Process safety management

• 2024 Objective
  Continue advancing PSM implementation and optimizing audit content. Through cross-plant audits within the Group, areas for improvement during PSM implementation are identified, and best practices are shared among plants. Develop a PSM platform to digitize the 14 PSM processes in phases. This platform integrates the interconnection of each module, enabling quantification of PSM-related KPIs and effective monitoring of implementation status across the plant. CGPC has initiated the first phase of PSM implementation in its processing operations, focusing on equipment integrity, worker participation, process safety information, training, contractor management, and hot work permits.
• 2024 Performance
  Key implementation projects include: API 585 compliance, education and training for compliance audits, internal audits, and cross-plant audits; establishing a PSM platform electronic form. Approval process for compliance audits, contractor management, incident investigations, change management, and tracking of aging equipment; and integrating/reviewing/updating PSM’s 14 information management items to document implementation processes and quantify plant management goals.
• 2025 Objective
  •

  PSM Audit Form Optimization：
  Based on the Periodic Implementation Methods for Process Safety Assessments, OSHA 1910.119, CCPS Risk-Based Process Safety Management (RBPS), API 581, and recommendations from the Department of Industrial Development and the Parks and Parks Administration, the Group’s PSM Audit Form has been optimized.

  •

  PSM Group Cross-Plant Audits：
  Beginning in 2022, USI Group will collaborate with BSI, a certification body, and PSM academic experts to conduct PSM auditor training. They will also form a group PSM audit team to conduct visits to partner factories.

  •

  PSM platform education and training.

  •

  PSM Information Platform Development and Intelligent Technology Introduction: This year, we will focus on implementing intelligent technologies related to process safety management (PSM). In accordance with the Department of Industrial Development’s Intelligent Technology Introduction Plan, we will promote the application of six intelligent technologies: gas detection data analysis, human, vehicle, and environmental image recognition, abnormal personnel identification and location, equipment and pipeline monitoring, a plant operations management platform, and an intelligent inspection system. These technologies will enhance safety, environmental protection, and fire emergency response management, foster a high-quality workplace, and move towards sustainable operations.

  •

  Implement CMMS systematic management system
• 2026 Objective
  (Intermediate-term)
  •

  Refine and optimize the functionalities of various modules within the PSM platform.

  •

  CGPC has launched the third phase of PSM implementation in its processing operations, covering emergency response, process hazard analysis, trade secrets, and compliance audits.

  •

  Introduction of PSM-related technical methods, such as FMECA Failure Mode Effects and Criticality Analysis Procedural HAZOP and training on the PSM platform.
• 2030 Objective
  (Long-term)
  Each PSM work item complies with the Recognized And Generally Accepted Good Engineering Practices (RAGAGEP) to have a common language with international standards. Complete the following tasks:

  (1)

  Implement the PSM work as the company's work culture and language, and achieve feasibility

  (2)

  Based on the quantified results of the PSM KPIs, we enhance the key points of implementation and find the factory's own best management practices.

  (3)

  Refine PSM technology and keep up with international practices for a shared language.

  (4)

  CMMS systematically manages equipment, establishes the Group's reliability data, and keeps track of equipment status.

  (5)

  For PSM auditing work, regularly schedule audits and inspect the areas that need to be optimized and improved in the plant to achieve the PDCA cycle.
