Heart and Minds toolkit

The Hearts and Minds safety programme was developed by Shell E&P in 2002, based
upon 20 years of university research, and is being successfully applied in Shell compa-
nies around the world. The programme uses a range of tools and techniques to help
the organisation involve all staff in managing Health, Safety and Environment as an
integral part of their business.

Collectively, these tools and techniques are known as the Hearts and Minds Toolkit.
Now, for the first time, this state of the art Toolkit is available to those outside the Shell
Group, thanks to a publishing agreement between the Energy Institute and Shell E&P.

The Hearts and Minds Toolkit has tools suitable for managers, team leaders and work-
force at all levels, which are designed to be used without the need for consultants. The
Toolkit addresses topics such as:

Understanding your culture An engagement tool to identify local strengths and

weaknesses and find out how to build a stronger
HSE culture.
Seeing yourself as others see you HSE Upwards appraisal tool to understand other’s
perceptions and identify how commitment is turned
into action
Making change last A general tool for managing change and supporting
any improvement process or organisational change
programmes
Risk assessment matrix: Helps people understand their risks, makes them
bringing it to life personal and stimulate action
Achieving situation awareness: To help people make better risk based decisions and
the rule of 3 be able to justify them
Managing rule breaking To prevent incidents being caused by rule breaking
Improving supervision To improve the non-technical skills of supervisors
Working safely Intervention programme that builds on and sup-
ports existing programmes or can be run by itself
Driving for excellence A suite of exercises to change the behaviour of drivers
and the people who manage them

The cultural ladder

World class HSE performance

World-class HSE performance involves more than mechanically applying a management
system – it requires the involvement of all in the organisation, from top to bottom.
Winning Hearts and Minds is intended to help organisations to improve by:

1. Leading the way – the ‘route to the top’ of the HSE culture ladder
2. Providing process and tools to facilitate behavioural change – the necessary
components of a solution

Creating buy-in
Winning Hearts and Minds for HSE is about getting all to work safely not just
because they’ve been told to, but because that is what they want to do. The art of
good management is to get people to want to do what you may have already decided
they should do. Help them to do so — the Hearts and Minds Toolkit enables you to
create a truly proactive and generative approach to HSE management.

Learn more by downloading the Winning Hearts and Minds Road Map, which is
available free on the EI website website, www.energyinst.org.uk/heartsandminds

NEW! The Hearts and Minds toolkit is now available in a range of languages including
Arabic, Dutch, French, German, Norwegian, Portuguese, Russian and Spanish.

IP Riskmanager ™ for terminals: Generic risk assessment tool NEW

for petroleum distribution facilities

IP riskmanager™ for terminals is a software application that enables users to

complete an operational risk assessment for a petroleum distribution facility,
whether a terminal, depot or larger customer storage facility. It is intended for use
by site managers, SHE managers, or those with an interest in managing or
regulating risk drivers at such sites. The application takes the user through each
area of a petroleum distribution facility using an activity-based risk assessment
method and records the findings; in addition, it creates reports and action plans to
appropriately address the risks identified. Completing a risk assessment using
IP riskmanager™ for terminals should help petroleum distribution facilities to meet
pertinent operational (but not major hazards) safety, health and environmental
legislative requirements, as well as satisfying other pertinent risk drivers.

Spotlight on

Environmental guidelines for petroleum distribution facilities

The EI is publishing a new edition of this important guidance which looks at the need
for good environmental practices and procedures at distribution facilities. The scope cov-
ers: an explanation for the oil industry, its customers and contractors of the environmen-
tal issues involved in the operational aspects of the business; an agreed industry view on
the environmental issues for use in discussion with regulatory authorities and others;
guidelines that represent the current best and most cost-effective practices to minimise
environmental impact and to meet the requirements of regulatory authorities; an indica-
tion of future trends. These guidelines can be used as a basis for managing the environ-
mental impact of refinery off-sites, LPG, bitumen, aviation, authorised distributors and
lubricant operations. The guidance offered is intended for international use but, where
appropriate, reference is made to EC and UK legislation.

The effect of nitrate anti–souring treatment on corrosion NEW
of mild steel
An increasing number of operators are using nitrate to
combat reservoir souring and suppress SRB activity. The
biological anti–souring treatment is environmentally
friendly for offshore applications and can be comparatively
inexpensive. However, concerns have been raised
regarding the effect of the treatment and its by–products
on the corrosion of mild steel. Of particular concern is
the intermittent generation of low concentrations of
nitrite. This independent study was commissioned by the
Microbiology Committee of the EI and was a part of the
Committee's leading role in promoting good practices,
greener alternatives and improved understanding of
industrial microbiology.

IP Derived Cetane Number Correlation Scheme

This scheme is run parallel to and uses the same specially blended diesel fuels that are
used for the Diesel Fuel Engine Correlation Scheme. The scheme enables laboratories
determining the Derived Cetane Number of diesel fuels by IP 498 or IP PM DI to:
• Compare their results against those determined by other users
• Compare the Derived Cetane Number (DCN) to the mean of that Cetane Number (CN)
as determined by IP 41/ASTM D613 Diesel Fuel Engine Correlation Scheme
• Have a set of Secondary Working Standards with known DCN and CN values that can be
used for quality control measurements

IP gasoline and diesel fuel engine correlation scheme

A requirement for laboratories conducting tests for the assessment of automotive fuel
quality, as set out in the European automotive fuels – Assessment of petrol and diesel
fuel quality – Fuel quality monitoring scheme, is that they are a member of an inter–lab-
oratory correlation scheme with sufficient members so as to ensure that their results are
part of a statistically valid data set. Membership of the IP Engine Correlation Scheme will
enable laboratories to meet these requirements for both petrol and diesel fuel engines.

This scheme offers laboratories the opportunity to check their engines on a monthly
basis using a variety of commercially available fuels and specially prepared blends, and
will form an important part of any petroleum laboratory's QA procedure.

Samples of gasoline or reference blends are tested for both Research and Motor Octane
Number and diesel fuel for Cetane Number. Results are statistically analysed and pub-
lished monthly enabling laboratories to compare their results with the statistical mean.
In addition, a yearly results report is issued.

Power generation

Managing contractors – a guide for the energy industry

The Energy Institute (EI) has published these good
practice guidelines in response to a need identified by
the Power Generation Health and Safety Committee at
the Energy Institute in November 2005.
The Committee requested that a consistent and
comprehensive approach to managing contractors would
benefit the industry as a whole. A steering committee,
consisting of safety professionals from key organisations
within the power generation industry, was convened to
manage the project and produce good practice
guidelines for managing the health and safety of
Contractors on power generation sites with a particular
focus on working with foreign nationals.
These new guidelines cover initial contracting through
to managing the staff on site. They review current
practices employed by power generation companies,
provide assistance on the development of guidelines
for contract tendering, and the management of staff
on site, with specific recommendations for managing
multi-lingual contracting staff during all stages of the
contract including at induction.

Transport fuelling update on alternatives NEW

Ed. Eric Goodger. The recent hikes in the price of fuels,
plus the sharpening focus on their finite nature, have led
to a resurgence of interest in their potential replacements.
The work that has been ongoing steadily within this area
for some years has identified several materials to either
supplement the conventional fuels, or substitute for them
completely.This publication outlines all the main contenders
in the alternative fuel scene, treating them in a particularly
readable and readily acceptable way. Tabulated and
plotted data compare the properties of representative
members of each group with those of the conventionals,
concluding with notes on recent developments and
applications, fully indexed with the relevant literature

Spotlight on
Partnership Agreements
The signing of the Phoenix Agreement in 2006 marked a major step forward in the development
and standardization of petroleum measurement guidance. Under the agreement, the API
(American Petroleum Institute) and the EI will work together with the aim of producing joint
API/EI standards in all areas of petroleum measurement. In addition to the production of new
joint standards, existing standards already produced by both organisations will be combined as
they come up for review. Over the course of the next few years this process will lead to a single
set of standards for international use.
The International Standards Organisation (ISO) is the highest level standards body, representing
national standards organisations. Joint API/EI documents will be made available for adoption by
ISO, and ISO will be invited to propose development and revision work through the API/EI system.
By combining efforts and involving wide groups of international experts in the Joint Work Groups
it should be possible for ISO to accept joint API/EI documents for rapid adoption as ISO standards.
Companies can now be confident that in providing experts to participate in standards development
activities either via the API or the EI they will have direct and full access to a process leading to
joint documents for international use.
New partnerships were forged in 2006 between the EI and Croner for the provision of energy
management guidance. The EI looks forward to building on existing agreements and establishing
new partnerships across industry in the coming months.
