Refinery & Petrochemical Fall Protection

The miles of piping and pipe racks associated with the petrochemical industry expose refinery workers to fall hazards when adequate fall protection is not in place. Oil and gas refineries are in need of constant repair, maintenance, painting, and pipe re-routing. Most of this work is done at heights, with few or no structural elements overhead from which to install fall protection. Some sections of pipe rack may expose workers to a fall hazard during maintenance, and yet, these same sections of pipe might be visited once every ten years. As a safety directory for an oil and gas refinery, how do you balance OSHA compliance and protection of maintenance personnel with the need to provide cost effective fall protection covering an enormous length of exposed pipe?
