Work in a confined space is only carried out if it is necessary and there is not a safer way of doing it.

A documented procedure describes the requirements and responsibilities of the team working in the confined space, including the rescue plan. This is reviewed and acknowledged by all involved in the work.

Competent and authorised persons are appointed to conduct a risk assessment, to isolate the confined space from energy sources, to verify confined space air quality, to select appropriate respiratory protection equipment, and to participate in the confined space entry activities.

A JSA been completed prior to commencing work and those working understand the hazards of the work.

The confined space has been isolated, flushed clear, and vented, to eliminate hazards.

A plan that includes ventilation, access and egress is in place before every entry.

The Permit to Work is on display at the work location and visible to all and removed once work is finished.

Locks and tags are correctly fitted to all isolation points.

An access control system has been established with markings, signs, tags and locking. A competent attendant (confined space attendant or stand-by person) is on duty all the time that someone is in the space and they have adequate means of communication.

Functional, calibrated personal or stationary atmospheric monitors are available to constantly monitor the level of oxygen, combustible gases and other toxic gases, whenever hazardous gas or vapour may be present. An authorised person periodically verifies and documents that the continuous air quality testing is being done before and during work within confined space.Unauthorised entry is prevented with barricading and labelling NO ENTRY.

Compressed gas hoses are NEVER left inside a confined space after work has stopped. Sites that cannot meet this standard must have a Shell approved detailed procedure in place.<br>

After completion of the confined space work, all entrants have left the confined space (checked by the confined space attendant using a checklist or access system) and a means of preventing re-entry is established.
