saw this status on fb.
i google-ed. but no news regarding this.

this is 3 years ago?

probably..
2 of my friend working for Petronas are talking about it right now on whatsapp
smthng about vapour cloud

earn so much...time is up

covered?

let me find out from my source...

just got confirmation from my source. pipeline supplying gas to Gas Processing Plant A (the one at the main road side). Happened during midnight.

do u know what's the cause bro?

Normally they will try not to expose via news.

Normally sharing via safety alert

Slow.

vapour cloud from storage area? the blast radius can be quite far...

That size...

don't know. could be corroded pipeline.

what the...

Can't see from Kuala Terengganu

Usually it will not explode if it does not have spark source nearby...

price to pay for o&g industry

Few days ago, or was it last week, the gas pipeline in Sabah also pecah.

oO cover up

HSE people goyang kaki

High-risk, high-reward jobs...

I'm all for high rewards, so I thought a few times of going to work in O&G field a few times because I qualify in arc welding for the pipes. You can get 4-5k a month just welding those pipes, and that doesn't include allowances and OTs.

The high-risk part though... I'm well aware of how careless I am, so the thought perished quickly soon after.

High reward 404.
4-5k is underpaid.

Bagi orang lower middleclass macam aku ni, 5k tu dah cukup kaya la.

Kadar gaji 5k tu orang yang cerita kat aku. Gaji pokok sebenar kena tanya orang yang memang kerja tu la.

arc welder?

any health risk?

The entire kerteh town is build on fuel and LPG pipes. Single ignites can send the town to flames

tered sudah deraikan dengan bubies

HSE gaji mahal tapi kerja tak buat

Heat (from hotwork) + residual hydrocarbons = recipe for disaster.

dont simply say ppl goyang kaki la.
i suspect this is all top management negligence issue.

postpone scheduled turnaround to optimize the production, or delay the repair works when u know dozens of ur pipelines actually have zero thickness.
what can a salarymen do when ur management dont approve and call for repair works?

im not saying this is the actual cause, but just to give just a little idea on how large corporation works.
any corporations for that matter. everyone must obey the whoever seems to be the mastermind.
SOP is SOP. but that can easily be bypassed.
engineers say things as accroding to what the bosses need them to say and engineer the reasonings themselves.

Memang HSE incompetence in general.
Many HSE initiatives not implemented because not familiar with them. Bukan nak berfikir. And management of course want to save costs.

HSE only think like 20 years ago, when the operations now are already advanced.

malaysia masih aman

?

Karma

Entah...flashing their greenbooks here & there to get big $$.

Any tom & d*** can become HSE personnel. Heck...SPM so terok can become safety supervisor / officer. Really no standard. Many choose safety cos it's the easiest rather than taking technical courses & the mindset 'safety gaji besar'.
What's happening now is many private institutions churn out truck loads of imcompetent safety practitioner for the sake of profit. The only safety people that i respect is those who has technical background / many years of site experience & shift to safety. They have higher understanding of how to do things (doesnt implement ridiculous safety procedures) & easier to deal with.

fyi: I ever met a safety officer with greenbook who doesn't know how to operate microsoft word & excel aged less than 30 yrs lagitewww

Risk Management team failed I guess. Failed to mitigate risks. Even if an abnormality is found/discovered, it still can be operate if proper mitigation steps are put in place
