Good afternoon TUMBLR - April 21th - 2024

''Mr. Plant has owed me a shoe since July 5, 1971."

Mohammedia, Morocco – 2002

It was beginning of June and I got a call from Rome: the kind Mrs. Sette - HR Representative of TECHNIP Italy - asks me if I am interested to on mission to Mohammedia, Morocco. Of course I am! Was my answer. A week later, I am summoned inside the mega headquarters of Technip Italia, in Rome, to carry out the medical examinations and sign the employment contract. At the time I had just bought a new car, an Alfa Romeo 147, so we organized a trip to Rome with my family. It was a pleasant trip and stay, and we had the opportunity to visit Sperlonga and Gaeta.

Sperlonga.

Gaeta.

I left for Casablanca at beginning of July, returning to work in Morocco after 11 years. I arrived at Mohammed V airport and with the ''excuse'' that Technip was aware of my past in Morocco, no one was there to welcome me. A Grand taxi took me to the Hotel Sabah as was previsiosly agreed - I would stay there for a few days, until I'll find a suitable accommodation. In the late afternoon I was joined by the Mission's Head, Mr. De Sanctis, a Roman guy, an elderly person with some walking problems. At dinner he explained to me that the team would be made up of a total of 4 people: a civil supervisor, a mechanic, and an electro-instrumental supervisor

THE PROJECT. The SAMIR refinery in Mohammedia, about 20 km north of Casablanca, was built by Italian Snamprogetti/SAIPEM in the '70s. The property had more recently been acquired by a Joint Venture between a Swedish Investment Fund and a wealthy Saudi investor. The new ownership had decided to modernize the complex, building new production plants next to the existing refinery. For this purpose, TECHNIP was contacted to follow up the partial demolition of the existing plants and part of the Tank Farm, and prepare the areas where the new plants would be built. Our mission was to supervise the demolitions of the tanks, and the preparation of the areas with selected materials capable of withstanding the considerable loads of the new installations. SAMIR had not yet appointed the Main Contractor of the new plants - a contract worth 316 million dollars - TECHNIP Italia had agreed to follow the preparatory works to try to ''get a foot in'' the refinery and undermine others competitors.

MISSION TASK FORCE. In addition to the aforementioned Mr. De Santis, the following people were part of the mission: Mr. Rinaldo Cozzi: originally from Cerro Maggiore (North of Italy). He was our electro-instrumental expert. A decent person, even if a little closed off. He only went out with us during the visits of the Technip manager Ing. Petrillo. I will meet Cozzi again in Shah – Abu Dhabi, where he had a position with SAIPEM pipeline. Mr. Mario Maggi, from Piacenza - a jovial and open guy, he was coming from a previous experience in Senegal. Expert in turbines, compressors etc, in truth he didn't have much to do since we were only talking about demolitions.

LIFE IN MOHAMMEDIA. Mohammedia is the seaside city of Casablanca. Equipped with somewhat old hotels, it is made up of residential areas of holiday villas built in the early 1980s. The city has therefore become a destination for medium-low level tourism, also following the construction of the refinery and the Power Plant overlooking the Atlantic Ocean.

LOGISTIC. After an initial period in which I slept in hotel, I found a decent oceanfront apartment through a real estate agency. Inserted in a beautiful park, the apartment was on the first floor of a holiday condominium. The local owner was living abroad, and had entrusted the agency with the task of managing the rent from the apartment. I really enjoyed it, and I stayed in the same apartment for the entire ten months of my stay in Mohammedia.

Mr. De Sanctis lived in a villa on the Plage Manesmane.

Mr. Cozzi in another house near De Sactis, while Maggi had chosen to stay secluded in a villa further inside the city.

SUB-CONTRACTOR The Contractor that would carry out the work was chosen directly by the Technical Management of the refinery. Mr. Berrada, the Site Manager was a competent and approachable young engineer. The history of this Company is intertwined in a curious and surprising way with the attack that King Hassan II suffered on 16 August 1972, when the Royal Boeing 727, returning from an official trip to France, was attacked by military jets of the Force Armee Royale. According to the reconstruction of the event, the plane was hit on one of the engines, but the pilot managed to make escape the jet unscathed, and thus saving the life of the Sovereign. That pilot's brother was the owner of a small building Contractor from Casablanca. The pilot's exploits made the fortune of his brother, who in a short time became one of the largest entrepreneurs in the construction sector in Morocco, going so far as to build the so-called ''Twin Towers'' of Casablanca, which with their height of 128 meters are have long been the tallest skyscrapers in Morocco.

WORK PROGRESS. The rafinery plot was overlooking the Atlantic Ocean. The progress of the works was quite regular, the demolition of old tanks continued apace and so did the creation of new areas for the new plants. To the South of the plant, divided only by a reception wall, stood the coal power plant built in the 1980s by the Italian Cimi Montubi Group.

FLOOD DISASTER - NOVEMBER 2002. Everything went well until the beginning of November. Yes, it's true, sometimes we had some problems getting the refinery operators out of their offices before proceeding with their demolition. But it had been raining cats and dogs for three days, even though they told me it was the season. On a Saturday morning the SAMIR management received a call from a dam Director, located approximately 45 km away from the plant. The Director warned that since the water inside the artificial reservoir of Barrage Oued El Maleh had now reached the overflow point, it had been decided to open the gates of the dam, and let part of the water flow into the Oued El Maleh , whose course, after reaching the refinery, flowed into the Atlantic between the refinery itself and the Royal Golf Club. The Dam Director estimated that the flood wave would reach the refinery towards the late afternoon of the same day. As a precaution, operations at the plant should have been stopped. A consultation with Saudi ownership categorically ruled out shut down onthe entire complex. The costs of shut down, lost production, and start-up were the reasons given for refusing to stop operations. Never was a decision more wrong.

At 3.00 PM order had been given to leave the plant. The water from the Ouadi El Maleh had already overcome the barrier set up at the entrance to the plant, and was spreading throughout the area. The area of our offices, lower than the rest of the refinery, was already heavily flooded. We returned to Mohammedia with in mind the worried faces of the operators who were preparing to spend the night in the plant. It was around 9.45 in the evening when the first explosions were heard. I went out onto the apartment balcony and looked towards the South: I could see some flashes that lit up the dark night. Firefighter and Red Crescent sirens. And then an explosion louder than all the others: we then learned that a diesel tank had been blown up. We would find the roof of the tank thrown like a giant frisbee 150 meters away. The fire had attacked the power station, and triggered the explosion when the water reached the high voltage bars. Most of the utilities were destroyed that night. Thanks to the work of firefighters who also came from Casablanca, and of the refinery operators, the fire was contained and did not reach the fuel depot area where there were dozens of tanks full of oil and diesel: it would have been a Biblical disaster.

Two operators lost their lives in the accident, and numerous were injured. When the refinery was made safe, the highest authorities in Morocco came to visit, first and foremost King Mohammed VI. The refinery management asked us to participate in the damage assessment, alongside a specially established insurance team. At the end of the survey, which lasted weeks, the damages were estimated at 157 million dollars. During the cleaning operations from the mud that had invaded the entire area of the plant, many teams of volunteers showed up after King Mohamed VI's appeal on TV. What remained was the regret of a disaster caused once again by a decision dictated by mere selfishness. The questions I asked myself at the time was: ''In his country, would the Saudi owner of the refinery have made the same decision, that is, not to stop the plant?''

END OF MISSION. At the end of April, the enormous cleaning operation of the refinery had been completed, even if production had not been able to resume due to the enormous damage caused by the flood and the subsequent fire. Our work to prepare the areas was coming to an end, and the most disparate rumors were circulating about the name of the Main Contractor who would win the contract for the new installation. The sentiment was that they would not be awarded to TECHNIP Italia, regardless of our performance during the Early Works.

Italian Giant SAIPEM was awarded the project.

Flood control sump pumps are designed to manage excess water in both residential and commercial settings, preventing water from flooding basements, underground parking lots, and other vulnerable areas. These pumps are installed in sump pits, where they automatically activate to pump water out when it reaches a certain level, directing it away from critical infrastructure.

In regions where the water table is high, such as parts of Dubai and Abu Dhabi, Flood Control Sump pumps are critical for protecting properties and assets from water damage. The pumps are designed to handle large volumes of water, ensuring that floodwaters are efficiently drained before they can cause significant damage to buildings, electrical systems, or equipment.

Choosing the Right Pumps for Your Needs

When selecting pumps for construction or flood control projects in the UAE, it is crucial to choose equipment that is not only effective but also durable enough to withstand the challenging conditions of the region. High-pressure pumps, for example, can be ideal for applications that require consistent power and reliability, including in Vibro-Compaction and flood control systems.

Both Vibro-Compaction and Flood Control Sump pumps should be chosen based on the specific requirements of the project, such as the soil type, water table level, and potential flood risks. It is also important to select pumps from reputable manufacturers who offer quality products built for high-performance and long-lasting results in extreme conditions.

Conclusion

In conclusion, Vibro-Compaction pumps and Flood Control Sump pumps are essential tools for maintaining the safety, stability, and success of construction and flood prevention projects in the UAE. By utilizing advanced pump technologies, businesses and municipalities can ensure that their infrastructure is built on solid ground and protected from the risks of flooding. Investing in high-quality equipment, such as those available from trusted suppliers, can make a significant difference in achieving long-term operational success and safeguarding valuable assets.

Whether you're involved in construction, property management, or flood control, understanding the importance of these pumps and choosing the right solutions is key to ensuring a safe and resilient environment.

Protecting Workers with the Danger Zone Alert System: A Smart Solution for Fall-from-Height Safety

Safety in High Hazardous Industries of Construction, Mining, Manufacturing and Facilities with Danger Zone Warning System. At the workplace, fall-from-height safety is important. It has become mandatory in most hazardous sectors, especially those in the building of new projects and mining or the various operations within a factory in case of facilities, to safeguard individuals engaged within its compounds and achieve zero casualties. According to the Occupational Safety and Health Administration, falls are still the second most common cause of fatal occupational injuries at construction sites.

Given the severity of this issue, companies operating in places such as Hong Kong, Singapore, Dubai, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and Abu Dhabi, where industries are booming, are looking for solutions that can enhance safety measures and minimize workplace accidents.

Understanding the Dangers of Falls from Heights

Falls from heights are those accidents in which a worker loses his balance or falls into an open, elevated zone. Such incidents occur when workers are on scaffolding, rooftops, ladders, or suspended platforms. Reports have suggested that approximately 30 percent of all construction fatalities are attributed to fall accidents. The dangers associated with this type of accident are not only severe but also unpredictable. Proper systems for monitoring risky behaviors and unsafe zones are not in place, which makes it very hard to ensure worker safety.

Why Do You Need a Smart Safety Solution?

Traditional safety systems typically rely on human observation or manual inspection. These are always reactive systems, meaning that the workers are placed at risk of exposure before they can be placed in a position of safety.

How Does the Danger Zone Alert System Work?

Real-Time Monitoring: The system continuously scans the worksite with cameras. Cameras detect potential hazards, analyze workers' movements and environmental conditions, and help identify situations in which a fall might occur.

Instant Alerts: The system instantly sends alerts to site supervisors and workers when it identifies a potential fall hazard through an application or by direct notifications. Alerts may range from entering a danger zone to improper usage of personal protective equipment (PPE) among workers.

Configurable Danger Zones: Sites can configure various "danger zones" on the site, including edges, scaffolding, or other elevated work platforms. The system monitors these danger zones and alerts workers to falling risks off an unprotected edge or falling from unsafe factors.

Improved Compliance: A large percentage of falls are caused by a lack of the correct safety measures for workers. The Danger Zone Alert System ensures compliance because it triggers a signal for site managers when safety procedures such as harness usage or fall barriers are not in place.

Key Benefits for Your Workforce

Implementing the Danger Zone Alert System in your company will yield several benefits in the area of safety, aside from operational efficiency. Some of the key advantages of using this smart system include:

1. Decreased Chance of Falls

Real-time alerts and continuous monitoring lower the possibility of falls from heights since it give employees prompt feedback about unsafe behaviors or hazardous zones. Such a system will ensure that necessary preventive measures are taken even when near-miss accidents have been detected.

2. Increased Safety Compliance

For instance, safety procedures for employees become much easier to manage as this would include using proper PPE or not crossing areas next to unprotected edges. Enforcement of compliance is thus effective in making the entire workforce stay safe with automatic alerts directly transmitted to supervisors.

3. Improved Productivity

When workers are secure, they can do their work effectively without any fear of accidents. Better morale and more efficient working due to a safe working environment will reduce downtime brought about by safety incidents.

4. Cost Savings

One fall death costs more than a million dollars. These are only the financial costs of medical and legal fees. The firm saves on this count: reduction in the number of accidents through lower medicine costs, attorneys' costs, insurance premiums, or work stoppage.

5. AI-Powered Insights

It prevents accidents but also offers the organization valuable data that would improve safety on the job site. Over time, AI can analyze patterns and assist companies in making better decisions concerning safety policies and equipment.

Conclusion

Worker safety in a fast-paced and risk-prone world should be everybody's priority today. AI and smart safety systems protect workers from falls and other hazards better than ever. Any industry concerned with fall-from-height safety would certainly require the Danger Zone Alert System. Businesses can generate safer work sites, gain employee confidence, reduce incidents, and hence contribute toward the growth and success of the business through AI.

This might be the future of operation, as using this technology will make sure that every day, your workers come back home without any incidents and your business runs with minimum unexpected delays and costs associated with accidents.

Good afternoon TUMBLR - April 24th - 2024

''Mr. Plant has owed me a shoe since July 5, 1971."

Atyrau Kazakhstan – Dec 2004 – Oct 2010 - Kashagan Development Project

Part 3

MAIN WORKS The Early Works were coming to an end, and the ''MAIN WORKS'' were about to start, i.e. the works for the construction of the actual plant where the crude oil coming from the wells located in the Caspian Sea would be ''stabilized'' to then be sent through a specially built pipeline (it had to connect to the transport system already existing between Kazakhstan and Russia). Or transported with tanks mounted on railway wagons (a 20km link road was being built by a local company which will connect the plant to the Kazakhstan railway network). An old acquaintance arrived as Client Site Manager, Mr. Daniele Nazzani. Former SAIPEM Manager, I met him during the selection interview for the Abu Dhabi Taweelah Water project. That day I was sitting in those tiny rooms in the fifth office building of San Donato, when this large figure more than 2 meters high entered (he had to fold his head sideways to avoid hitting the door). He had made a good impression on me, even though I had sensed that he was potentially ''dangerous''. And once he had settled in Atyrau I had confirmation of this quite quickly. Nazzani immediately began a ''cleaning work'' all those elements that he considered ''superfluous'' to the Kashagan project. Without too much preamble, he had them called to the office and without ever even looking at them in the face, he told them that ''you time here has 'expired''. With these premises, we were called to a meeting to clarify certain results of the cracking tests of the concrete we were using for the foundations of the plant's Main Pipe rack. Participants, in addition to myself, Nazzani, the AGIP Deputy Construction Manager (a Canadian named Dick Parker), the Director of our Company Giorgio Borchia and the AGIP Quality Manager. There was a brief introduction of the topic by the AGIP QA/QC Manager and then Borchia took the floor to explain our reasons, but after he had pronounced the first words suddenly Nazzani stood up and from the top of his 2.00 meters I start shouting ''ENOUGH…ENOUGH…IT'S ENOUGH……'' and lifting the table like a twig he overturn it, throwing all the papers and drawings on the ground, leaving the meeting room and us astonished and speechless, to wonder with our eyes what had happened!!! At that moment I was consulting some papers in front of me, thought that the guy was hit with some sort of heart or epileptic attack…. We were all extremely embarrassed. Mr. Parker – an elderly gentleman – apologized on behalf of AGIP and ended the meeting. While going back to the city, Mr. Borchia, we commented on what had happened, looking for a plausible explanation for Nazzani's behaviour. Even once we arrived at our offices, we continued to discuss the Site Manager's drama with Mr. Nurlan, the President of our Company . In the end, after much discussion, the only ''plausible'' explanation was that, mindful of the old wrinkles of the Abu Dhabi Taweela Water project (where Borchia held the role of Deputy General Director of S.A.C. Main Contractor of SAIPEM) Giorgio had had several disputes with Nazzani, Deputy Director of the project at the time. In conclusion, the origin of the incident could be understood, but not Nazzan's behavior, which was absolutely unacceptable. He had allowed himself, with his action, to gratuitously insult not only Borchia, but also what our Director represented at that moment, namely a Kazakh-Italian Company that was regularly appointed as AGIP's Contractor on the Kashagan project.

Two days after Nazzani's absurd scene, an official letter arrived from AGIP in which we were ordered to return the Borchia's access badge to the site, and an instruction from now on not to send letters and correspondence with his signature. An act to which I tried to make our company react with actions that could have led to Nazzani's removal. Unfortunately we were not influential enough to achieve this result, and therefore almost throughout the entire course of the Kashagan project, we had to suffer the harassment of this individual. I say almost because at the end of 2008 it was us, through good relations with the local KGB, who saved Nazzani from police arrest.. As we warned them in time, Nazzani and the Procurement Manager (another Italian guy) managed to board the Atyrau – Amsterdam flight at 7.00 am, thus escaping arrest. The charge was tax fraud for non-payment of taxes to the Kazakh government, and also illegal importation of helicopters. Two very serious crimes, whose arrest warrant was extended to all CIS (Commonwealth of Independent States) countries, thus making many of the former Soviet Union countries off limits for the two wanted men.

RETURN TO KAZAKHSTAN ON JANUARY 2006 The AGIP charter flight continued to be the fastest way to get to and from Kazahstan. I had the return flight booked from Malpensa and on January 7th I showed up regularly for boarding. Luckily my name was on the list and I boarded the flight. I noticed that the plane had changed, I asked a guy sitting beside me why:

This is a plane from the Polish company LOT specially rented because it is suitable for landing on snowy runways. The landing gear is much lower and therefore the plane can land even if it has recently snowed on the airport and the runway is not clear.

Ahh…ok…. Reassured about the possible snow landing at Atyrau airport, we took off on time. The flight was at night, and when we reached the Caucasus, the Commander warned on the loudspeaker that a strong snowfall had hit the entire Atyrau region, so the airport had been declared closed.

But why - I said to the AGIP guy sitting next to me - didn't you rent this plane because it would have to land in all conditions?

Yes but……evidently the snowfall is too heavy….

A few minutes later the Commander announced that we would land at Nalchik airport, and then we would go to sleep in Mineralnye Vody, a town in Southern Russia. The Odyssey was just beginning. From Mineralnye Vody the next day a bus took us to Stavropol, where we boarded a train to Astrakhan, about 560 km away. The train was comfortable, with 3-seater sleeping compartments – the journey lasted 11 hours and when we arrived in Astrakhan it was night. At Astrakhan station another train was waiting for us, to travel the 360 km that separated us from our final destination. It was late morning when we arrived exhausted at Atyrau central station. Mr. Talgat was waiting for me on the platform, I offered the AGIP guy a lift home, seeing as his colleagues hadn't bothered to come to pick him up. He went down to the River Palace hotel residence and while he thanked me from the rolled down window I said to him:

It's really true that when you from AGIP are involved, Murphy's first law almost always comes true. And I left without waiting for his reply.

POLICE The Kazakh police is known locally as ''Gaik'.' Given the low wages, the gaik' spends his day trying to make ends meet. The most coveted positions are in the evening patrols, especially those on Saturday evenings and before the several national holidays. There are national holidays for every taste: the President's birthday - the declaration of Independence - the Christian Christmas - the New Year - the Orthodox Christmas - the ''old New Year'' (during the Soviet period the new year was the 9th January) Nowriz (21 March the beginning of spring when the Kazakh nomads released their sheep into the steppe) Muhammad's birthday - Kurban Ait (Muslim Eid el Fitr) and many others that I can't remember now. On the evening of the eve of these holidays, where in theory there are more possible drunk drivers (but in Kazakhstan everyone also drinks throughout the week) the police deploys all its forces, especially near clubs and restaurants. Sometimes the managers of restaurants or clubs are equipped with radios by the police themselves, to signal the exit of customers who have been drinking. Naturally, whoever reports the chicken to be plucked is entitled to a percentage of the stolen goods. Of course I had my troubles with gaiks too. One of their favorite locations was before and after the bridge that connects Europe to Asia, crossing the Ural River. It is an mandatory passage from one part of the city to the other, and there is no escape from there. It was a Saturday and they stopped me, it was around midnight, while I was driving the company's black Prado. Naturally the policeman immediately shines the flashlight in my face and says the inevitable:

You drank!

No Sir…. I only drank Coca Cola….

No.. you drank alcohol, I can see it in your eyes!

No Sir…. I don't drink alcohol…I can't drink, I had a bad surgery recently and I can't drink, as per doctor's orders.

I also had surgery and now I drink twice as much as before! And in doing so he lifts his jacket and shows me a belly covered in horrible scars… The pantomime went on for a good half hour, then realizing that I had no intention of slipping any banknotes into his car, he announced to me:

Shall we go to the clinic??!! This means at least wasting a couple of hours of sleep.

Let's go to the clinic, I said.

Are you sure you want to go to the clinic? If you test positive then I will have to arrest you, and the judge will not be there until Monday…

The sooner we go, the sooner we finish this story – I conclude So we left for the clinic, where once we arrive a sleepy lady doctor takes my blood to proceed with the alcohol test. While the doctor does the test, the policeman was walking nervously and every now and then he was coming closer, and pointing his finger at me exclaims:

You drank! I look at him with a half smile. Then suddenly I see the figure of the doctor reflected in the glass waving a finger in a sign of ''no'' in the direction of the policeman. Whereupon I approach the policeman with my hand outstretched, to claim the key to my Prado. He slams me on the table with one final statement:

You tested negative….BUT YOU DRINK!! I left, throwing him a ''Spakoine noche brigadier''.(Good night brigadier).
