Bryan McGlinchy

Diving Manager

Bryan McGlinchy

Diving Manager

• Bryan joined the IMCA secretariat as a Technical Adviser – Diving in February 2012 from the UK Health and Safety Executive.

• At the Executive, Bryan worked as a front-line inspector, initially in the metals and minerals sector and then for more than 12 years as a Diving Specialist Inspector. In the latter role, he was responsible for the inspection of all sectors of the diving industry in Great Britain and for the investigation of accidents, incidents and complaints related to diving at work, both onshore and offshore.

• Bryan has a wealth of experience in the offshore diving industry that combined with his safety background makes him a valued member of the IMCA team, where he focuses on the work programme of IMCA’s diving committee.

IMCA Diving Supervisor CPD Scheme Update

©IMCA 2020

• IMCA Diving Supervisors’ CPD

• From Q1 2021 CPD for Diving Supervisors becomes mandatory.

• All IMCA Diving Supervisors who wish to maintain the validity of their certificates will need to undertake appropriate CPD going forward.

• IMCA has developed a user-friendly App to facilitate the process.

To achieve “in-date” status using the IMCA Diving Sup. CPD App:

1. Register on our website and download the App from the Apple or Google App stores.

2. Complete the four knowledge Units issued during 2020.

3. Complete any outstanding 2021 knowledge Units released prior to your registration.

This will bring the supervisors’ certificates to “in-date” status.

To remain in-date, IMCA Diving Supervisors will have to complete each new knowledge Unit issued as required before the next quarter’s knowledge Unit is issued.

Keeping IMCA Diving Supervisor Certificates In-date

©IMCA 2020

• IMCA Diving Supervisors who fail to keep up to date in the manner required by the scheme will invalidate their certificates.

• To revalidate a certificate, the scheme member only needs to complete any outstanding Units.

• A verification system will be in place for diving contractors and client companies to check the current validity of diving supervisor certificates.

Have All the Diving Supervisors You Employ Registered for the App?

©IMCA 2020

• International oil and gas producers are fully aware, and fully supportive, of this initiative.

• So far, 1021 Diving Supervisors have registered world-wide (573 ADS, 448 BDS).

• It is imperative that all active IMCA Diving Supervisors register for the App and participate in the programme ASAP. PLEASE CHECK THAT THE DIVING SUPERVISORS YOU EMPLOY ARE ALL REGISTERED & PART OF THE PROGRAMME.

• Supervisors can register for the scheme here:

https://www.imca-int.com/certification/diving-supervisor-cpd/register/

• Detailed information about the IMCA Diving Supervisor CPD scheme is available here:

An update on the revision of IMCA D 024 DESIGN for saturation (bell) diving systems

©IMCA 202013

• It is intended that IMCA D 024 Rev. 3 will be published in Dec. 2020 or Jan. 2021.

• The update reflects decisions made at the Nov. 2016 DESIGN seminar and also includes changes recommended by the DESIGN workgroup and the DDMC.

• The following documents will also be published:

− IMCA D 018 Rev. 2 Code of practice for the initial and periodic examination, testing and certification of diving plant and equipment;

− IMCA D 023 Rev. 2 DESIGN for surface orientated (air) diving systems

− IMCA D 040 Rev. 2 DESIGN for mobile/portable surface supplied systems

− IMCA D 053 Rev. 1 DESIGN for the hyperbaric reception facility (HRF) forming part of a hyperbaric evacuation system (HES);

− IMCA D 063 DESIGN for Hyperbaric Rescue Unit Life Support Packages.

Location of Items in IMCA D 024 Rev. 2 Edition

Summary of Changes Made for IMCA D 024 Rev. 3 Edition

Reason

IMCA D 024; Section 2 Dive Control; Item 7.12 Gauge Calibration

Text revised to include the following note:

“Note: The frequency and nature of the calibration of pressure sensors and gauges integral to automated functions may be defined in a scheme prepared by a competent person.”

To allow companies with modern complex diving systems to define the frequency and nature of the calibration of pressure sensors and gauges integral to automated functions in line with the recommendations of competent persons.

IMCA D 024; Section 2 Dive Control; Item 9.5 Electrical Testing

Note: This change affects all electrical and component testing requirements in IMCA D 024.

Identical changes elsewhere in the document are not listed in this summary.

Text revised to read:

“Visual examination, function test (including protective devices) plus continuity and resistance tests of all cables and electrical equipment within the last 6 months OR in accordance with a detailed electrical testing schedule prepared by a competent person”.

To allow companies with modern complex diving systems to create their own electrical testing procedures and methodologies in line with the recommendations of competent persons.

Diving System Assessment - General

©IMCA 2020

• IMCA D 024 Rev. 2 contains the following requirement:

• IMCA D 024 Rev. 3 will contain the following requirement:

Diving System Automated Control Systems Assessment

©IMCA 2020

• IMCA D 024 Rev. 3 will also contain the following requirement:

Notes on Previous Slide

©IMCA 2020

• In modern times a detailed diving system assessment must include the assessment of automated control systems within the diving system – surface supplied or saturation. These requirements will be in D 024 and D 023.

• The process is straightforward. Identify, categorise, and then undertake detailed assessment only where required.

• Only those automated functions that are deemed to be safety critical should undergo detailed assessment.

• Many traditional or hybrid systems will contain few, if any, safety critical automated functions.

• The aim is to make sure that all diving contractors know what automated systems they have in their diving systems and what they do.

• The aim is also to make sure that where safety critical automated functions are identified, they are subject to detailed assessment to achieve and demonstrate “freedom from unacceptable risk”.

Additional Guidance

©IMCA 2020

• There will be additional notes to assist Members and auditors under the requirements in 2B.1, 2B.2, and 2B.3, but these are still being finalised.

• In addition, IMCA will be publishing a short supporting guidance document to help Contractor Members make appropriate arrangements to produce systematic assessments of automated control systems within their diving systems that will satisfy the relevant requirements in IMCA’s new DESIGN documents.

Well drilled in the wrong place breaches railway tunnel

• At a large construction site in a big city, contractors drilled a well in the wrong place - into the wall of a busy railway tunnel, causing flooding

—The decision to drill the well was made by the contractors without the approval of the client;

—The positioning of the well was conducted without the control and validation of a surveyor.

Doesn’t have to be marine contracting

“Thirty centimetres of safety” - rail industry high potential near miss

• In a train breakdown at rush hour, the driver began to evacuate passengers to track level within 30cm of the live electric conductor rail

—The driver was given instructions by control room staff without a clear understanding of the situation

—The driver and the signaller did not have a clear understanding about the safe actions required

—The driver was on his own under considerable stress, which affected his decision making
