NTSB Recommendations to API § Implementation of SMSs in transportation systems by elevating SMSs to its Most Wanted List. § SMSs continuously identify, address, and monitor threats to the safety of company operations by doing the following: • Proactively address safety issues before they become incidents/accidents. • Document safety procedures and requiring strict adherence to the procedures by safety personnel. • Treat operator errors as system deficiencies and not as reasons to punish and intimidate operators. • Require senior company management to commit to operational safety. • Identify personnel responsible for safety initiatives and oversight. • Implement a nonpunitive method for employees to report safety hazards. • Continuously identify and address risks in all safety-critical aspects of operations. • Provide safety assurance by regularly evaluating (or auditing) operations to identify and address risks. §
Essential Elements of RP 1173 § Leadership and Management Commitment § Stakeholder Engagement § Risk Management § Operational Controls § Incident Investigation, Evaluation, and Lessons Learned § Safety Assurance § Management Review and Continuous Improvement § Emergency Preparedness and Response § Competence, Awareness, and Training § Documentation and Record Keeping
Why is the SMS important . . . Operating pipelines safely is a complicated job. Sometimes, it is made more difficult by the burden of many things. • Barrage of email . . . • Compliance with thousands of regulations – Minutiae • Financial Excellence • Pursuit of personal and vehicular safety in the workplace • Reporting to many regulators • Managing product quality and through put • … one can stay busy every moment of every day but still not address some of the most important facets of pipeline operation and safety
Why is the SMS important . . . A Safety Management System forces action on the important things. • This means not reviewing risk when you think about it or have time, but as scheduled events, acting with intentionality rather than sporadically • An SMS forces important reviews and actions to become routine activities • An SMS includes documentation that risk management has occurred and that action items are completed • SMS seeks continuous improvement in processes and in the management system itself • SMS is a journey, not a box to check
