Accident (from CCPS RBPS)

 On 17 July 2001, an explosion occurred in a spent sulfuric acid storage tank at a refinery in
Delaware
 Welding work to repair tank leaks ignited hydrocarbon vapors in the vapor space of the tank. One
contract maintenance worker was killed, and eight others were injured
 The accident resulted from a confluence of several factors:
– (1) the corrosivity and flammability hazards associated with changing the tank from fresh acid
service to spent acid service were not identified and controlled,
– (2) repeated requests for tank inspections and repairs were deferred or ignored
– (3) the hot work permit failed to specify atmospheric monitoring despite previous permit
denials because of toxic and flammable gas concentrations
 Each of these contributing factors was the result of a management system breakdown
(management of change, asset integrity, and safe work) that could have been identified and
corrected by timely management review

What is an management review?

 Management review is the routine evaluation of whether management systems are performing as
intended and producing the desired results as efficiently as possible
 It is the ongoing "due diligence" review by management that fills the gap between day-to-day
work activities and periodic formal audits

What is the difference with an audit?

 Management reviews are conducted with the same underlying intent as an audit - to evaluate the
effectiveness of the implementation of an entire PSM element or a particular element task
 However, because the objective of a management review is to spot current or incipient
deficiencies, the reviews are more broadly focused and more frequent than audits, and they
are typically conducted in a less formal manner
 Note: management reviews still require a similar system for scheduling, staffing, and effectively
evaluating all PSM elements, and a system should be in place for implementing any resulting
plans for improvement or corrective action and verifying their effectiveness
