Introduction

The safe isolation of plant and equipment is essential to allow various processes to take place, such as: cleaning, maintenance, repair and modification. Failures during the isolation and re-instatement of plant and equipment are a significant cause of loss of containment incidents and can lead to major accidents. In some cases, the isolation may take place a long way from where the work is being carried out. Suitable procedures need to be implemented, managed, monitored, reviewed and revised. The effectiveness of an isolation system depends on the adequacy of other arrangements, including work control systems (especially permit-to-work), operating procedures, training and competence, management of change and contingency plans.

Extensive guidance for isolation of plant and equipment in chemical industry, oil & gas industry and petrochemical industry is very important to eliminate and prevent hazard. This guidance will lead to enable duty holders to develop, review and enhance isolation standards and procedures.

Examining principles and legal considerations, it advises how to isolate plant and equipment safely and how to reduce the risk of releasing hazardous substances during intrusive activities like maintenance and sampling.

The methodology Includes for selecting 'baseline' standards and outlines preventive and risk reduction measures. In scoping the pertinent issues, it considers broad matters (eg work control systems or documentation) and specifics like draining or venting. With many detailed diagrams and easy-glance reference tables
