Directorate HSE Team for visit of Circular Appointed Employees within that asset /

directorate. The schedule will include the site visit frequency as well as brief

information about facilities / worksites to be covered during the visit. However the

number of site visits per month for CAE shall be decided within Asset / Directorate

depending upon resources (numbers of CAEs) and locations to be visited.

SVV Schedule for NCAE: It is a monthly schedule prepared by respective Controlling

Team for the visit of their Non - Circular Appointed Employees who are responsible to

manage those facilities / projects under the Team’s jurisdiction. The schedule will

include the site visit frequency as well as brief information about facilities / worksites to

be covered during the visit. However the number of site visits per month for NCAE

shall be decided within the respective Team depending upon resources (numbers of

5.0 Site Verification Visit Process

5.1 Scheduling of Site Verification Visit

The monthly schedule of site verification visit for Circular Appointed Employees within

Asset / Directorate shall be prepared by respective HSE Team. Such schedule will

specify the Visitor(s), location to be visited and brief information about project /

operational related activities at site. The sample format for CAE site visit schedule is

enclosed as Appendix - 1 of this procedure.

The frequency of such visit will be made taking into account each facility and

contractor’s worksite (including rig site & well surveillance site) in the respective Asset /

Directorate. The number of site visits per month shall be decided within Asset /

Directorate depending upon resources (numbers of visitors) and locations to be visited.




As a general guideline 80% of SVVs by CAEs to be carried out within their own

directorate whereas balance 20% should be done in other Directorate. However such

distribution should apply when all worksites within their own Directorate are covered in

SVV schedule. Moreover for directorate with large number of contractor worksites /

facilities, 80%-20% ratio may be applied inter group wise within the directorate.

Similarly if the number of worksites / facilities are less in any particular Directorate,

then 80% - 20% ratio can be suitably modified with due justifications.

In case the scheduled site visit cannot be accomplished by the assigned visitor due to

extreme commitments; then he / she may pre-pone / post-pone the visit in due

consultation with respective Asset Owner / Controlling Team or alternately it may be

delegated to his / her subordinate or to other visitor through mutual agreement.

However every effort will be made by both CAE as well as NCAE to adhere with the

scheduled visit program.

5.2 Site Verification Visit

The visitor shall carry out site visit for the specific location indicated in the visit

schedule. The exact date of the site visit shall be agreed between the Visitor and the

respective Asset Owner / Project Controlling Team for the site to be visited.

During such site visit program; C&MD will be assisted by Corporate HSE Group for

coordination, onsite observation record & preparation of report on behalf of visitor.

Similarly each DMD shall be assisted by respective asset / directorate HSE Team for

coordination, observation record and preparation of report on behalf of the visitor.

Additionally Contractors are to be encouraged to schedule & conduct SVVs internally

at their worksites, in case they do not have similar site verification program.

5.3 Site Verification Visit Observation

The observation during site verification visit shall be focused to issues enlisted in the

specific checklist for CAE or NCAE as applicable. Such observations may reflect the

onsite key personnel’s throughput on high risk issues and its control measures. The

observation made by the visitor during such visit shall be recorded in the respective

sample checklist enclosed as Appendices of this procedure.

Based on HSE good practices observed & upon satisfactory HSE awareness level

amongst workers at site, the visitor can suggest rewarding those KOC or Contractor

employee(s) for their good HSE Performance. For such situation HSE Incentive

Program for KOC & Contractor Employees available with Asset / Directorate HSE

Team may be referred. Additionally certificate of appreciation may be issued to

selected employee(s) as an encouragement recognizing safe working practices and

good HSE behaviours.

5.4 Site Verification Visit Report

The HSE site visit report containing the observation made by the visitor shall be issued to

the concerned Asset Owner / Project Controlling Team within 3 working days. The site

visit report shall be concise and to the point indicating the strengths, gaps and corrective

measures (if any) to be taken. The site verification visit report for CAE shall be maintained

at HSE Live portal for convenient access and reference. However SVV Report for NCAE

will be managed manually by the visitor at their Team level until further enhancements

are made in HSE Live to host those reports online. A guideline for SVV reporting is

attached as Appendix – VI in this document.




5.5 Follow – up Action

The follow – up of all site verification visit report shall be carried by respective asset /

directorate HSE Team till the closure of action items within stipulated time period. The
