• QHSE management system
Quality, Health, Safety and Environment

QHSE Management System aimed at quality, occupational health and safety,

and environment.
It’s a tool for management to direct, manage, and develop the organisation.
The goal of the QHSE Management System is to ensure that the organisation
complies with the relevant legislation and regulations in the field of
occupational health and safety and the environment.

Standards in Setting Up a QHSE System:

• ISO 9001 : 2015 - Quality Management System
• ISO 14001 : 2015 - Environment Management System
• ISO 45001 : 2018 - Occupational Health and Safety Management System

Environmental aspect
 ONGC has established and maintained procedures to identify environmental aspects of its
activities, products and services which it can control and over which it can have an influence.
 The issues considered while identifying the significant environmental aspects associated with the
activities, products and services, at the installation are:
 
 Emissions to air
 Release to water
 Release to land
 Use of raw materials and natural resources
 Use of energy
 Energy emitted( e.g. heat, radiation, vibration(noise), light)
 Generation of Waste and/or by-products
 Use of space

Identification of Hazards in ONGC.

A hazard is any source of potential damage, harm or adverse health effects

on something or someone.
(for example, to people as health effects, to organizations as property or
equipment losses, or to the environment).

 Fire
 Leakage of hydrocarbons from any pipeline/joint/ tanker
 Bursting of any pipeline or equipment
 Breakage or fracture of any essential part of draw-works, casing
line or failure of emergency brake , fracture or failure of any essential
part of any derrick, machinery or apparatus.
 Blowout of Well
 Accident during Rig/tanker transportation.
 Influx of noxious gases
 Accidents due to explosives
Incident & Accident
Incident: work-related event(s) in which an injury
or ill health (regardless of severity) or fatality
occurred or could have occurred.
 
NOTE 1 An accident is an incident which has given rise to
injury, ill health or fatality.
NOTE 2 An incident where no injury, ill health, or fatality
occurs may also be referred to as a “near-miss”, “near-hit”,
“close call” or “dangerous occurrence”.
NOTE 3 An emergency situation is a particular type of
incident.

MINOR ACCIDENT
 Any accident resulting in injury or property loss or Fire and not falling
under any of the categories of major incidents.

 An incident which does not result in an injury or damage to property
but has a potential to result in injury and or property damage
Or
 An undesirable event if not timely controlled would have let to a major
/ minor incident
NIL REPORTING
 If in any unit no incidents takes place it is mandatory to report “NIL
report” on a daily basis .
