be given to any scope-specific or location-specific factors that may need to be incorporated
into this HSSE Bridging Document to ensure alignment with all contract requirements.

1 Set Interfacing Policy/Objectives
The Management of Health, Safety, Security and the Environment requires a coordinated effort
between participating companies. As specified by Section IV, Sub-section 4, a HSSE Bridging
Document between the COMPANY´S HSSE requirements and the CONTRACTOR´S HSSE-MS
is required, to show how CONTRACTOR will work to manage operating risks related to the
scope of the WORK.
BP Group Recommended Practice (GRP) for Working with CONTRACTORS (GRP 2.5-0001,
5.6.2 I) states that no CONTRACT should be executed until interfacing arrangements are in
place.
A standard model for preparing interface documents has been developed in the Step
Change/UKOOA Guidance for Health, Safety and Environmental Management Systems
Interfacing. This document is the COMPANY’S interpretation of this, and emphasises the
COMPANY´S Operating Management System (“OMS”). The interface guidance must be read in
conjunction with the terms of the CONTRACT between COMPANY and CONTRACTOR,
which shall have primacy.
The HSSE Bridging Document shall be subject to a process of confirmation of effectiveness and
to periodic review and update in order to ensure continuing suitability; these activities shall be
conducted in a manner agreed by the parties involved.
The final documented HSSE Bridging Document shall be a live document, which serves as a
working reference of the controls to be implemented in the performance of a CONTRACT.
CONTRACTOR will fully follow the BP HSSE Policy and SSOW. In this connection we
are committed to: Expect all personnel to demonstrate commitment to safety and
environmental protection, performance and compliance; Manage HSE performance in
compliance with the expectations of the Section IV (currently Section 6 in existing RO
service contract) management system; Inform our employees, contractors, partners and
the public of relevant HSE aspects of our operations. CONTRACTOR shall be familiar
with and abide by BP’s Golden Rules of Safety provided as Attachment 1 hereto.
No task is so important that we cannot take time to plan and implement it in a safe and
environmentally responsible manner.
Health, Safety, Security and Environmental (“HSSE”) objectives have equal status with other
business objectives, and are stated in the following COMPANY policies:
Group Defined Practice for the Assessment, Prioritisation and Management of Risk
Group Defined Practice for Environmental and Social Requirements for New Projects
5
Group Recommended Practice for Management of Change
COMPANY does not expect CONTRACTOR to adopt OMS. It is the responsibility of the
CONTRACTOR to adopt and operate whatever management system and standards are
appropriate for its business and activities. However, where COMPANY relies on
CONTRACTOR to carry out WORK, COMPANY will, as needed, include and apply
CONTRACT provisions such that the WORK is carried out in a way that supports and is
consistent with COMPANY’S application of OMS to COMPANY’S operating activities.
Good HSSE performance is critical to the success of all operations. Our goal is to ensure our
activities cause:
No accidents
No harm to people
COMPANY and CONTRACTOR’S leadership will co-operate on leading and engaging the
PERSONNEL in meeting HSSE requirements, goals and objectives, conducting regular site visits
and implementing safety improvement programmes.
CONTRACTOR’S leaders will demonstrate correct HSSE behaviours, clearly define HSSE roles
and responsibilities, provide needed resources and will work together to ensure full compliance
with applicable international and local legislation and conformance with COMPANY Local OMS
(LOMS)
