➢ FIRE PREVENTION AND PROTECTION PROGRAM

This guide covers the organizational, individual roles and activities of personnel tasked with specific
responsibilities about the establishment and maintenance of a Fire Prevention / Protection and Fire
Fighting Plan as per CSM I-7 (FIRE PREVENTION).
The construction site is surrounded by several chemical & or refinery plants, which are operational,
requires careful planning and vigilant execution of potentially hazardous activities. An incident at a
construction site may cause direct or indirect negative consequences, sometimes seriously affecting the
operational activities of nearby oil/gas plants and vice versa. It is therefore imperative to define, identify
and analyze all potential risks and to find and implement necessary preventative measures.
The Fire Prevention and Protection Plan shall be applicable to CONTRACTOR involved at the project
and it shall cover types, nature and severity of project fire and fire related risks. Also, the types, nature
and severity of potential hazards, which may cause risk either through direct or indirect exposure to the
project activities by neighboring chemical and or other plant.
Contractor’s Business Vision, Safety Mission and Project Management Policy and Objectives are based
on the following but do not exclude any other relevant preventative management elements, actions or
duties not mentioned in this document.
❖ Plant Fire Safety Requirements
▪ Fire prevention and firefighting training of personnel.
▪ Magnitude of hot work during construction.
▪ Number and size of warehouse facilities lay down yards and temporary offices
▪ Number, size and location of all flammable material storage facilities, fuel / gas and other
combustible.
▪ Call out procedure and emergency telephone numbers of CONTRACTOR and JIGPC.

Reporting emergencies within Saudi Aramco shall be by dialing telephone 110. The reporting protocol
sequence when transmitting a message by telephone, radio or messenger shall be as follows:
▪ Say this is an emergency
▪ Exact location (e.g., plant, building or house number
▪ Nature of the emergency (e.g., fire, explosion or gas release).
▪ Type of service required
▪ Number of injured personnel
 ▪ Telephone number you are calling from
▪ Caller’s name and badge number.
Note: Stay on the telephone or radio until told to hang up. Repeat the message if asked to do so. If
possible, post a lookout to direct the ambulance, fire truck, helicopter or other response vehicle to the
right location.
❖ Fire Prevention
The facility layout and construction shall be done in such a manner as to ensure the following safety
measures are considered:
▪ Oil filled electrical transformers to be at least 15 meters away from buildings.
Diesel-electric generators and diesel supply tanks to be at least 15 meters away from buildings.
▪ Primary power distribution panels are obstruction free and at least 15 meters away from any
flammable / combustible materials or appropriately insulated.
▪ No flammable liquid / gas storage facility shall be positioned closer than 15 meters from such building.
▪ Workshops where any hot work is to be done shall not be built nearer than 15 meters from any
temporary office building without a proper designed and installed “Firewall” between such building
and workshop.
▪ No welding activity shall be done on any part of the superstructure of a temporary office once it is
completed.
▪ Fluorescent lights in temporary offices shall be of type that mounted on the ceiling.

the following:
▪ Prevent accumulation of vegetative growth and combustible materials underneath the building
▪ Avoid usage of the space underneath the building as storage area.
❖ Hot Work
Prior to do any hot work (welding, chipping, grinding, blasting, and other spark causing operations) being
done on the area, which has possibility to contained flammable or explosive materials, all existing

connecting lines must be checked and if possible to disconnected and blanked off, work permit must be
obtained and gas testing must be done as per GI 2.100, GI 2.709 CSM II-10 (CUTTING, WELDING &
BRAZING)
Most petroleum vapors are heavier than air (ethane and above hydrocarbons). With only a small quantity
of product in the area it is possible to have a blanket of explosive mixture at the bottom although the top
tests clear and safe. The test must be made through an open manhole or some other shell fitting at the
bottom and then through some opening in the roof. Be sure that there is no danger while performing the
work. As per CSM I-7 (FIRE PREVENTION)
During hot work operations, adjacent operating vessel(s) pose a potential fire hazard if emergency
pressure vents release gas or vapors in sufficient quantities. To prevent this from becoming a fire, the
Company, CONTRACTOR will monitor the atmosphere at grade level every 2 hours or more frequent
for % LEL. As per GI 2.709
In addition, visual observation of adjacent vessel(s) pressure relief vents will be performed routinely, and
JIGPC Operations will be requested to notify the CONTRACTOR in the event the pressure inside the
adjacent vessel(s) is within 15% of venting pressure. CONTRACTOR will stop all hot work operations
when notified. Fire watch must be trained and certified by Saudi Aramco approved 3rd party training
institution.
❖ Equipment Protection
Some equipment needs special handling and care after they arrive on site and until they are
commissioned. Examples are computer (and other electronic instrumentation and control gear) and large
pumps and compressors. Such equipment should be covered and protected against possible damage
that could result from its exposure to normal construction activity such as dust, paint, spray, etc.
Consideration should also be given to protecting it against fire, which could be caused by storing it near
combustible material and against water or other firefighting agents that might be used to put out fires in
its proximity
❖ Control of Ignition Sources
