Objectives and Expectations

It is person’s responsibility to follow the HSE

Golden Rules:

You and I:

• Comply with the law, standards, and procedures

• Intervene in unsafe or non-compliant situations

• Respect our neighbors

Golden Rules

Zero deaths. Zero deaths. Zero injuries. Zero injuries. Zero significant incidents.Zero significant incidents.

• SAFETY IS A DEEPLY HELD VALUE (not something to be prioritized)

• Goal Zero means relentlessly pursuing no harm to people and no significant environmental incidents.

Goal Zero

Life Saving Rules & Consequences of Not Adhering

• Transportation Specific LSR’s:– No cell phone use while driving– Must wear a seatbelt while driving– No drinking & driving (or illegal drug use & driving)– No speeding

• Any violations are grounds for :– Removal from Shell location(s)– Ban from driving for Shell or on Shell business– Non-renewal of contract– Shell supervisor may also suffer consequences if known

violations are allowed

•The MAJORITY (~75%) of Shell's fatalities are caused by road transport accidents.

•We have had two such fatalities in our region in 2008.

•Learnings from the incidents have shown:

• 85% of Shell incidents/accidents occur due to undesirable driver behaviour.

• We need to ELIMINATE OR CONTROL EXPOSURE.

Why Focus on Road Transport?

Use data from Vehicles equipped with an In Vehicle Monitoring System or Vehicle Data Recorder (IVMS or VDR) as a monitoring method, where legislation allows, to:

• analyse and improve road transport planning and safety performance;

• provide regular, formal feedback to all Drivers (Driver Management System); and

• apply consequence management that includes recognition for compliance, and sanctions for non-compliance.

Driver SafetyBenefits of In Vehicle Monitoring System (IVMS)

Driver Behaviour:• Fosters safer driving behaviours (in conjunction with one-on-one reviews).• Response to working alone legislation.• Reduced costs in driver training.

– training will be focused on those who are more aggressive when driving (i.e. those who operate beyond the parameters set forth within IVMS).

Fleet Management:• Reduction in kilometers driven.

– Drivers less likely to take vehicles on unnecessary / unauthorized journeys.• Reduce expenses associated with unsafe driving and accidents.• Reduction in vehicle maintenance.• Reduction in fuel consumption.• Protect assets from loss..

Incident Investigation:• Capture and record accident data for reconstructive analysis.

Documentation:• DOT/HOS/IFTA compliance.

Driver SafetyShell Canada – Current Thresholds

• Driving Without Seat Belt: If the vehicle is driven without seat belt fastened at a speed greater than 15 km/h.

• Harsh Braking – Vehicle stops quicker than 12 km/h/s, system will beep to notify driver.

• Harsh Acceleration – Vehicle accelerates greater than 13 km/h/s, system will beep to notify driver.

• Over Speeding: When driving above the local and “geo-fenced” speed limits the system will sound the buzzer continuously until vehicle is travelling below the speed limit.

• Over Revving: Engine RPM > 4000 rpm for diesel vehicle > 4500 for gas vehicles.

• Excessive Idle: Idle Time > 120 minutes.

Professional Driver Safety Risk Management

Periodically question and review the number of Journeys with the intent to eliminate Journeys and lower the risk. Reduce the risk to As Low As Reasonably Practicable (ALARP) by applying the following hierarchy of controls. Beginning with the first control, assess each in turn to select a control that is reasonably practicable for the task:

First Eliminate the Journey.

Second Change to a lower Risk transportation mode.

Third Apply Vehicle controls.

Fourth Apply administrative and procedural controls that guide Driver and passenger behaviour including Driver Competence requirements and

Journey management.

Inspect Vehicles and maintain them in safe working order:

• Maintain Vehicles in line with manufacturers’ specifications and local legislative requirements.

• Perform maintenance using qualified technicians or mechanics and document the work performed.

16

• Ensure staff trained with regards to cargo securement requirements:– National Safety Code Standard #10– Industry Best Practices

• as recommended by the Petroleum Services Association of Canada (PSAC) and the Canadian Association of Oilwell Drilling Contractors (CAODC).

• All nylon straps and chains used to secure cargo must be labeled with the manufacturer's information and the rated Working Load Limit (WLL) of the complete tie down assembly must be affixed to the device and be legible.

Cargo Securement

• The ratchet-style load binder is the preferred securement device when chain configurations are used to secure cargo.

• The use of lever-style (over center boomers) load binders to secure cargo is prohibited. The stored energy of these devices introduces the potential for serious injury to the driver when breaking or releasing the handle of the lever binder. These hazards are compounded when cheater pipes are applied to aid drivers in providing leverage on the binder.

Load Binders (Ratchet allowed and Lever prohibited)

Securement Devices

Contract & Procurement’s Role

• Ensure compliance with RT guiding principles when establishing contracts.

• Include RT compliance as part of HSE component of contractor BPR’s.

• Ensure contract Terms & Conditions include compliance with RT Standards.

• Constantly communicate the need to comply with the RT Standards to contractors whenever possible.

Training & Resources

• Upstream Americas Contractor Website– RT Standard & other related documents– IVMS information– Journey Management– Contractor Gap Assessment summary

www.uacontractor.com

Training & Resources

Contractor’s Assistance Required

• Ensure all staff has reviewed & acknowledged the 12 Life Saving Rules.

• Reporting of all incidents/accidents and near misses.– Includes driving related incidents, load securement

incidents, incidents with animals, etc.

• Reporting Shell related mileage monthly to HSE focal.– Report percentage of km’s traveled on Shell business,

where IVMS is installed in the vehicle.

• Work towards closing gaps, as they pertain to the Road Transport Standard.

• Communication of hazards to site foreman, as soon as possible.

Timelines / Next Steps

20102010• All contractors to complete RT questions in ISN.• Road Transport Specialists

– conduct on-site gap assessments with contractors.– conduct teach & train sessions with contractors and Shell

staff.– gap closure verification.

• December 2010 – full implementation of Road Transport Standard.
