrent with the Earthworks during the construction
of the Qatar Shell GTL (Gas To Liquids) tank farms at the GTL Complex and at the harbour
area. The methodology adopted for the workshop reviewed the processes involved and
identified the hazards. From these hazards the risk levels were calculated using the Hazard and
Effects Management Process (HEMP) Shell Risk Assessment Matrix (HEMP). The workshop
was undertaken in October 2007 at the Ammico offices in Doha. The Risk Assessment
Workshop was dedicated to identifying at an early stage potential health, safety and
environmental hazards and calculating their risks prior to commencing the earthworks for the
tank bases and other earthworks required by CB&I. From this a HSES Risk Register has been
developed (See Section 3)
Timely identification of associated risks enables the identification of the medium and high risk
activities so that either alternative methods of working can be found and if alternatives cannot be
found or, as can be the case, cost v. level of risk is out of proportion then appropriate personal
protective equipment (PPE) can be sourced.
The measures are aimed at removing and reducing the hazard, and identifying any further needs
to incorporate protective systems to render all risks to the level of As Low As Reasonably
Practicable (ALARP).
2. INTRODUCTION
2.1 Overview of the Pearl Project

The Pearl GTL (gas to liquids) Project development is an integrated offshore and
onshore development, by Qatar Shell GTL Ltd., in the State of Qatar. The onshore
Project area is located at Ras Laffan Industrial City (RLC) on the north-east coast of
the Qatar State. Hydrocarbons (gas and fluids) are produced from an offshore
location, without processing or treatment, and piped to an onshore 2-train GTL
Complex. The GTL Complex is further ascribed as “on-site”, and it processes the
piped hydrocarbons into the main fuels, naphtha, gas oil and kerosene; and the site
produces separation products such as LDF (Light Detergent Feedstock) and base oils.
The GTL Complex also produces off-spec hydrocarbons, such as cold and hot slops,
and sour slops, resulting from processing the produced hydrocarbons. The GTL
Complex contains a tank farm that provides for storing these hydrocarbons and off-
spec products within tanks located in bunds. The main fuels stored on the tank farm
are subsequently run-down to tanks located within the “off-site” harbour area, for
subsequent piping to ships berthed at a jetty in the RLC harbour. In contrast to the
main fuels, the LDF and the base oils are rundown directly to ships at the harbour jetty.
The GTL Complex is equipped with 31 tanks for storing hydrocarbons and there is one
additional tank used for storing HTF (Heat Transfer Fluid).
The harbour tank farm area is about 15 km from the GTL Complex and 5 km from the
harbour jetty. The harbour area provides storage for 6 tanks; three of which store
kerosene, gas oil and naphtha. Of the remaining 3 tanks, one stores fire-water; there is
a dedicated tank for distillate slops (a mixture of kerosene and gas oil obtained when
changing over the loading of these two products) and the remaining tank stores
disulphide oil (DSO), an off-spec product produced in the GTL process areas. A
chemical cargo ship exports the DSO. Distillate slops is piped back to the GTL tank
farm cold slops tanks.

10010-000-HM-P18-0001 Rev 2
The diameter of the GTL and harbour areas storage tanks is variable and ranges from
about 30 metres to 72 metres. Tank bund walls range from 3 to 4 metres in height.
3. THE RISK ASSESSMENT PROCEDURE AND PARTICIPANTS
3.1 Workshop Participants

The Ammico Risk Assessment Workshop was held at Ammico offices in Doha, in
October 2007. Table 1 provides details of the attendees and their affiliations.

3.2 Risk Workshop Approach

The purpose of the workshop is to identify at an early stage the major Safety and
Environmental Hazards associated with the construction of the offsite and harbour
areas tank farms. The output of the study allows for enabling and taking timely
decisions to identify the hazard, and associated risks be either changing work
practices/processes or reduce the level of risk by providing suitable protective systems.
The output of the study also addresses any needs for carrying out further risk
assessment studies.
The Risk Assessment Workshop methodology was complemented with a refined
checklist that aimed at evoking discussion on potential various hazards, their controls,
and the persons responsible for ensuring any identified mitigating actions are carried
out to reduce the risk to the level of ALARP (As Low As Reasonably Practicable).
Table 2 shows the checklist used during the Risk Assessment Workshop. The
Workshop started with participant introductions and an overview of the Pearl GTL
Project, Qatar. The introduction was followed by a systematic review, in descending
order, of the items included in the checklist of guidewords shown in Table 2.
