Hazard Identification and Task Risk
Assessment (HITRA)
Job / Tasks / Task Steps
HITRA Transition and Communication Pack 2
HITRA Transition and Communication Packs
• BPXA HITRA Transition and Communication Packs
− In support of transition from current risk
assessment practices to HITRA or Hazard
Identification Task Risk Assessment.
− To supplement the OE HITRA Training.
• These HITRA Transition and Communication Packs include:
− Sources of Energy (SoE)
− Jobs, Tasks, and Task Steps
− Hazards, Consequences, Controls
Today we
will cover??
− HITRA Transition Summary

Objectives
• Why Change to HITRA?
• Difference between Job Tasks and Task Steps
• A Practical Example from Work Order to Job Task to Task Steps
• Job Task Level in the Planning Process
– Job Task Planning Certificate (JTPC)
~ Tool used in CoW Planning process
• L1 TRA example of Task Steps

Alaska Region: Why Change Now?
− To align BPXA Risk Assessment Processes with Upstream practice.
− HITRA is a mindset of how we will conduct risk assessments and is the way
we do business
− Systematic (repeatable and reproducible); common language (uses Task Risk
Assessment Table (TRAT))
− This is how e-CoW documents Risk Assessments; e-CoW will be simpler,
include better options, and one technique covering all tasks;
− L1 & L2 TRA for all permitted work
− Once a L1 or L2 TRA has been created it may be utilized again for the same
or similar task
− Option for low risk (routine) work based on a risk assessed procedure,
approved annually
− Used for Non-permitted work
Risk Assessment is a primary focus area for BPXA.
– CoW incidents are still high as a result of inadequate risk assessment

HITRA Requirements
• In the HITRA process jobs are risk assessed at the
Task Level
• HITRA requires a task to be broken down into
Task Steps in the risk assessment (L1 or L2)
− Task Steps will form a framework to systematically
examine an individual work assignment (Task) to
identify the hazards, evaluate the risks and specify
appropriate controls

Job / Tasks / Task Step(s)
JOB – This is what would be on the Work Order.
For example:
Overhaul Crude Oil Pump P-02-201C
TASKS – This is what would go into the Permit Job Description.
For example:
Install Blinds on Crude Oil Pump P-02-201C
TASK STEPS – The sequential activities required to complete
a JOB TASK.
1. Confirm isolation is complete
and a safe energy state
For example:
has been achieved
2. Disconnect pump from suction and discharge lines
3. Blind suction and discharge lines

Task Level in Planning Process
(training example)
Job Task Planning Certificate
Example of Completed L1 TRA
● Breaking tasks down into steps:
− Allow us to systematically identify the hazards,
evaluate the risks and prescribe appropriate controls
● Only list the critical steps necessary to perform to task?
− Preparing for the job (i.e. stage equipment, mobilize)
− Execute the task (many times more than 1 task step)
− Completing the job (i.e. clean-up, demobilize)
