List fire, gas, H2S, process deviation, loss of containment, manual alarm, and utility failure triggers.
Describe automatic trips, manual actions, valve closures, blowdown, pump stops, and power isolation.
Define muster, exclusion zones, access control, marine or road restrictions, and responder entry.
State control room calls, radio channels, emergency notifications, and regulator or company alerts.
List pressure, gas testing, valve status, ignition source control, and incident stabilization checks.
Define investigation, permits, leak tests, override review, and management approval before restart.
Use clear command language and site-specific ESD levels.
Activate ESD-1 for confirmed gas release in process area, fire alarm in Train 2, or manual command from control room.
| System | Action |
|---|---|
| Inlet manifold | Close SDV-100 and SDV-101 |
| Compressors | Trip K-201A/B and start blowdown |
Control room announces ESD status on radio channel 1 and notifies field supervisor and emergency coordinator.
Restart requires gas-free verification, cause review, signed override list, and operations manager approval.
