Contractors types

If there are other employers on the site, such as contractors, the HAZCOM Program must also state (1) how these other employers will be informed of the site labeling system (2) how they should protect their own employees during normal operating conditions and emergencies and (3) how contractors and contractor-type personnel will be provided access to MSDS. 

This type of contract requires the operator to pay a fixed amount to the contractor upon completion of the well, while the contractor furnishes all the material and labour and handles the drilling operations independently. The difficulty with this approach Is to ensure that a quality well Is delivered to the company since the drilling contractor will want to drill as quickly and cheaply as possible. The contractor therefore should guarantee an agreed measurable quality standard for each well. The guarantee should specify remedial actions which will be implemented should a substandard well be delivered. 

As the name implies the company basically rents the rig and crew on a per day basis. Usually the oil company also manages the drilling operation and has full control over the drilling process. This type of contract actually encourages the contractor to spend as much time as acceptable on location . With increased cost consciousness, day rate contracts have become less favoured by most oil companies. 

Although a single project manager may direct activities throughout a project life, he or she will normally be supported by a project team whose oomposition should reflect the type of project and the experience levels of both company and contractor personnel. The make up and size of the team may change over the life of a project to match the prevailing activity levels in each particular section of the project. 

The choice of contract type will depend upon the type of work, and the level of control which the oil company wishes to maintain. There is a current trend for the oil company to consider the contractor as a partner in the project (partnering arrangements), and to work closely with the contractor at all stages of the project development. The objective of this closer involvement of the contractor is to provide a common incentive for the contractor and the oil company to improve quality, efficiency, safety, and most importantly to reduce cost. This type of contract usually contains a significant element of sharing risk and reward of the project. 

The amount of land required varies as well, not only as a function of the amount of production that is anticipated, but also on the type of culture system that is used. It may take several hectares of static culture ponds to produce the same biomass of animals as one modest size raceway through which large volumes of water are constantly flowed. Constmction costs vary from one location to another. Local labor and fuel costs must be factored into the equation. The experience of contractors in building aquaculture facihties is another factor to be considered. 

Eor this example the cost of the battery limits plant is about four times the purchase cost of the equipment. This number is about two for module I-type plants designed and iastalled by the fine chemicals company itself, and about six for expanded module IV-type plants designed and built by contractors. 

Calcium carbonate is one of the most common filler/extenders used in the paint and coatings industry. Consumer and contractor paint formulas can include products from submicrometer size to coarse mesh sizes. The main function of calcium carbonate in paint is as a low cost extender. It is also used to improve brightness, appHcation properties, stabiHty, and exposure resistance. Coarse products help to lower gloss and sheen or even provide textured finishes. The selection of product type and particle size is deterrnined by the desired performance and cost of the coating. 

Types and Accuracy of Estimates Capital-cost estimates may be required for a variety of reasons, among others to enable feasibility studies to be carried out, to enable a manufacturing company to select from alternative investments, to assist in selection from alternative designs, to provide information for planning the appropriation of capital, and to enable a contractor to bid on a new project. It is therefore essential to achieve the greatest accuracy of estimation with a minimum expenditure of time and money. 

Does contractor maintain an insurance policy of the type and minimum amount as specified m the contracted agreement (Please attach a copy of current insurance certificate.) ... 

Equally important, the contractor s cost-estimation team will have established a sharply honed, systematic approach including all the correct checklists, forms, and report formats designed to preclude oversights. The team will have developed the discipline, as a result of competitive bidding, to produce the kind of final report that fits in correctly with any type of economic evaluation. 

Avoidance of use of solvents, abrasive powders or process chemicals for skin cleaning. Provision of overalls of an appropriate type and their frequent laundering either in-house or by an approved contractor, with a prohibition on their unauthorized removal from the workplace or use in e.g. canteens. Disposable overalls are appropriate in some situations. 

Two types of contractors will be utilized a perforated-plate column for S i and a packed column for Sj. The basic design and cost data that should be employed in this problem are given by El-Halwagi and Manousiouthakis (Chem. Eng. Sci., 45(9), p. 2831, 1990a). 

There are also disadvantages to this type of relationship. It can be costly to the client as mentioned above. An unscrupulous or irresponsible contractor may try to take advantage of the unsophisticated client. The unsophisticated client might accept responsibility that a sophisticated or experienced client might not accept. Legal action may take place. 

Requirements for written safety and health SOPs are found in paragraphs (b)(4)(I) of the HAZWOPER standard. None of the sites audited had developed comprehensive, site-specific SOPs that specify the controls necessary to complete each task. The contractor s SSAHP at Site B did discuss generic task-related hazards and SOPs however, the task-specific SOPs lacked detail. Eor example, the SOPs did not specifically identify the site locations where hazards were likely to occur, nor did they specify the appropriate types of controls. 

Many of the sites did not effectively identify the nature and location of potential emergencies. The contractors SSAHPs at Sites A, B, F, and K did not include site-specific information about the nature and source of potential emergencies. The plan in effect at Site H did not provide a description of the nature and location of potential spill hazards and emergencies, nor did it indicate the type of spill containment equipment available or the locations on site where this and other emergency response equipment was stored. 

One common deficiency in the sites reviewed was the lack of an accurate, up-to-date site work zone map. Of the sites reviewed, only the Site H contractor had established site work zones that were clearly marked on a site zone map. The SSAHP for Site G contained a general discussion of the types of work zones established at the site and the kinds of activities that took place within each zone although the SSAHP... 

Availability of approved, licensed contractors to handle the type of effluents being considered. 

Principal contractor with domestic sub-contractor and supplier. The expression domestic does not necessarily infer housing, although housing contracts can be carried out in this manner. A domestic sub-contractor is a contractor who is appointed by the principal contractor. The client has no relationship with a domestic sub-contractor, unless he interferes with his selection such that the appointment becomes nominated. This type of appointment has become very common. 

At the beginning of the contract, before work starts on site, the main contractor will produce a program of how he intends to carry out the works. In some bids the contractor is invited to state what his program will be if he is successful. This method has merit where the program is very tight. The most common type of program is a... 

Users seeking tender quotations should demand relative running costs and make their decision on the basis of their anticipated running times and so of the expected fuel costs, taking into account the slow inflation of electricity tariffs. Buyers must be aware of the tendency of a contractor to offer only one make or type of equipment, and where this situation arises, alternative tenders should be sought. 

However, most other types of organizations (such as the millions of commercial, institutional, and industrial buildings and facilities globally) do not produce water or steam as a primary product. Rather, they focus on their own market arenas, with the result that, by and large, they lack adequate skilled water treatment expertise and resources internally. These industries therefore employ water treatment service companies as specialist contractors.
