Emergency Protocols

H2S Detection

Immediate evacuation required if H2S levels exceed 10 PPM. Don personal H2S monitor at all times in designated areas. Move upwind and contact emergency services.

โ˜Ž 911 + Safety: ext. 100

Electrical Hazard

De-energize all systems before maintenance. Use lockout/tagout procedures. Verify with voltage tester. Minimum approach distance of 10 feet from overhead power lines.

โ˜Ž Emergency: 911

Fire/Explosion

Activate nearest pull station. Evacuate to designated muster point. Account for all personnel. Do not re-enter until cleared by emergency responders.

โ˜Ž 911 + ext. 100

Medical Emergency

Call 911 immediately. Provide exact location coordinates. Administer first aid if trained. Notify site supervisor and safety officer. Do not move injured person unless immediate danger.

โ˜Ž 911 First

Common Field Hazards

โš ๏ธ

Hydrogen Sulfide (H2S)

Toxic gas present in oil & gas operations. Colorless with rotten egg smell at low concentrations. Paralyzes sense of smell at high concentrations. Fatal above 100 PPM. Always wear personal gas monitor and work with a buddy in H2S areas.

โšก

Electrical Shock

Control panels operate at 120/240VAC and higher. Arc flash hazard during energized work. Follow NFPA 70E standards. Use insulated tools and PPE rated for voltage level. Implement lockout/tagout before accessing energized equipment.

๐Ÿ”ฅ

Flammable Atmospheres

LEL (Lower Explosive Limit) monitoring required. No ignition sources within 25 feet of wellheads or tank batteries. Use intrinsically safe equipment only. Eliminate static electricity with proper grounding.

๐Ÿ—๏ธ

Fall Hazards

Work at heights >6 feet requires fall protection. Inspect ladders before use. Three points of contact when climbing. Secure all tools to prevent dropped objects. Use guardrails and safety harnesses when working on elevated platforms.

๐Ÿš—

Vehicle/Mobile Equipment

High visibility required near moving equipment. Establish exclusion zones around heavy machinery. Never walk under suspended loads. Maintain radio communication with operators. Use spotters when backing vehicles.

๐ŸŒก๏ธ

Extreme Weather

Heat stress in summer (Wyoming/Texas). Cold exposure in winter. Lightning hazards in open areas. Take scheduled breaks, stay hydrated, and monitor weather conditions. Seek shelter during electrical storms.
