Chlorine handling: Pipe design and inspection

Published on 24/10/23 734 Views

A pipeline carrying pressurised liquified Chlorine began to leak at the juncture where it was connected to the plant's construction. This pipeline was positioned at an elevated location on a pipe-bridge, posing a challenge for regular inspections. Unfortunately, this difficulty in access resulted in the oversight of this critical weak point during the inspection process.

Ask yourself and your crew:

  • How can something like this happen here (e.g. on our site)?
  • What safety measures (i.e. procedures, controls/barriers) do we have in place to mitigate the risk?
  • How do we know the risk controls/barriers are working?
  • What improvements or changes should we make to the procedures, controls/barriers or the way we work?
