Damage control

The technique of damage control involves the systematic reporting, investigation, costing and control of damage accidents within an organisation. 

The reporting system for damage accidents within an organisation should, as far as possible, be the same as that for injury accidents. The fundamental 

However, in the case of damage accidents, the victim is an inanimate object, physically incapable of reporting the accident. Therefore, there is a need to develop a system by which accidental damage can be highlighted and clearly identified. 

It would appear that the situations likely to give rise to accidents can be divided into three main categories  

There will, of course, be many occasions in practice where it will be necessary to determine whether damage arises from (i) or (iii) above and the opinion of all relevant staff will need to be sought.

Polya.mine-Ba.sed Quaternaries. Another important class of quaternaries are the polyamine-based or polyquats. Generally, polyamine-based quaternaries have been used in the same appHcations as their monomeric counterparts (245). Discussions, including the use of polymeric quaternaries in laundry formulations (246) and in the petroleum industry as damage control agents (247), have been pubHshed. 

Internal procedures (evacuation, communications, shutdown, damage control) External liaison (fire, police, hospitals, neighbours)... 

When flammable materials are used, drain valves should not be located above hot pipework or equipment. A fire on an ethylene plant started when a mixture of water and naphtha was drained through a )4-in. drain valve onto pipework at 315°C. It took a long time to replace damaged control and electric cables [21J. 

Care ill choosing the particular polymer to be employed in a frac-turing treatment is needed because some polymers can interfere with the function of the crosslinker. Some of these polymers are also stable to high temperature steam and have been successfully used to treat high temperature steam injection wells. Recent developments in organic polymer formation damage control polymers are discussed in chapter 10 of this book.
