Contingency Drills Carried Out by the Coiled Tubing Puguang 105-2 Well
Wash for blockage removal by coiled tubing is a
coiled tubing project conducted by our company at a high-sulphur area. Any H2S
leakage during the operation process could most probably lead to casualties.
Therefore, construction of this time was fairly difficult and dangerous. “I am
responsible for my own safety and I have responsibility for my colleagues’
safety.” In order to improve contingency capability and to assure no loss of
lives, the Coiled Tubing Team have recently conducted a couple of contingency
drills.
On April 6th, before the start
of construction, Puguang Coiled Tubing Team accepted a one-day emergency rescue
training at the Emergency Rescue Center of Puguang Sub-Company, Zhongyuan Oil
Field.
On April the 8th, over 10
members from the Coiled
Tubing Service
Center were participating
an “Contingency Drill of H2S Overflowing Accident Caused by Leakage
of the Blowout Preventer” at Puguang 105-2 Well. The team leader RAO Yu made a
comment after the drill.
On April 10th, under the organization
of Party A, Yilong Corporation joined hands with Zhongyuan Jingxia Company (the
construction unit) to carry out twice the “Contingency Drill of H2S
Leakage Accident Caused by the Semi Seal Failure of Coiled Tubing”. Vice
President WANG Hai from Yilong and members from QHSE department, Puguang Emergency Rescue
Center and other units
concerned participated in the drill. The leader from Party A made a comment
after the drill.
It was estimated that in the follow-up
operations, more accident contingency drills would be performed, so that every
participating member for the construction could respond skillfully to the
emerged accidents, that various manpower and material resources would be
organized and coordinated in time to minimize possible damages.
Background Introduction
Puguang Gas Field contains H2S,
which is a strong nervous poison. H2S has a strong hormesis to
mucosae. When it reaches high concentration, it may directly inhibit
respiratory center to cause an immediate apnea and even death. Contact with
low-concentrated H2S for a long time will also cause symptoms of
neurasthenic syndrome and neurological disorders.
Accident Contingency Drill is a key link
for safety system project. Faced with accidents, it is of utmost importance to
be familiar with and accurate in executing the accidents contingency plan to
enhance the staff’s emergency reaction and coordinating ability so as to
control casualty and to save lives. Special plans need to be made for each
accident contingency drill, which shall include the purpose of contingency
drill, the scope of application, the principles of the drill, organization and
coordination, various staff including commanding staff, emergency rescue staff,
leakage control staff, inspection and reviewing staff, as well as communications
and reports, comments and summary, etc.
