Description

Provides a basis for the development of a Safety and Operating Plan, (or Safety Case) for gas industry network operators. Describes the fundamental elements to be addressed in the preparation of a Safety and Operating Plan by a distribution network operator for the safe and reliable operation of new and/or existing gas reticulation networks supplying fuel gases suitable for domestic, commercial or industrial utilization.

Scope

This Standard provides, for gas industry network operators, a basis for the development of a Safety and Operating Plan, (or Safety Case), referred to as a ‘Plan’.
The Standard describes the fundamental elements to be addressed in the preparation of a Plan (or Undertaking) by a distribution network operator for the safe and reliable operation of new and/or existing gas reticulation networks supplying fuel gases suitable for domestic, commercial or industrial utilization. The extent of application of these fundamental elements is a matter of judgement according to the operational issues. The Standard does not address a Plan for systems covered by AS 5601.
The Standard is directed primarily at the Plan, which would in turn refer to other documents for supporting details and practices. AS 4645 describes the management and operation of a gas network. The relevant design and construction Standards i.e., AS 1697, AS 3723 and other appropriate national, industry and company Standards would be referenced in other documents according to the adopted framework.
Where an operator wishes to include transmission system elements within the Plan, AS 2885.1, AS 2885.2 and AS 2885.3 provide relevant requirements.
A Plan may be of reduced size, or may not be necessary, for distribution systems located on a limited area or within one property.
