1 SCOPE
The scope of this plan is:

 To effect immediate response/action to keep the emergency situation under control and
where necessary to evacuate all personnel rapidly in a safe and orderly manner from the
Site.
 To ensure advance awareness and timely action to minimize the element of risk and/or
danger to all personnel.
 To avoid impact of emergency on personnel and if avoidance is not possible, to limit the
impact on personnel, property and the environment.
 To provide communication channels essential to the coordination of tasks and
responsibilities needed to deal with an emergency both within the project and external
emergency services.
 To provide essential and current information to those appointed to manage incidents and
accidents beyond the regular HSSE controls at site.
The plan will also serve as guidance when briefing and awareness external organizations, such
as the fire brigade and ambulance services that may render support to an emergency affecting
the Project.
This Emergency Response Plan (ERP) is valid for the initial construction phase and shall be
reviewed annually (or more frequently as necessary) to ensure it is appropriate for use as new
activities and work areas open up. For the pre-commissioning phase the Emergency Response
Plan will require a very specific update.
This document applies to all site construction activities to be performed within all Project
Construction Areas, including off-site facilities and personnel involved, and covers Health,
Safety, Security and Environmental emergency aspects for the duration of the CONTRACTOR's
scope of work.
This Plan will be distributed not only within the CONTRACTOR HSE organization, but also to
the Project Managers and HSE focal points of all SUBCONTRACTORS involved in construction
activities as these may become involved in supporting emergency response activities and who
shall also play a role of briefing all workers on site on how to react in case of emergencies.
1.1 Purpose
This Emergency Response Plan (ERP) has been developed to outline the necessary
emergency measures to be considered, planned, implemented, and monitored on the Project
for all types of emergencies which could occur in any area of the Project (Green field), including
office facility and construction working areas.
The ERP also takes into consideration the project works that will be conducted in areas within,
or closely adjacent to, operating OWNER units (Brown field).
MOD-A4D-E is.4
In the event of an emergency within the OWNER adjacent live plant, the CONTRACTOR will
respond to any requests from the OWNER to evacuate the Project site and report to the
designated muster points carry out a head count and report the results to OWNER Incident
Commander and wait for further information. In all cases the requirements of ORPIC
3911-LZ-PL-AA000009
EPC SERVICES FOR

SULTANATE OF OMAN
Package LPIC-EPC-2
Emergency Response Plan (TGD-OMT-HSE-ERP-2014) will be followed by CONTRACTOR

during an Emergency from the “Live Facility”.
This plan serves as a guideline for all personnel in the Project to observe and follow in the event
of an emergency such as:
 HEALTH – outbreak of disease

 Injuries, Medical Emergency
 Road Traffic Accident
 Fire
 Natural Calamities/Severe Weather Related Conditions
 Civil disturbance/Security Incident
 Offsite Emergency
In the event of any unanticipated major emergency arising from the above eventualities, every
effort shall be explored in an effort to obtain the assistance of local public authorities, through
the OWNER to provide for an orderly and legal evacuation.
