1. Overview

This manual describes how Health and Safety is implemented in RLC. The Management of RLC recognizes the importance of effective Health and Safety Management and in order to demonstrate their commitment, RLC will further develop and

implement pro-active Health and Safety practices in compliance with relevant legislation and Industrial requirements.

In achieving these objectives all Employees and contractors are informed of their roles and responsibilities, are being trained, resources being made available and are actively involved in support of the Ras Laffan Occupational Health and Safety

Management system.

Ras Laffan Industrial City (RLIC), a Directorate of Qatar Petroleum, is a multipurpose industrial city is located 80 kilometers north east of Doha; the city hosts an industrial port and several industrial facilities and covers an area of 294 square kilometers.

It provides integrated services to existing industries and prospective investors

Ras Laffan Industrial City has direct access to the North Field, which was discovered in 1971. The North Gas Field covers an area of some 6,000 square kilometres and is considered to be the largest single non-associated gas reservoir in the world with total reserves of approximately 900 trillion cubic feet.

The location of Ras Laffan Industrial City was selected for many reasons, mainly for its close access to the North Field, its location in the center of the Arabian Gulf on the international shipping routes, and because it can accommodate a wide-scale development of the industrial city in the future.

The QP directorate operates an industrial port and provides integrated services as well as several industrial facilities to existing industries and prospective investors. The facilities include modern infrastructure, common cooling seawater, waste management, fire stations, and environmental laboratory and support services such as healthcare, security, emergency response, transportation, accommodation, and telecommunication.

RLIC is situated along the north east coast of Qatar and is one of the fastest growing industrial cities in the world. It is located about 80 kilometres from Qatar’s North Field, which is the world’s largest single non associated gas field with approximately 900 trillion cubic feet of proven reserves. RLIC spans 248 square kilometres, which includes the southern reserve zone - reserved for possible future projects.

RLC Port Ras Laffan Port is the largest LNG exporting facility in the world, with an area of 8.5 square kilometres. The port operates a port control tower and associated navigational aids, logistics, and services that include berthing facilities, security, safety, and workshops. The port is enclosed by six LNG berths forming the main breakwater (six kilometres long). The lee breakwater, which is five kilometres long, accommodates six operational liquid product berths. These berths provide the highest margin of safety for ships entering through the main entrance channel. The port has wide berths to accommodate ships of international sizes including the super LNG carriers QMAX and QFLEX.

The Port is undergoing expansion as per the 2006 Master Plan recommendations to cater for expansion up to the year 2030. A new 10.5-kilometer long Northern breakwater has been built, encompassing the existing main breakwater. The new 10.5-kilometer southern breakwater has also been constructed, about 4.5 kilometres south of the existing lee breakwater. There is a one-kilometre offshore breakwater between the two new north and south breakwaters. The existing approach channel has been named the North Channel and widened to 400 meters. A new 400- meter South Channel dredged to 15 meters provides entry to the southern area of the expanded port.

The expanded port area has increased to 56 square kilometres and will be able to accommodate around 225 million tons of products per year, embracing additional LNG and liquid berths, dry dock facilities, container berth, oil rig support, as well as a dry cargo berth for petrochemicals. The berths will be built on an incremental basis, with provision for at least the next 20 years.

Common Cooling Water System

The Common Cooling Water System (CCWS), a QP owned Project built on “economies of scale and synergies”, supplies cooling seawater to various industries within RLC. The Common Cooling Water System (CCWS) is operated by RLC Common Seawater Facility (CSF) under RLC Operations Department. The CCWS is vital for the uninterrupted operation of all the industries located inside the Industrial City and is built with 100% throughput availability.

Total capacity of CCWS upon completion of all the phases will be 1166,000 m3 per hour.

Backup Firewater System

Along with the Phase 1 Project of the Common Cooling Water System, a dedicated Firewater Network was built by QP across RLC, it is being extended to the Condensate Tank Farm Area through the Phase II Expansion Project. This Network serves as the secondary or the Back-up Fire fighting system, and is available to all the Industries on complimentary basis. Backup Firewater System uses Seawater as Firewater.

Desalinated water Network

The Desalinated water Network was built by QP in order to provide the common Network to distribute the Desalinated water supplied by Kahramaa to various End User Industries located at RLC. Desalinated water is a very crucial utility for plants operation of the RLC Industries. Desalinated water to QP-RLC is presently sourced by Kahramaa from RLPC, supply from Q.Power will be shortly available as additional source of Desalinated water supply. CSF operates the Network to convey the Desalinated water supply to the connected Industries.

Wastewater Treatment

• RLC operates and maintains12 sewage treatment plants, 7 are on East side and 5 are on West side with total capacity to treat 44000 m3/day of sewage. With this capacity, plants are capable of meeting 137500 inhabitants requirement (sewage generated – 320 litre/person/day). Treated water quality is maintained as per Ministry of Environment (MoE) guidelines.

• The treated water is used for many applications, such as irrigation, dust suppression, construction work, fire water etc. RLC Landscaping project Phase-I has been completed to utilize this TSE water for irrigating Ras Laffan Avenue. A large lake already constructed on West side in which all treated water shall be collected and later utilized for irrigation/landscaping. Dry sludge generated from the plants may also be utilized as fertilizer

Non routine activities will be assessed on a case by case activity. These activities will be conducted under Permit to Work conditions. During the application to conduct such activities under the Permit to Work procedures these activities will be subjected to Job Safety Analysis/Risk Assessments. The Activity Risk Register has been developed by developing Job Categories (A-G, eight Categories in total) in terms of the risks pertaining to activities. Previous activity Risk Assessments, registers and Job Descriptions was used as a guiding source when the activities were categorized. 1. It is the policy of Ras Laffan to establish and maintain processes to identify OH&S hazard identification, assessment of risk with each hazard and determining controls for the same. Hazard identification and risk assessment (commonly called as OH&S Risk Assessments) is done for all persons assessing the workplace including employed workers, contractors and visitors. This is an ongoing process that will be reviewed at least once every two years, after an incident, change of Legislation that has an impact on activities, new positions or after job observations, statistical analysis identifies a change in risk value.
