7 FOREWORD This Model Code provides an explanation of the static electricity ignition risk as it relates to operations in the petroleum industry, and provides technical guidance for the more frequent operations which will help to reduce the inadvertent ignition of flammable atmospheres due to static electricity. The third edition of this Model Code provides new and revised information on: how to use the guidelines in the context of a risk assessment, the influence of bio-components (only a preliminary warning highlighting potential risk is possible at present), a more detailed discussion of earthing and bonding requirements for filling stations and aircraft fuelling, personal protective equipment (PPE), including footwear, filling IBCs, the use of plastics for underground piping at filling stations, fuelling with LPG and CNG (brief information only), tank cleaning, meter proving, liquefied natural gas (brief information only), and upstream operations (brief information only). In addition, the information on electrical equipment which was not directly relevant to static electricity hazards has been removed and the arrangement of sections has been reorganised to put the general information on static electricity hazards into an Annex. Minor changes to the Model Code have also been made in several places in order to increase alignment with other publications and standards. The information contained in this publication is provided as guidance only and while every reasonable care has been taken to ensure the accuracy of its contents, the EI and the technical representatives listed in the acknowledgements, cannot accept any responsibility for any action taken, or not taken, on the basis of this information. The EI shall not be liable to any person for any loss or damage which may arise from the use of any of the information contained in any of its publications.

9 1 INTRODUCTION AND SCOPE 1.1 BACKGROUND Static electricity is a phenomenon that will be familiar to most people. When the atmosphere is dry, small electric shocks are commonly experienced after walking across synthetic materials, or removing synthetic clothing. Very seldom are these small electric shocks dangerous or life threatening. However, it is worth noting that an electric shock that can be felt would probably cause ignition of a flammable atmosphere if it were present. Static electricity can be generated in the work environment. In the petroleum industry, the possibility of an electrical discharge or spark occurring when flammable atmospheres are present poses an ignition hazard that could threaten the safety of personnel. Work to understand static electricity hazards and prevent incidents has been undertaken in numerous studies and the general principles for controlling these hazards are now well understood. However, as the industry evolves, the specific details of products, equipment and operations change and consequently, incidents have still occurred. This Model Code has been updated to provide improved guidance on how to control and minimise the risks associated with static electricity. It is intended to complement other publications and standards (e.g. those issued by API, BSI, CEN, CENELEC, IEC, ISGOTT, ISGINTT, etc.) and provide additional guidance for operational areas where incidents continue to be reported. It is also intended that use of this Model Code will aid the petroleum industry in meeting their duties under the Dangerous Substances and Explosive Atmospheres Regulations 2002 (DSEAR) SCOPE The scope of this Model Code covers static electricity hazards in the petroleum industry. The main focus is on downstream operations (the handling of refined products and components) because this is where most of the hazards will potentially occur. However, a brief summary on possible upstream (exploration and production) issues is also provided. This Model Code provides: a general explanation of the relevant aspects of static electricity; information to guide the evaluation of static electricity hazards in a risk assessment; information on relevant product characteristics and equipment requirements, and measures for controlling static electricity in particular operations. Guidance on specific measures is provided in the following areas: road and rail loading and unloading; product storage and transfer, including sampling and gauging; ship and barge loading and unloading; product deliveries; filling station operations; barrel, drum and container filling, and aircraft fuel handling. 1 The Offshore Installations (Prevention of Fire and Explosion, and Emergency Response) Regulations 1995 (PFEER) apply to offshore installations. It is intended that using the guidance in this Model Code will assist in complying with these regulations, specifically Regulation 9. 8
10 Adoption of the specific measures in this Model Code should help reduce the likelihood of an inadvertent ignition of a flammable atmosphere in the operations concerned. The general guidance provides an opportunity to understand hazard processes, so that potential hazards can be identified in new operations or with new equipment designs and change can be managed appropriately. Users should recognise that even the specific measures described in this Model Code provide only an overview of the methods for controlling static electricity hazards. The detailed implementation of the measures at any particular site depends on local considerations. The appropriate implementation should be determined by including a consideration of static electricity issues in a site risk assessment, such as that required under DSEAR (onshore) and PFEER 2 (offshore). Users are recommended to perform risk assessments on their operations to determine the most appropriate way to apply the guidance in this Model Code. General electrical safety hazards are not included in the scope of this Model Code; however, information on electrical equipment (which may be used for static electricity protection) is provided in EI Model code of safe practice Part 1: The selection, installation, inspection, and maintenance of electrical and non electrical apparatus in hazardous areas. Hazardous areas are used for controlling ignition hazards from electrical and mechanical equipment, but can also assist in controlling static electricity hazards. Guidance on hazardous area classification can be found in EI Model code of safe practice Part 15: Area classification code for installations handling flammable fluids. 2 One method of satisfying the requirements of PFEER is by the application of DSEAR. 9
