    LSR#1/#2/#4 Safety Moment – Fatal incident

    during CSE activity


    What happened:
    On 23/8/09, a welder crawled alone inside a 24” dia pipe to inspect
    his own work but subsequently found suffocated. Helper wisely did
    not enter but called for help. Emergency team safely pulled from
    the pipe – found unconscious & unresponsive; CPR was attempted
    but was unsuccessful. This happened at TR7 of QGC.
    Key findings (based on draft LFI):
    - Atmosphere in pipe: 10.2% O2 (safe entry 20%): Argon was
    24” Stainless
    introduced & not shut off prior entry. Steel Pipe
    - No evidence of CSE training. (Line No.
    NR5306212-
    - CSE permit & company RA compliance not specified. 24”)
    - Compliance of standby attendant at entry point not specified.
    Key lessons learnt for us:
    - CSE is HIGH RISK activity. NEVER, EVER enter a CS without having
    the atmosphere Gas/O2 tested first, CSE permit approved, rescue
    plan / tag in place, attendant on s/by & equip is safe for use!
    - Sticking your head inside pipe/vessel/vessel skirt for quick look
    is hazardous!
    - CSE training is mandatory for all CSE workers / attendant. No
    CSE ID means No entry.
