Purpose
TDWs Commitment
TDWs Commitment to Quality: At TDW, quality means understanding customer needs with a focus on meeting their requirements without error, on time, every time. As an organization, we anticipate and respond to the maintenance needs of owners and operators of pressurized piping systems worldwide. By dedicating the resources necessary, our organization commits to making Quality an integral part of our business operating practices. This plan establishes the Qualification requirements for TDW technicians to perform covered tasks on pipeline facilities according to rigorous TDW quality standards. TDW has maintained a rigorous Technician Qualification program for many years. All TDW technicians are currently qualified. Note: TDW is a contractor, not a pipeline owner/operator and cannot by law qualify TDW technicians. TDW trusts that domestic pipeline owner/operators will accept the TDW Qualification Program and reference their acceptance.
1.2
This plan meets all Department of Transportation (DOT) Research and Special Program Administration Regulations in adherence to the Pipeline Safety Act of 1992 and the accountable Pipeline Safety and Partnership Act of 1996. This plan has been prepared to meet the minimum requirements specified in 49 CFR Part 192, Subpart N, and 49 CFR Part 195, Subpart G. This plan also follows the Operator Qualification Inspection Protocol guidelines.
1.3
This plan meets all the requirements required for Operator Qualification by the following government entities: State of Illinois Commercial Code Pipeline Safety Regulations Title 83 Chapter 1 SubChapter D Gas Utilities Part 52a.
1.4
ISO 9000
This plan meets policy and procedural requirements of TDW Quality Management Systems, which meets or exceeds ISO 9001: 2008 Quality Management standard requirements for employee training programs. These procedures include identification of training needs, development of the training plan, verification of conformance to regulatory, market and organizational requirements, training, documentation of training received and evaluation of the training.
1.5
ASME B31Q
This plan uses the ASME B31Q Personnel Qualification Standard as guidance material.

Scope
This plan will assure pipeline operators who contract with TDW for covered task services that TDW field technicians are trained in the classroom, tested and observed in simulated and live situations, and have documented all subcontract records meeting DOT Operator Qualification requirements and the highest standards in the domestic and international pipeline industry. This plan became effective April 27, 2001, and applies to both initial qualification of trainees and subsequent qualification of veteran technicians. Revisions are noted on the cover page.

Overview
TDW field technicians receive extensive, on-the-job training, including classroom training, hands-on training and testing during their trainee status. Trainees also accompany and observe live jobs conducted by Qualified Technicians. This on-the-job training process is covered by the appropriate Knowledge/Skills Inventory Form. Each entry is approved by a Manager / Supervisor, Qualified Technician or Technical Services Personnel. Trainees and TDW field technicians attend mandatory technicians schools. Provided by TDW, these schools are formal and rigorous, and include technical product and methodology updates. Re-qualification / evaluation is conducted when expirations are near and follows the same requirements of initial qualification.
4.4
This process is documented, on-the-job training, under the supervision of a Qualified Technician and management. This process includes the following: 1. Equipment operating capability 2. Field training 3. Equipment knowledge 4. Covered task procedures (See Appendix 1) 5. Prevention of accidental ignition of gas (See Appendix 3) 6. Recognition of Abnormal Operating Conditions (See Appendix 2) 7. Safety training (See Appendix 6) Oral and written tests are administered throughout the process in a proctored and controlled environment. See specific forms in Appendix 6 for each Technician level on specific equipment and situations. These forms indicate the progressive equipment and application requirements for each level.
4.5
This process is conducted under the direction of Technical Services Management, the Global Training Manager and the Pipeline Services Management Team. Typical sessions include the following components: 1. Classroom instruction: Includes basic equipment operation, procedural and technical updates, specific applications and Abnormal Operating Conditions and Safety Training.

The United States Department of Transportation, in adherence to the Pipeline Safety Act of 1992 and the accountable Pipeline Safety and Partnership Act of 1996, requires maintenance personnel to recognize and react properly to abnormal operating conditions. Abnormal operating conditions are defined as a pipeline condition identified by the operator that may indicate a component malfunction, or a deviation from normal operations. The malfunction or deviation may: 1. 2. Indicate a condition exceeding design limits; or Result in a hazard(s) to persons, property, or the environment.
TDW technicians should recognize the following conditions as being abnormal: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. 11. 12. 13. Apparent unplanned release of a pipeline fluid (gas or liquid). T.D. Williamson hot tapping and plugging equipment is designed to contain pressurized products. Fire or explosion. Obvious misalignment of the equipment attached to the pipeline facility (fittings, valves, adapters, tapping machines, plugging machines, clamps, etc.). Out-of-date elastomers. Malfunction of the equipment or fittings attached to the pipeline facility. Presence of pipeline pressures exceeding the design limits of the fittings or equipment. Unplanned flow rates. Obvious physical damage to equipment or the pipeline facility. Activation of safety devices. Unplanned status (start up, shut down, open valves, etc.). Interruption of communication. Inadequate odorization of gas or reports of odor. Actual pipeline conditions differ from information on technicians job info sheet.
When abnormal operating conditions exist, the Technician shall: 1. 2. 3. 4. Stop operations and inform project site manager. Follow safety regulations and procedures agreed to with the Pipeline Operator prior to the operation. Take appropriate corrective actions. Inform project site manager and stop working on his portion of the job if the above steps have not corrected the condition.
TDW Services Technicians are trained to recognize abnormal operating conditions. Detailed information on Abnormal Operating Conditions is contained in TDW Services training materials for specific machines and applications.
19
TDW technicians are evaluated with NCCER AOC General #AOC FIELD and with Prevention of Accidental Ignition of Gas. TDW technicians are trained with a complete Health, Safety and Environmental Package.
20
TDW Services training is based on TDW CT50 and EWEBOQ materials for Prevention of Accidental Ignition of Gas Modules.

This is a checklist that each technician should follow prior to conducting the actual event of launching or receiving a pipeline pig. STEP Completed Verify the location and position of all valves that are connected to the pig trap that will be used during the launching/receiving process. Notify operations that a pig launching/receiving event is beginning to take place and receive verification to proceed. Verify pipeline pressure and pressure contained in launcher/receiver. Verify appropriate type fire extinguisher is readily accessible in case of accident. Verify personnel are wearing appropriate safety equipment. Verify pig to be used is of right type and in working condition. Verify safety meeting is conducted with all those involved in process. Verify with operations that flow rates and pressures are sufficient to launch and move pig through pipeline. Verify pig indicators are in working condition and in reset mode. If appropriate, verify pig tracking equipment is in working condition. Conduct launch or receive procedure according to the design sequence of the launcher or receiver facility.
