8 Doc. No.: Page: 4 of INTRODUCTION 2.1. Purpose The purpose of this Safe Work Practices (SWP) manual is to establish safety and environmental objectives, goals, and performance measures. These Safe Work Practices and the SEMS work together to accomplish a comprehensive Safety and Environmental Management System that will enable Talos to achieve excellence in health, safety, and environmental management. The safety and well-being of all personnel working at every Talos location is a top priority. A healthy environment and safe workplace are critical to our overall business success. This manual outlines the basic health, safety, and environmental requirements. A manual of this size cannot encompass all requirements for every situation, but does provide a set of rules that, if applied properly will protect people, the environment, and our assets. This manual is not intended to replace programs, procedures, and guidelines that are in place to support site-specific work practices, but will serve as a guide to those more detailed documents. This SWP manual follows the most current provisions of any applicable Federal, State, or Local regulations of Flag State requirements. Our challenge is to continually improve our SWP performance. If situations arise that are not covered by this manual, discuss them with your supervisor, and seek clarification on what is expected Scope This SWP manual applies to operations of Talos Energy, LLC (Talos) and all operating subsidiaries, including Energy Resources Technology GOM (ERT), Talos Energy Offshore (TEO), and Talos Gulf Coast Onshore (TGCO) Objective The objective of this manual is to work in conjunction with the Talos Safety and Environmental Management System (SEMS) documents to establish a comprehensive company HSE management program. Talos is committed to protecting the safety and well-being for all of its personnel. A healthy environment and safe workplace are critical to our overall business success. This manual outlines the basic HSE requirements. This manual does not cover all requirements for every situation, but does provide a set of rules that when applied properly will protect our people, the environment, and our assets. The objective of this manual is to serve as a guide in support of the programs, procedures, and guidelines that are currently in place and in support of site-specific work practices and detailed documents.

9 Doc. No.: Page: 5 of 108 This manual compliments conformance to governmental and local HSE rules and regulations and serves as a reference source for maintaining uniform HSE practices. Talos recognizes that in the workplace conditions may arise, which are not covered by this manual, and encourages all personnel to discuss any ideas or concerns with their supervisor and when needed to seek clarification on what is expected. The SWP manual has five principal objectives: 2.4. Control the influences that human error and poor organization have on accidents. Continuously improve the Talos safety and environmental record. Encourage performance-based operating practices. Collaborate efforts to promote offshore safety and environmental protection. Effectively communicate the Talos safety and environmental objectives, goals, and performance measures. Roles and Responsibilities Manager and/or Supervisor Responsibilities Each manager and/or supervisor is responsible for ensuring that Talos HSE guidelines are implemented and maintained at all times in the workplace. The manager and/or supervisor are best positioned to promote a safety-conscious working environment. Manager and/or supervisor responsibilities include the following: Understanding and supporting Talos' safety and health policies, programs, and procedures Setting a safe example for employees to follow Communicating safe work programs and procedures to each employee, visitors, and contractors Observing employee work practices Ensuring that employees are properly trained Conducting and documenting regularly scheduled safety meetings Confirming safety inspections are conducted and documented to ensure safety equipment is in good working order Ensuring accidents are reported and appropriately investigated in a timely manner, and recommending appropriate corrective actions to take Staying current on the operation of new equipment Ensuring that procedures are updated as needed Evaluating and documenting contractor HSE performance Holding employees accountable to established Talos HSE rules and guidelines through performance reviews, qualifications, counseling, or disciplinary action

10 Doc. No.: Page: 6 of 108 Reporting and investigating incidents, injuries, and near misses Employee Responsibilities It is critical to the success of the Talos philosophy that each employee recognize that everyone has a personal and joint responsibility with his or her supervisor to contribute to a safe work performance. All company and contractor employees must be able to safely and acceptably perform assigned duties without any limitations due to health or the use or effects of alcohol, illicit drugs, fatigue, or medications. Employee responsibilities include: Review, familiarize, and comply with Talos HSE programs, procedures, and guidelines. Perform job duties safely; this includes setting a safe example, properly using safety equipment and devices, using safe work practices, and keeping equipment and tools in good working order. Seek supervisory guidance when unsure of correct work procedures. Take an active part in safety programs, including participation in safety meetings and activities, incident investigations, and completing all required training. Immediately report every accident, as well as unsafe work conditions or practices to the manager or supervisor. Accepting the obligation and responsibility to make and keep the workplace safe and free of recognized hazards. Learning the hazards of each job and take the necessary precautions and make suggestions for corrective actions or improvements. Assisting less experienced personnel to work safely and understand Talos' HSE expectations.

11 Doc. No.: Page: 7 of INCIDENT REPORTING An incident is an unexpected event that typically happens with no advance warning. The nature of the incident dictates the action that follows. All incidents must be reported, and shall include but not be limited to the following: Occupational injury or illness Non-occupational injury or illness First aid Fatality Fire Leak or spill Mystery sheen Material loss Man overboard Lost time accident Restricted work Medical Refused treatment Vehicle incident Vessel incident Employees must immediately report any occupational injury or illness to their supervisor, no matter how slight the injury or illness may be. The supervisor shall review the circumstances related to the injury or illness and complete an IRT Report as soon as possible, preferably on the same day as the incident. Contractors shall provide the Talos site supervisor with an immediate verbal report of every injury and/or illness. The site supervisor shall review the injury and/or illness and complete an IRT Report. Serious injury or illnesses (fatality or multiple injuries) must be reported by phone as soon as possible to the head office, which will in turn notify the appropriate authorities. Names and addresses of witnesses to accidents or injuries must be included on the report. The reporting of an incident does not constitute an incident investigation; it is only an initial report of the facts known at the time the incident occurred. An incident investigation may be conducted, as determined by the severity or potential severity of the incident. External reports may be required by governmental agencies. Refer to Talos Energy SEMS Manual, Talos-COMP-0001 Section 2.11 Incident Investigation for more information on incident investigation and follow-up.

12 4.0 PERSONNEL SAFETY Safe Work Practices Manual Doc. No.: Page: 8 of Offshore Transportation Safety The offshore environment can present unique hazards. This section provides an overview of travel to and from offshore platforms and rigs Reporting in at the Shore Base Specific requirements for reporting in at the Shore Base are as follows: Report to the dispatcher or gate guard at the shore base or dock to arrange transportation, which will be supplied by helicopter or boat. A Passenger Manifest must be completed with the following minimum information: - Company name - Passenger name - Destination - Date of travel - Passenger weight and Baggage weight (Accurate weights are extremely important on helicopter flights due to the weight and balance requirements of the aircraft.) All passengers must have the following basic PPE before departing offshore: - Hard hat - Safety toed shoes or boots - Safety glasses with approved side shields - FRC - Hearing protection if required All passengers shall wear long pants, closed-toed shoes, and sleeved shirts when traveling offshore. First-time passengers must view the helicopter safety video provided by the transportation company before boarding the aircraft Reporting in at an Offshore Platform or Rig Specific requirements for reporting in at the Offshore Platform or Rig are as follows: Report immediately to the PIC of the structure and sign in. If you are not given a site-specific orientation, ask for one. Listen carefully to all instructions as platform or rig procedures are explained: - Your assigned station and duties - Emergency alarms and procedures, exit routes, and emergency reporting locations, You should become familiar with the Station Bill and structure, if authorized.

13 Doc. No.: Page: 9 of 108 Do not throw anything overboard and follow all rules for pollution prevention. Immediately report any leaking oil, gas, or other hazards to the facility PIC Offshore Helicopter Safety This section addresses general precautions needed in offshore helicopter situations. The pilot will give a preflight briefing on the specific helicopter and can answer any additional questions you have for the flight offshore. Non-emergency helicopter night flights and long-line operations require supervisor s approval. Contact your safety department representative for special precautions for both operations Precautions When boarding or disembarking the helicopter: (See Figure 1 Helipad Diagram below) Keep clear of the landing zone (LZ) or helipad until the helicopter has landed. On offshore structures, passengers must not stand on heliport until pilot gives the signal that the aircraft has safely landed and it is ready to be safely approached and boarded by passengers. Never walk under the tail rotor or tail boom of the helicopter. Do not touch any exterior part of the helicopter except door handles. Bend over when approaching or departing the helicopter. - Always be aware of the main rotor. - Always be aware of the blade clearance. Keep a firm grip on hand-carried articles when approaching or leaving the helicopter. Provide the pilot with a passenger manifest before boarding the helicopter. - Declare any magnetic or hazardous materials. Instructions from the pilot must be followed. - The pilot shall provide passengers with a complete safety briefing, including use of life vests, if required. Every crew boarding the helicopter must have one English-speaking member. Enter aircraft using only the step provided. - Take care not to damage floats or skids. Never throw anything out of the helicopter; this can cause damage to the rotor systems. Do not distract the pilot with unnecessary conversation or actions. Hearing protection must be worn during helicopter flights, including boarding or disembarking. As a front-seat passenger, you should keep an eye out for other aircraft. - Do not sleep or read newspapers or magazines.

14 Doc. No.: Page: 10 of 108 Figure 1 Helipad Diagram During Helicopter Operations Only the pilot or trained personnel shall refuel the helicopter. Helicopters shall not land on offshore structures that are operating under radio silence. All cargo shall be secured in baggage compartment of aircraft or tied down before takeoff. Never carry blasting caps and blasting agents (dynamite) in the aircraft at the same time. - When carrying any explosive substance, ensure it is in a proper container with authorized labels. Helicopters shall not land on offshore structures that are operating cranes. Before the helicopter can land the crane operator must: - Secure the load. - Position and secure the boom against swinging so that there will be no interference with flight operations; boom down if possible. - Signal the pilot that the crane is secure. The crane operator should not be at the control station during landing or takeoff operations, unless in direct contact with the helicopter pilot. Cell phone use is prohibited during flight.

15 Doc. No.: Page: 11 of Boat Safety The captain is in complete charge of the boat, passengers, loading and unloading procedures, storage of luggage and cargo, seating arrangements, transportation of fish or ice chests, and smoking restrictions. The captain has the complete authority to refuse passage to anyone. CAUTION: NO SMOKING OR OPEN FLAME IS ALLOWED WITHIN 100 FEET OF AN OFFSHORE STRUCTURE WITHOUT ISSUANCE OF A HOT WORK PERMIT. Follow the boat captain s instructions. Provide the captain with all information requested at the time of boarding. This includes, but is not limited to your name, company affiliation, destination, and materials. Disembarking to or from a boat and offshore structures in open water is potentially hazardous. A Type I, Type III, or Type V personal flotation device (PFD) must be worn, snugly fitted, and securely fastened during personnel transfer by personnel basket or by swing rope. - Transfer by personnel basket: Position yourself on the deck of the boat out from under basket as directed by the captain. The basket will be lowered onto the deck of the boat from the structure or rig platform. When it is on the deck, place your luggage in the bottom center of the personnel basket. Place one foot on the outside rim of the basket and grasp the basket ropes securely. Keep your knees bent or flexed, and be prepared for the unexpected moves, particularly in rough seas. As the basket is lifted off the boat deck, step onto the outside rim of the basket with the other foot. Stand straight; do not lean in or out. - Transfer by the swing rope: CAUTION: DO NOT CARRY LUGGAGE WHILE TRANSFERRING BY SWING ROPE. Wait for the boat to maneuver to a safe position for transfer as determined by the boat captain. Have both hands and arms free. Catch the knotted rope when the boat is at the top of a swell and swing to the structure by pushing off from the boat with your feet. Do not allow the swing rope get between your legs. Always keep feet and legs clear of the structure s landing. In the event a person falls into the water, immediately inform the boat captain by shouting, Man Overboard while maintaining visual contact with person in the water. - Assist in the rescue as directed by the captain.

16 Doc. No.: Page: 12 of Survival Craft Survival craft or capsules are provided on many marine vessels, platforms, and all mobile drilling rigs. Appropriate personnel shall be trained in the maintenance and use of survival crafts and capsules, and regular drills shall be conducted. Precautions include: Always don the life jacket before entering the survival craft. Do not operate release mechanism before reaching the water. Do not tow the survival craft unless it is equipped with an approved towing package. Once inside the survival craft, personnel should stay seated with their seat belts fastened. The PIC of the boat is the person driving the boat. All passengers are required to follow that person s instructions Personal Protective Equipment This section provides information regarding policies and guidelines for personal protective equipment (PPE) that must be followed at all times. PPE is crucial to safety on the jobsite and establishes a barrier between the worker and hazards. PPE does not eliminate hazards. PPE is used only if hazards cannot be addressed with engineering and administrative controls. Workers need to be aware of conditions requiring PPE in their work area. PPE should be selected based on the potential hazards and risk involved, and worn according to the manufacturer s instructions. Make sure the PPE is approved for the hazard involved. Workers should follow the more stringent of contractor s and operator s PPE requirements. Operators shall provide contractors with Safety Data Sheets or other information about specific PPE needs for special situations. Talos requires hard hats, safety glasses (with side shields), FRCs and steel toed shoes for all jobs. This policy shall be maintained by everyone at Talos Energy while working or visiting an offshore facility PPE Training PPE should be worn whenever personnel are on the job site and actively working. Employees shall be trained on: When and where PPE is necessary How to properly don, duff, wear and make adjustments Limitations of the PPE Proper care and maintenance, useful life and disposal of the PPE

17 Doc. No.: Page: 13 of 108 Each affected employee shall demonstrate an understanding of the required training and the ability to use PPE properly before being allowed to perform work requiring the use of PPE. If the supervisor has reason to believe that any affected employee who has been trained does not have the understanding and skill required, the employee must be retrained Work Attire Appropriate clothing should be worn at all times. Loose or poorly fitted clothing should not be worn. Personnel should not work in clothing that is saturated with any flammable, hazardous, or irritating substance(s). Such clothing should be immediately removed and replaced with suitable clothing after the affected skin area has been thoroughly washed and, if necessary, treated. The wearing of jewelry is not permitted offshore. The only exception are for medical bracelets which should be of the open copper type or close fitting and covered by clothing and PPE, such as coveralls and wrist watches with breakaway bands. Other jewelry such as body piercings is only permitted where the jewelry is continuously and completely covered by clothing such as coveralls or catering jackets. Wrist watches must be removed when working with moving equipment and machinery. Personnel with hair of such length as to be a hazard in work areas should keep it contained in a suitable manner while performing their duties. Hair and beard styles shall not interfere with the effective functioning of head, eye, face, or respiratory protective equipment, if such equipment is required at the work site Head Protection/Hard Hats Hard hats provide protection against impact of falling objects and are designed to provide maximum impact protection for the head. They need to be inspected daily or prior to each use. ANSI Type I is the most common. Type I and II are generally considered acceptable. Talos prefers Class E, Type I. Hard hats are often good for only three (3) to five (5) years after put into service; refer to manufacture date. They can become brittle due to wear and tear and sun exposure. Replace a hard hat as soon as it cracks, breaks, fades, or is damaged. When in doubt, replace it. Workers need to be aware of the following: Metal hard hats and bump caps are prohibited. Hard hats are not to be worn tipped forward, backward or to one side. The headband or suspension system is to be adjusted to the proper size to provide sufficient clearance between the shell and the headband. The suspension system is not to be modified or altered in any way.

18 Doc. No.: Page: 14 of 108 Objects are not allowed to be carried or stored between the headband and head. This will defeat the effectiveness of the suspension system. Ball caps are not to be worn under hard hats as it allows the hard hat to fit too loosely on the head and the suspension protection is lost. When used, install winter liners per the manufacturer s instructions. Use soap and water to clean hard hats (not solvents or similar substances). Holes for ventilation should not be punched in a hard hat. The holes weaken the stability of the plastic causing a stress which is easily defeated during an impact. Hard hats are not to be painted or modified in any way. Hairstyles that make it impossible for a worker to properly wear a hard hat are not permitted Foot Protection Sturdy work shoes with steel toes, non-slip soles, and oil and chemical resistant soles are generally worn in all drilling and production operations and gas plant locations. Shoes and Boots need to meet ASTM F and ASTM Do not wear shoes with taps, protruding nails, or abnormally high heels. Inspect shoes or boots regularly and replace them when they are damaged or no longer provide adequate protection Hand Protection Workers need to wear gloves when they are exposed to hand hazards such as: Absorption of harmful substances Severe cuts or lacerations Severe abrasions Punctures Chemical burns Thermal burns Harmful temperature extremes Make sure you are using the right glove for the job. Do not use gloves that fasten around the wrist when working around machinery or rotating equipment. With this type of glove, the hand can be pulled into the machinery instead of the glove being torn from the hand if the hand is caught in the machinery. Appropriate gloves need to be worn when using solvents, chemicals, or cleaners. Refer to Safety Data Sheet (SDS) assessments for specific requirements. The worker must identify the exposure and determine the recommended glove type for exposure. Make sure that the gloves are inspected before each use.

19 Doc. No.: Page: 15 of Hearing Protection Many forms of hearing protection are available and should be worn in posted areas. Wear protection when there is a chance of temporary elevation of noise levels even if the area is not posted. Hearing protection should always be worn where noise levels exceed 85 dba. Some operations that require hearing protection are: Blowing down lines Working around compressors Certain drilling and work over activities Signs are posted in areas where noise levels are above 85 dba or greater. Do not rely on just the sign to determine if it is a high noise area. When in doubt, wear ear protection Eye and Face Protection Approved safety glasses with side shields or goggles meeting ANSI Z87.1 standards are required. Wear eye protection any time there is a risk of damage to eyes from chemicals or flying objects. Prescription safety glasses must meet the ANSI.Z87.1 standard. Talos will supply safety over-glasses, if needed. Contacts are prohibited in the offshore environment. Workers need to be aware of the following PPE precautions around hazardous chemicals: Eye protection should be worn by all persons, including visitors, where chemicals are stored or handled. Goggles should always be worn when handling chemicals. Face shields and splash-proof goggles are suggested when handling liquid chemicals. Welding requires a welder s helmet with welding lens. Wear a face shield for certain operations such as chipping, grinding, and power washing. If a face shield is worn, safety goggles or glasses must be worn underneath Flame Resistant Clothing (FRC) FRC must be worn at all times while working outside the living quarters. FRC must be worn as intended for protection. It is not necessary to wear FRC when arriving and departing for crew change.

20 Doc. No.: Page: 16 of Working over Water When working over or near water: Employees working over or near water, where the danger of drowning exists, shall be provided with U.S. Coast Guard-approved life jacket or buoyant work vests. Prior to and after each use, the buoyant work vests or life preservers shall be inspected for defects, which would alter their strength or buoyancy. Defective units shall not be used. Ring buoys shall be provided and readily available for emergency rescue operations Respiratory Protection This section establishes a set of guidelines for the selection of respiratory protection equipment, situations for its use, and training in the use of the respirator required. A Respiratory Protection Program is in place for workers who perform work in hazardous atmospheres. The need for respiratory protection varies by jobsite. The program needs to thoroughly assess and document respiratory hazards that workers are exposed to. This includes both normal conditions and emergencies. Hazardous respiratory exposures may include the following: H 2 S Confined Space or Vessels Entry Painting/Blasting Asbestos NORM Exposures exceeding OSHA Permissible Exposure Limits (PEL) Workers need to understand respiratory requirements before starting a job. Use of respirators requires specific training, medical exams, and fit testing Responsibilities The Person in Charge (PIC), Lead Operator, or Consultant is responsible for: Identify the need for respiratory protection through evaluating the job scope (JSA) and material being handled (i.e. H 2 S, NORM, Asbestos). Verify that contractors using respiratory protective equipment have the appropriate equipment, skills, and knowledge.

21 Doc. No.: Page: 17 of 108 Consider and evaluate the use of engineering controls where feasible, which may include: - Change of the work process - Substitution of less hazardous substances for harmful materials - Isolation or enclosure of the work process or affected employees - Local exhaust or general dilution ventilation Contractors Contractor companies whose personnel perform work requiring respiratory protection are required to have a documented respiratory protection program in place. The contractor company must ensure that their personnel are properly trained, medically cleared, fit-tested, and that the program is properly implemented Exposure Control Atmospheres are considered hazardous if they contain toxic or disease-producing contaminants (gas vapors or particulates) which exceed Permissible Exposure Limits (PEL) given by the Safety Data Sheets. Respirators shall be worn while working in areas in which atmospheres exceed the permissible exposure/time criteria, or when concentrations are unknown but suspected to approach the PEL. In addition, respirators shall be worn during emergency and rescue operations whenever the gas or particulate concentrations exceed the Acceptable Ceiling Concentration levels. Engineering controls and safe work practices (such as the elimination of the source of contamination, ventilation equipment, working upwind, limiting exposure time, etc.) must be the primary control for exposure to air contaminants. Effective engineering controls include enclosure or confinement of the operation, general and local ventilation, and substitution of less toxic materials. Respirators are used if engineering or work practice controls are not effective for controlling airborne exposures below acceptable concentrations. When not feasible, or while instituting controls, appropriate respiratory protection shall be used as described in this program. Respirators are selected based on the hazards to which the worker is exposed, such as: Oxygen deficiency H 2S or CO 2 exposures Gas and vapor contaminants are present. Particulate contaminants such as dust, fume, chemical mist, fog, or smoke are present.

22 Oxygen Deficient Atmosphere Safe Work Practices Manual Doc. No.: Page: 18 of 108 A normal working atmosphere has an oxygen concentration between 19.5 and 23.5 percent and is free of harmful amounts of flammable gases, dusts, and toxic materials (less than 10 percent of the LEL and below the PEL or TLV). Anything other than this will be considered an abnormal, unsafe atmosphere and will require additional control measures to continue permitted entry. Personnel shall not be allowed to enter areas where the oxygen content is found to contain less than 19.5 percent oxygen Respirator Selection Respirators must be approved by a recognized testing agency or regulatory authority, such as NIOSH (National Institute of Occupational Safety and Health)/MSHA. Filters and cartridges used in the workplace shall be labeled and color-coded with the NIOSH approved label. Ensure the label is not removed and that it remains legible. If for any reason the label becomes illegible, the filters and/or cartridges shall be discarded and not used Exposure Considerations Respirators shall be selected based on the hazards to which the worker is exposed. The following factors shall be considered in the selection of respirators: Location - The location of the hazardous area with respect to a safe area having respirable air shall be considered, as this will allow planning for escape of workers if an emergency occurs. Time - The time period that a respirator must be worn and environmental conditions shall be taken into account (e.g., tank capacity required, extreme weather conditions). Physical Characteristics - Physical Characteristics, functional capability and performance limitations of the various types of respirators shall be considered. Regulatory Guidelines - Respirators shall be selected from among those tested and approval by the National Institute of Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH). The selection shall be made in accordance which ANSI Z Respirators for Atmospheres with Gas and Vapor Contaminants Respirators for use in gas and vapor atmospheres that contain adequate oxygen and are not immediately dangerous to life or health may be either of the pressure demand or positive pressure air breathing type mentioned above, or the chemical cartridge or canister type, full or half mask. The cartridge type shall possess the appropriate absorbent chemical designed for the specific exposure conditions.

23 Doc. No.: Page: 19 of 108 These chemical absorbent masks are mainly intended for very low concentrations of toxic gases. Cartridge and canister equipment produce negative pressure in the respiratory inlet during inhalation. If the specific exposure concentrations are suspected to equal or exceed the amounts considered immediately dangerous to life or health, only positive pressure air breathing equipment shall be used Respirators for Atmospheres with Particulate Contaminants (Dusts, Fogs, Smoke, Spray) Particulate-filters with quarter mask, half mask, or full-face piece shall be used provided the unit meets the respiratory protection factor criteria of NIOSH for the specific conditions encountered. For example, OSHA regulations for asbestos require use of a continuous flow or pressure demand, supplied-air respirator whenever the concentration of asbestos fibers in the work atmosphere exceeds 100 times the permitted eight-hour exposure limit. Mechanical filter respirators (dust mask) provide protection against particulate matter such as nonvolatile dusts, mists, or metal fumes. Selection of the appropriate respirator is based on the type, toxicity, and particle size of the particulate matter Jobs that May Require the Use of Respirators: Paint spraying and blasting operations Welding and cutting operations Confined space entry Grinding, buffing, chipping and sanding Handling hazardous chemicals, products or materials where exposure exceeds PEL as per SDS Emergency Situations Many chemicals, under normal operating conditions, will not cause overexposure to personnel, but in emergencies such as during a fire or spill, exposure can exceed permissible exposure limits. Personnel performing emergency response may be required to wear respiratory protection. Follow the emergency response/evacuation plan and contact the Talos EH&S department Fit Testing Employees or contractors using a tight-fitting face piece respirator must pass a fit test. The employee or contractor must be fit tested with the same make, model, style, and size of respirator that will be used by the employee.

24 Doc. No.: Page: 20 of Respirator Maintenance - Cleaning, Storage and Inspection Employees and contractors shall keep respirators clean, sanitary, and in good working order. Respirators issued to more than one employee shall be cleaned and disinfected following use by the employee who used the respirator. Test the respirator to ensure that all components work properly after the respirator is cleaned and reassembled. Respirators shall be protected from damage, contamination, dust, sunlight, extreme temperatures, excessive moisture, and damaging chemicals, and they shall be packed in a container to prevent deformation of the face piece and exhalation valve. Respirators shall be inspected before each use and during cleaning. Respirators that fail inspection or are otherwise defective shall be removed from service or discarded. Components of different respirators should not be combined to make a new one Breathing Air Systems Supplied Air Cylinders When supplied air respirator requirements are met by supplying air from compressed air cylinders, the cylinders shall be tested and maintained in accordance with regulatory requirements. The air shall have a certificate of analysis from the supplier that the breathing air meets the requirements for Grade D breathing air Supplied Air Compressors Breathing air compressors shall be situated to: Prevent entry of contaminated air into the air-supply system. Minimize moisture content so that the dew point at 1 atmosphere pressure is 10 degrees Fahrenheit below the ambient temperature. Have suitable in-line air-purifying sorbent beds and filters to further ensure breathing air quality. Sorbent beds and filters shall be maintained and replaced or refurbished periodically following the manufacturer s instructions. Maintain at the compressor a tag containing the most recent change date and the signature of the supervisor or foreman who performed the change. For non-oil lubricated compressors, ensure the carbon monoxide level in the breathing air does not exceed 10 ppm. For oil lubricated compressors, ensure a high-temperature or carbon monoxide alarm (or both) monitor carbon monoxide levels. If only high-temperature alarms are used, the air supply shall be monitored at intervals sufficient to prevent carbon monoxide in the breathing air from exceeding 10 ppm.

No asphyxiating substance shall be introduced into breathing air lines. Fall Protection This section establishes protective controls for personnel working at elevated heights to prevent or minimize injury or death resulting from falls. This procedure establishes minimum requirements for working at unguarded elevated work locations that are four feet or greater above floor/grade level or that present a potential for fall and/or injury to personnel. This procedure applies to all Talos Energy employees and contract personnel. It covers activities such as, but not limited to work in or on: Pipe racks Unguarded scaffolding Suspended scaffolds Tank tops Derricks Process structures without guarded work platforms Ladders Responsibilities The Person in Charge (PIC), Lead Operator or Consultant is responsible for the following: Understanding and complying with this procedure Evaluating the potential elevated work hazards at Talos Energy facilities/sites, qualifying the level of risk of each job, and establishing the required safeguards Ensuring that personnel assigned to work at heights requiring fall protection are properly trained according to the requirements of this policy Re-evaluating the potential elevated work hazards when changes in work areas may affect the safeguards required Monitoring work areas for compliance with this procedure and required safeguards Ensuring any additional precautions are included as necessary in permits Evaluating the need for a rescue plan Ensuring inspections are performed by competent personnel Removing from service any equipment subjected to the forces of a fall

26 Employee or Contract Personnel are responsible for the following: Doc. No.: Page: 22 of 108 Understanding and following the requirements of this Fall Protection Policy Bringing any questions or concerns about the type of personal fall protection equipment or system installation on any job to the attention of supervision Inspecting the personal fall protection system anchor points, connecting means, lanyards, harnesses, etc. prior to use. This inspection should be thorough and any problems should be immediately brought to the attention of supervision. Reporting any fall to supervisors immediately Removing from service any equipment subjected to the forces of a fall Requirements This policy requires continuous or 100 percent tie off fall protection, when the possibility of a fall of 4 (four) feet or greater exists. This means that the employee must be tied off 100 percent of the time while repositioning or moving into a work area at heights of four feet, or greater. This may occur when work activities include traversing, climbing, descending, etc Equipment A full body harness is required to properly distribute fall arrest forces to minimize potential injury to the body in the event of a fall. The maximum arresting force on an employee shall be limited to 1,800 lbs. The harness must be made of polyester material, and be ANSI Z359.1 approved. Harnesses shall be capable of supporting 5,000 lbs. Lanyards with a maximum of 6 feet in length are required (smaller lanyards are acceptable). Lanyards must be ANSI Z359.1 approved. Lanyards must have a shock absorbing device integral to them. Shock absorbers shall allow for a maximum deceleration distance of 3.5 feet, and limit fall arrest forces to 900 lbs. All snap hooks integral to lanyards shall be of the self-locking/self-closing design. Lanyards shall be capable of supporting 5,000 lbs Anchor Point An anchor point is a secure point of attachment for lanyards, lifelines, or other components of a personal fall protection system. Anchor points shall be capable of supporting 5,000 lbs. per employee attached, or shall be designed with a safety factor of at least two by a qualified person. An anchor point should be as directly overhead as possible, or attachment to the anchor point should be chosen as to not allow a free fall of greater than 6 feet. In cases where the anchor point is lower than the attachment point of the harness, a shorter lanyard or other fall arrest device (i.e., retractable lifeline) should be used.

27 Lanyards and Anchor Points Safe Work Practices Manual Doc. No.: Page: 23 of 108 When not in use, lanyards shall be attached back to the harness in such a way as to not present a tripping hazard. The ends of lanyards shall not be dragged on the ground. Lanyards shall be attached to the best possible anchor point (one that is capable of supporting at least 5000 pounds per person attached). Anchor points shall be at least as high as the attachment point of the harness. Lanyards shall be protected from cuts or abrasions. When a direct snap hook to anchorage connection cannot be achieved, an anchorage connector shall be used. Snap hooks should always be fixed to an anchorage so as to not allow a side load on the hook. Knots shall not be tied in lanyards. The snap hooks of a Y lanyard shall not be connected to each other Additional Fall Protection Horizontal Lifeline Horizontal lifelines shall be designed, installed, and used under the supervision of a qualified person as part of a complete fall arrest system, which maintains a safety factor of two. If the criteria for horizontal lifeline system cannot be met, a pre-engineered and tested horizontal lifeline system shall be used in lieu of a makeshift horizontal lifeline Vertical Lifeline When vertical lifelines are used, each employee shall be attached to a separate lifeline. Components of the vertical lifeline system shall be capable of supporting 5,000 lbs. The attachment point of the fall arrestor shall be at the dorsal D-ring of the harness. When permanently installed ladder climbing systems are used, the fall arrestor shall be attached at the chest D-ring of the harness Self-Retracting Lanyard Self-retracting lanyards (SRLs) shall be installed using ANSI Z359.1 approved connectors (e.g., carabineers or anchor pads/straps), to an anchor point capable of supporting 5,000 lbs. The attachment point of the SRL shall be at the dorsal D-ring of the harness. Users of SRLs shall not connect the snap hook of their lanyard to the snap hook of a SRL. SRLs should be used when the potential free fall distance is greater than 6 feet, or when the height of the walking/working surface is less than 12 feet from ground level. (A shorter lanyard may also be used in the above situation.) Inspection, Maintenance and Storage Personal fall arrest systems shall be inspected prior to each use for wear, damage, or other deterioration and defective components shall be removed from service.

28 Doc. No.: Page: 24 of 108 Fall protection equipment should be cleaned with cool soapy water and rinsed with clear cool water. Equipment should be hung by the D-ring to dry. Equipment shall not be force-dried. When not in use, equipment should be hung in a clean, dry area by the D-ring. Equipment should never be stored in a gang or toolbox Hazard Analysis When a job task will create the possibility or potential for a fall, the Person in Charge (PIC), Lead Operator or Consultant should consider methods to address fall hazards in the following order: Fall Elimination - Eliminate the need to perform elevated work. Fall Prevention - Fall prevention may be accomplished by the use of manlifts, scaffolds, or temporary access ways with standard hand-rails, midrails, and toe boards. Fall protection - Use of proper fall arrest systems such as full body harnesses, Y lanyards, lifelines (both vertical and horizontal), retractable lifelines, etc. This equipment shall be made available to employees Fall Rescue Plans A thoughtful approach to retrieving a fallen worker as soon as possible without endangering the lives of those who must conduct the rescue operation shall be established before work from heights begins. Rescue plans need not be complicated. In some situations, a portable ladder may be adequate. Ensure a plan is discussed; proper equipment and personnel are available and described during pre-job planning JSA. Suspended workers should be rescued as soon as possible. The following should be considered when planning a rescue: - Who will be executing the rescue operation? - Where will the rescue take place? - What kind of equipment would be needed? - What are the rescue options for this area? Rescue plans should always be based on the "worst case" scenario, such as an incapacitated or unconscious fall victim. If a safe rescue can t be achieved under these circumstances, then work from heights should not be performed.

29 Doc. No.: Page: 25 of Climbing Tools and other materials shall not be carried by hand while climbing a ladder. Special precautions shall be taken when wet or other slippery conditions exist. Vertical beams shall not be climbed. When using stairs, one hand shall be free to use the handrails. Climbing on equipment such as pumps, exchangers, valve hand wheels, transformers, electric motors, handrails, structures, or any other facilities not designed for climbing should be avoided. Climbing on conduit, cable trays, or other equipment not capable of supporting the weight of a person is prohibited. Climbing on a ladder while another person is above or on the same section of the ladder is prohibited. Always maintain three points of contact when working from a ladder. When working from a ladder, the ladder shall be secure at both ends and fall protection should be utilized. Adequate support should be available when walking in pipe bands to provide a safe walking/working surface without causing damage to the piping, insulation, or heat tracing. Personal fall protection must be used and anchored to a designated anchor point when using, traveling on, or working from mobile work platforms such as: - Spiders - Manlifts - Scissor-lifts - Crane baskets Same Level Falls Good housekeeping is the key to the prevention of same level falls. Usable and waste material shall be stored away from walking or working surfaces and shall not congest a work area. Walking surfaces shall be kept free of slipping hazards. Floor holes and openings shall be covered so as not to create tripping hazards. - Hole covers must be capable of supporting at least twice the maximum load that may be imposed on them. - Covers must be secured and marked HOLE or COVER.

30 Different Level Falls and/or Deck Openings Protection of Open-Sided Floors and Platforms Doc. No.: Page: 26 of 108 Every open-sided floor or platform four feet or more above an adjacent floor or ground level shall be guarded by a standard railing on all open sides except where there is entrance to a ramp, stairway, or fixed ladder. The railing shall include a toe board beneath the open sides wherever falling materials could create a hazard for persons passing below or cause damage to moving machinery or equipment. Every flight of stairs having four or more risers shall be equipped with standard stair railings Protection for Wall Openings and Holes Every wall opening from which there is a drop of more than four feet shall be guarded by rail, roller, picket fence, half door, or equivalent barrier. Where there is exposure below to falling materials, a removable toe board or the equivalent shall also be provided. Every temporary wall opening shall have adequate guards. Every chute wall opening from which there is a drop of more than four feet shall be guarded by one or more of the barriers specified above or as required by the conditions. When the opening is not in use for handling materials, the guard shall be kept in position regardless of a door on the opening. In addition, a grab handle shall be provided on each side of the opening with its center approximately four feet above floor level and of standard strength and mounting. An extension platform onto which materials can be hoisted for handling shall have side rails or equivalent guards of standard specifications. Every window wall opening at a stairway landing, floor, platform, or balcony, from which there is a drop of more than four feet, and where the bottom of the opening is less than three feet above the platform or landing, shall be guarded by standard slats, standard grill work or standard railing Guarding of Deck Openings Every floor hole into which persons can accidentally walk shall be guarded by either: Standard railing with standard toeboard on all exposed sides, or Floor hole cover of standard strength and construction. While the cover is not in place, the floor hole shall be constantly attended by someone or shall be protected by a removable standard railing Open Hole Attendant Reference Talos-SEMS Talos Open-Hole Approval Form

31 Doc. No.: Page: 27 of 108 Hole watch design and written schedule is at the discretion of the PIC. Example of a written instruction: A designated attendant will fully monitor during active ongoing work in the hole area. If work scope is less than a 24-hour operation, a proper barricade has been installed and full platform crew has been instructed on location of open hole, a designated attendant is only required during active work activities. Open holes lacking a cover or protective barrier shall be constantly (as determined by the PIC) attended to by an open hole attendant (person with a specific duty to keep other workers from accessing the area, also called a hole watch). Open hole attendants shall not be assigned additional duties and be present for all jobs involving open holes as there will be occasions where the hole will be unguarded by a cover or protective barrier (such as during cover removal or construction of barrier). An open hole attendant may be used in lieu of barricading where a job is of very short duration (such as simply removing a hole cover and dropping a piece of equipment to a lower deck and then immediately replacing the cover). The installation of a barrier would introduce more hazards than the short duration of work with an open hole. The open hole attendant shall wear fall protection at all times OR as designated by the PIC, and be immediately present in the area of the open hole at all times while it is uncovered or un-barricaded. If there is a work stoppage, the hole shall be secured by a properly installed barricade. All effected personnel must be made aware of this temporary situation Summary of Hole Permit Procedures: Who signs the permit? - Talos Operations PIC - Hole watch - Person(s) doing the work NOTE: Under certain circumstances, the same individual may sign more than one blank. Duration of the permit: - Twelve hours, or end of job, whichever occurs first - Change of any permitted personnel - Emergency conditions shall cancel the permit Distribution of the permit: - One copy posted at worksite until the completion of the work - One copy remains on file for two years Hole Covers Hole covers of sufficient integrity with a sure fit are preferred for correcting open holes.

32 Doc. No.: Page: 28 of 108 The covers shall be rated (ppf) to a level at least equal to the surrounding deck area so as to support the expected deck load, materials or equipment that may be imposed on the cover at any one time. The cover should not protrude more than one inch above the walking surface. Any protruding cover must not have raised or sharp edges that could cause a tripping hazard. Covers that protrude less than one inch above the plane of the walking surface and contain beveled edges are acceptable. The cover shall be secured to prevent accidental displacement. The cover should be distinguishable with a different color than surroundings or labeled as Hole or Cover Inappropriate Hole Protection Barriers The following are NOT considered adequate barriers for open hole protection: Cables without adequate anchoring or posting. Proper tensioning should not allow cables to be moved up or down more than six inches Light ropes, plastic flagging tape (surveying tape), or similarly weak materials Wooden railings using less than 2-inch by 4-inch stock Construction fencing used without properly anchored or posted restraining cables Training Requirements Personnel who might be exposed to fall hazards shall be trained on the following: Identifying potential fall hazards Identifying proper anchor points Using the correct procedures for inspecting and utilizing personal fall protection equipment Proper selection and donning of adequate personal fall protection equipment Use of rescue equipment and procedures Competent Persons shall be trained and have skills/knowledge in the following: The correct procedures for erecting, maintaining, disassembling, and inspecting the fall protection and rescue systems to be used Identifying potential fall hazards Identifying proper anchor points Development of rescue planning including procedures and required equipment The standards contained in 29 CFR 1926, Subpart M.

33 Doc. No.: Page: 29 of Medical and First Aid Bloodborne Pathogens Bloodborne Pathogens are microscopic infectious organisms carried by body fluids and can cause disease in humans. These pathogens include hepatitis B virus (HBV), hepatitis C virus (HCV) and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). For a potential bloodborne infection to occur, contact must take place between broken skin or mucous membranes and infected blood or other body fluids. Contact with potential bloodborne pathogens can occur during emergency care which includes cleanup and disposal of any bodily, or blood fluids. Blood and body fluids are considered hazardous waste and require special clean-up materials, transportation, and disposal. Administration of emergency care by most employees is not a job duty and would be performed at the discretion of the employee. If emergency care is given precautions should be taken that include utilizing appropriate PPE such as latex gloves and eye protection. Talos Energy seeks to limit employee exposure to blood and other infectious materials. This program identifies those employees who may be occupationally exposed, and addresses both the means by which the exposure can be reduced or eliminated, and the procedure for evaluating an exposure incident. If an employee is involved in a potential exposure incident, Talos will provide evaluation, post treatment, and follow-up. Any potential exposure incident experienced on the job should be reported immediately to your supervisor or safety representative. Methods that reduce or eliminate the risk of exposure include Universal Precautions, Engineering Controls, Work Practice Controls, and the use of PPE Universal Precautions All blood and certain body fluids are to be treated as if they are infectious for HIV, HBV, or any other blood borne pathogen. This method of infection control, known as Universal Precautions, will be utilized in any situation that involves potential exposure to blood or other potentially infectious materials Engineering Controls Engineering Controls for isolating or removing a hazard from the workplace are the most effective methods of hazard reduction. Engineering controls include the use of sharps disposal containers, disposable airway equipment or resuscitation bags, and pocket mouth-to-mouth resuscitation devices for CPR. Engineering controls should be employed first, and if the hazard remains, PPE shall be used.

34 Doc. No.: Page: 30 of Work Practices Work Practices that reduce the exposure during a task or procedure will be used to minimize exposure. Hands and other skin surfaces, which come in contact with blood or other potentially infectious materials, must be washed immediately with soap and water. In the event that running water is unavailable, antiseptic towelettes may be used. Eating, drinking, smoking, applying cosmetics, and handling contact lenses is prohibited in areas where exposure is likely to occur. Food and drink will not be stored in or on refrigerators, cabinets, shelves, or counter tops where blood or other potentially infectious materials are present. All procedures involving exposure to blood or potentially infectious materials shall be performed in a way which minimizes splashing, spraying, and spattering. All contaminated sharps will be placed in closeable, puncture-resistant, leak-proof and color coded containers. All other regulated waste and full sharps containers will be placed in a regulated waste container for disposal in accordance with local, state, and federal regulations. Records will be kept as required. All contaminated reusable equipment, work surfaces, and environmental areas will be cleaned as soon as possible with an appropriate disinfectant such as a 1 to 10 concentration of bleach to water. Appropriate PPE will be worn during decontamination procedures. Broken glassware will be picked up using mechanical means such as tongs, or brush and dustpan First Aid/CPR/AED Emergency First Aid/CPR/AED training will be provided to employees who work in areas where emergency medical services are not immediately available Hazard Communication - Globally Harmonized System (GHS) Overview Some of the materials that you use in your operations may be dangerous if misused, mishandled, or combined with the wrong other ingredients. It is important that those who may be exposed to any such material be forewarned and trained both how to avoid a situation and what to do if one should arise Hazard Communication Policies Policies set forth in this Hazard Communication Plan are to be adhered to by all employees, and contractors working on our property. Employees found to be knowingly violating the policies set forth will be subject to disciplinary actions, up to and including immediate termination.

35 Doc. No.: Page: 31 of General The following Hazard Communication Program (HAZCOM) has been established to insure compliance with all directives pertinent to Code of Federal Regulations (29 CFR ). It is the intent of this program to provide all Talos employees with a reference guide to working with hazardous chemicals Location of Hazard Communication Plan The written Hazard Communication Plan is available for review by all Talos employees in Share Point and the SDS manual Hazard Communications Program The HSE Manager is the overall Hazard Communications Program Coordinator (HCPC). Foreman, Supervisors, and PICs are responsible for their respective areas Employee Training Training will be conducted by Talos Energy or third-party training. After completion of initial training, Talos employees will receive the same training on an annual basis and/or when new chemical or chemical products are introduced into the work area. When appropriate, external agencies may be contracted to conduct training as required Training Format Training will include the following: The location and availability of the written Hazard Communication Program and SDS Training on the physical and health hazards of the chemicals in the work area How to reduce or prevent exposure to these hazardous chemicals through proper work practices, engineering procedures, emergency procedures, and personal protective equipment to be used Actions taken and protocols implemented to reduce or prevent the workers exposure to hazardous chemicals Procedures to follow if they are exposed to hazardous chemicals Methods and observations used to verify the presence or release of a hazardous chemical Explanation of the details of the program, labeling, the SDS, and how employees can obtain and use appropriate information.

36 Doc. No.: Page: 32 of Specific Training Any non-routine task will require specific training concerning the hazards associated with the task. This training will include information on: Specific chemical hazard Protective/safety measures that the employee can take Measures that Talos has taken to reduce hazards, including administrative controls, engineering controls, and personal protective equipment (PPE) required Record Keeping The trainer or supervisor will require all employees attending the Hazard Communication Course to sign a sheet verifying their attendance Labeling on Containers It will be the responsibility of the supervisor of the area to insure proper labeling of containers. This is to be consistent with the information contained in the appropriate SDS. Hazardous chemical storage containers must be properly labeled and placarded. They should be labeled with items such as health hazards, target organs, flammability and etc. Container Labels will be in accordance with current and accepted OSHA and GHS Standards. NOTE: Common nomenclature must be stated on the label. Chemical symbols may be added, but common nomenclature is mandated by OSHA Missing Labels Missing, defaced, or illegible labels will be replaced immediately with clean, properly marked ones Safety Data Sheets (SDS) The SDS should be readily available for all chemicals used at a work site. Workers need to understand their contents. The SDS are useful for: Seeking information and advice on possible hazards Planning appropriate protective procedures Planning the positioning of equipment and personnel before beginning a new operation

37 Maintaining Safety Data Sheet Safe Work Practices Manual Doc. No.: Page: 33 of 108 A central file containing each SDS shall be maintained at each manned platform s Control Room. The respective SDS will be available for review by all employees. The SDS is a key tool in hazardous chemical safety. The SDS should be reviewed with employees on a regular basis. All chemicals shall have an SDS readily available to employees. Employees need to understand the contents of each SDS. An SDS will be requested for all incoming hazardous substances. Talos will rely on the suppliers/vendors/contractors to furnish an appropriate SDS SDS Information The designated person will ensure that each SDS contains complete information in each of the following categories: Identification Hazard(s) Identification Composition/information on ingredients First-aid measures Fire-fighting measures Accidental release measures Handling and storage Exposure controls/personal protection Physical and chemical properties Stability and reactivity Toxicological information Ecological information (non-mandatory) Disposal considerations (non-mandatory) Transport Information (non-mandatory) Regulatory information (non-mandatory) Other information including date of preparation or last revision Missing SDS The shore base receivers will contact suppliers for any missing SDS or missing SDS category information. Shore base receivers will document all communications with suppliers.

38 Informing Contractors Safe Work Practices Manual Doc. No.: Page: 34 of 108 It will be the responsibility of the PIC to inform contractors of the hazards in the work area to which they are assigned. This is critical wherever chemicals or compressed gas are in use or are stored. Contractors are to be informed of any restrictions involving use of compressed gasses, flame, or chemicals to be utilized by the contractor as part of the job Updating and Evaluating the HAZCOM Program At least once per year, the Vice President HSE or delegate will review and update the program. The Vice President HSE or delegate will access the hazardous chemicals and materials in the offshore facility with the assistance of Safety and Compliance Foremen and other supervisors. The update will consist of each of the following elements of the HAZCOM program: Hazard assessment Assessment of applicable regulations Written plan(s) Policies Discipline/procedures Training Inspection Audits Designated employee accountability Materials Received All containers received for use in each offshore facility are to be properly and clearly marked in at least English accompanied with the SDS Materials Shipped Any hazardous substance leaving the offshore facility must be accompanied by the SDS. Chemical waste will be shipped via a contracted vendor, in compliance with EPA, OSHA, and DOT regulations. Records will be maintained in the office of the shore base Portable Containers Portable containers into which hazardous chemicals are transferred from labeled containers and which are intended only for the immediate use of the employee who performs the transfer are not required to be labeled. If any hazardous chemical remains when the employee leaves the immediate area, then the container containing the hazardous chemical must be labeled, or the material transferred back (if allowable) into a labeled container. All other portable containers are to be labeled with the content and hazard to the potentially affected body part(s).

39 Multi-Employer Work Sites Safe Work Practices Manual Doc. No.: Page: 35 of 108 It is the responsibility of the designated individual (PIC) to provide contractors and their employees with the information listed below. This information will be given to the contractor's employees prior to their entering the work site. Hazardous chemicals what they may be exposed to on the work site Measures the employee may take to reduce the possible exposure Steps taken to reduce the risks The applicable SDS for all hazardous chemicals are on file in the Control room Procedures to follow if they are exposed Location of the written plan is in the Control room Using PPE Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) is a good line of defense against exposure to chemicals. Chemicals can enter the body through four different routes: Eyes Skin Inhalation (the respiratory system) Ingestion Refer to section 4.2 of this SWP manual for more information and specific PPE requirements when working with hazardous chemicals. The SDS is another good source of information on recommended PPE Personal Hygiene A work practice that is often overlooked is good personal hygiene. Chemicals can enter the body by way of ingestion. Avoid eating, drinking, smoking, chewing gum or applying cosmetics in the work areas where chemicals are present. Workers must wash their hands and other affected areas after handling chemicals and removing PPE. Do not store, handle, or consume food and beverages in areas where chemicals are used or stored. Chemicals may not be stored in food refrigerators or with food utensils. Never smell or taste chemicals. All PPE, tools, clothing, personnel, and any other equipment shall be properly decontaminated.

40 Doc. No.: Page: 36 of Emergencies Eye wash stations and showers are critical in hazardous chemical safety. Workers should be familiar with the eye wash station location and how to use them in case of an emergency Using Chemicals Chemicals are used in equipment that has been specifically designed for them and where there is adequate ventilation. Do not allow toxic substances to be released in rooms with contained or re-circulated atmospheres. Remember that ventilation systems are designed for specific types and amounts of chemicals, so only use equipment for its designed purpose Spills Clean up chemical spills promptly using prescribed PPE and disposal procedures. Do not discharge chemicals into drains unless the chemicals are neutralized or harmless. If unsure, discuss the matter with your supervisor. Never mix chemical waste. Often, waste is evaluated to determine minimization opportunities. Remember the three R s: reduce, reuse, or recycle. Always try to eliminate the use of drums whenever possible Asbestos Asbestos containing materials (ACMs) were commonly used in the past. It is difficult to tell between ACM and non-acm without laboratory equipment ACMs are no longer installed for insulation in E&P facilities. There are older facilities where asbestos may still remain. Some applications of asbestos include: pipe wrap gaskets vessel and building insulation brake pads transit panels floor tiles roofing felts Ask the operators if there are any asbestos containing materials in the work area. Operators should tag such materials with a sign or label stating ASBESTOS or ACM.

41 Doc. No.: Page: 37 of 108 Asbestos can be harmful if it is not handled right. Breathing asbestos dust and fibers is hazardous. Asbestos will not be released at a dangerous level if it is: properly encapsulated properly covered in fragile condition on non-enclosed structures It is important not to drill, cut, mine, remove, tear, step on, brush against, hammer on or in any way disturb suspected ACM. Notify your supervisor if you need to disturb any suspected ACM or you notice any wear and tear of the suspected ACM. Only trained and qualified personnel with proper equipment and strict procedures may work with ACM. Specific regulations may apply to working with or removing ACM Benzene Benzene is an aromatic hydrocarbon carcinogen that occurs naturally in petroleum crude oils and natural gas condensates. High concentrations of benzene are often found in the water vapor coming off of a glycol dehydration unit. The amount present is usually greater in the lighter crude oils and condensates. Benzene also may be found in many processing and cleaning fluids, where it is used as an additive. Workers need to ask the operator if there is any benzene where they will be working. If exposure to benzene cannot be avoided, the proper PPE (e.g. SCBA) needs to be used by the workers. Benzene can cause the short-term effects common to most solvents. These effects include headaches, dizziness, and/or respiratory irritation. These effects usually occur at exposure levels of 25 ppm (parts per million) to 100 ppm. These effects are usually reversed by removing the person to a safe breathing area. Long-term inhalation of benzene can cause leukemia or cancer of the blood-forming organs in the body. Since there is a natural occurrence of all cancers in the human population, the goal in managing the cancer risk associated with benzene exposure is to set exposure levels no higher than what is naturally found in the human population. Exposure levels to benzene are usually regulated by appropriate government agencies. The permitted exposure limit for benzene is 1 ppm averaged over an eight-hour work shift, with a maximum short-term exposure of 5 ppm averaged over a 15-minute period. This short-term exposure limit (STEL) does not occur more than four (4) times daily with at least 60 minutes between each of the four (4) exposures. Exposures above 5 ppm for any time period are not allowed. (See API RP54).

42 Doc. No.: Page: 38 of Managing Benzene Risk The main mechanisms used to manage the health risk from working with benzene are the following: Education and information - make sure that people understand the risks associated with benzene exposure and the protective systems available. Exposure monitoring - determine if the potential for benzene exposure exists for workers and measure these exposures by job classification and/or task. Medical surveillance - if workers are exposed at or above the action level (0.5 ppm) for benzene, include them in the medical surveillance program to identify potential changes in blood chemistries. Have signs posted and storage tanks labeled in areas where benzene has been detected at or above 1,000 ppm What Workers Can Do 4.9. Understand the basic information on benzene. Avoid excessive exposure to materials that contain benzene, i.e. crude oil, condensate, natural gas liquids. Use recommended personnel protective equipment (PPE) where exposure potential to these materials exists. Refer to PPE Assessment Sheet at location. Hydrogen Sulfide This section provides safe guidelines that must be followed when the possibility of hydrogen sulfide (H 2 S) may be present. H 2 S is a highly a toxic, colorless gas. It can travel some distance close to the ground and may accumulate in low areas. H 2 S has an offensive odor like rotten eggs at low concentrations. However, never rely on the sense of smell to identify H 2 S since you may not be able to detect it. H 2 S is hazardous due to its explosive nature and toxicity. H 2 S occurs in a variety of natural and industrial settings. It is naturally occurring in many oil and gas producing formations. It is also produced by bacterial action and decomposition of organic matter. The principal concern from inhalation of H 2 S is acute (short-term) toxicity. H 2 S causes paralysis of the respiratory center in the brain and can result in immediate collapse and death. The explosive range for H 2 S is extremely wide, from 4.3 percent to 46 percent by volume. The auto ignition temperature of H 2 S is 500 F. It is highly soluble in water, liquid hydrocarbons, and at elevated pressures. H 2 S comes out of solution as a gas at ambient conditions. H 2 S burns with a blue flame and produces sulfur dioxide (SO 2 ), another toxic gas. H 2 S is highly corrosive to metals.

43 Doc. No.: Page: 39 of 108 Low levels of exposure may cause the following symptoms or a combination of these symptoms with longer exposure: Concentration in PPM to 0.02 Odor threshold Above 10 Below 100 Above 100 Effect Toxic to personnel, wear respiratory protection equipment Quickly deadens the sense of smell Considered immediately dangerous to life or health (IDLH). Air-supping respiratory equipment approved for this level must be used. 500 to 1000 Rapid loss of consciousness and death. Above 1,000 Immediate unconsciousness and death if not revived promptly H 2 S Contingency Plan Any facility with the potential for H 2 S exposure shall have an approved Contingency Plan with the following provisions: Monitors capable of measuring 10 ppm Audible and visible alarms at 20 ppm Ability to detect SO 2 when flaring H 2 S Drills conducted in zones with H 2 S present Documented H 2 S training for all operators and contract personnel before beginning work at the facility, and annual training with refresher training performed within one year of previous class Visitors that will remain on the facility more than 24 hours must receive the same training required for employees. Visitors that will spend less than 24 hours at the facility are exempt from the training required for employees, but must on arrival complete a briefing that includes the following: - Information on location and use of assigned respirator - Practice donning and adjusting the respirator - Information on safe briefing areas, Alarm System, and the hazards of H 2 S and SO 2 - Instructions on their responsibilities in the event of an H 2 S release Detection Devices Use detection equipment when working in an area where there is a possibility of H 2 S gas, especially in enclosed or below-grade areas. Various devices or instruments can be used to detect H 2 S in the air.

44 Doc. No.: Page: 40 of 108 A personal monitor is a portable electronic unit designed to alert personnel who may encounter H 2 S levels beyond permissible exposure levels. It is usually clipped to a pocket or the lapel, to position the detector near the breathing zone. A fixed monitor is used in areas that H 2 S is present in high concentrations and can affect working personnel or the public. It is usually fixed to a structure near a zone where H 2 S can be generated. Colorimetric detector tubes are generally used for screening purposes. Colorimetric detector tubes can also be used in conjunction with the proper respiratory protection, to test atmospheres for safe entry or work Respiratory Protection It is critical to select the right type of respiratory protection when working in an atmosphere that can potentially contain H 2 S. In all cases, the units do not filter the air, but rather supply air to the wearer. The following are the three basic types of respiratory protection: The escape unit is designed strictly for escape from an H 2 S atmosphere and can only be used for a very short period of time. The supplied air unit is generally used as a work unit. Such units must have a positive pressure feature for the air inside the face piece, and must be equipped with an escape cylinder, as a back-up safety system, in case air supply is interrupted. The self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) can be used as a work unit and is the preferred standby and rescue unit. Personnel working in H 2 S areas are required to be clean-shaven to ensure a proper respirator mask-to-face seal. In atmospheres IDLH (level of 100 ppm or greater), a standby person(s) with suitable self-contained breathing apparatus must be available for the purpose of rescue in case of an emergency. Never attempt to rescue an H 2 S victim without first donning proper respiratory protection in the form of a SCBA or an approved hose line, supplied air unit. All rescue personnel must be properly trained Iron Sulfide (Pyrophoric) Scale During any service operation in which suspected iron sulfide scale is deposited, it is necessary to prevent spontaneous combustion. This can be accomplished by keeping the iron sulfide wet, removing the scale, or by complete coverage with soil. Also, keep in mind that during well acidizing, hydrochloric acid (HCl) reacts with iron sulfide to produce H 2 S.

45 Doc. No.: Page: 41 of Naturally Occurring Radioactive Material This section provides safe operating practices and guidelines to help reduce and prevent exposure to naturally occurring radioactive material (NORM). NORM is radioactive material that has always been a natural component in our environment. This lowlevel radioactive scale can be produced over time in some oil and gas operations. This occurs when NORM dissolves into the reservoir water. The production of oil and gas moves NORM to the surface where it can accumulate at low-levels in processing and transport equipment. Some of the typical locations are: Piping Tubing Sludge pits Brine and sand filters Saltwater disposal injection wells and equipment Soils at the well site Pipe cleaning and storage yards Equipment and piping that handles produced liquids and gases. When the presence of NORM scale is detected, contact the local safety or materials representative. Anytime a NORM reading exceeds 50 μr/hr, including background, the local safety representative must be notified. The following table illustrates the typical NORM levels according to the EPA: Wastes Low Radiation level (pci/g) Average Produced water (pci/l) 0.1 N/A Pipe or tank scale(pci/g) < 0.25 < 200 NOTE: The unit measure pci/g means pico Curie per gram; pci/l means pico Curie per liter.

46 Doc. No.: Page: 42 of NORM Precautions Proper protective equipment, including respiratory or breathing air must be worn when entering contaminated vessels or when handling equipment materials with exposed NORM. Avoid direct skin contact with radioactive scale and solids to the extent reasonably possible. Eating, drinking, smoking, and chewing are not allowed in the work area. Personnel must thoroughly wash hands and face immediately following any skin contact, especially prior to eating, drinking, or smoking. The number of personnel in the work area must be kept to a minimum. Surface contamination must be handled in the wet state to avoid inhaling NORM contaminated scale. Contaminated equipment and vessels that are to be opened must be removed from service, vented, and left to stand idle for four hours to allow radon to decay to less-active levels before work commences. - Contact the local environmental representative for storage and disposal guidelines. Contaminated protective equipment, clothing and tools, must be cleaned in accordance with approved decontamination and waste disposal procedures. Contaminated equipment and piping must be handled in accordance with approved waste and surplus equipment disposal and/or storage procedures. Hand Tools Supervisors shall ensure that all employees and contractors are instructed in the safe and proper use of all hand tools applicable to their work General Employees and contractors shall adhere to the following: Non-engineered / approved tools and equipment are strictly prohibited; The proper tool shall be used for the job.

Production Safety Systems Bypassing and Monitoring Procedure Note: This procedure is not intended to replace the LOTO Procedure. However, it may be used in conjunction with LOTO.

52 Doc. No.: Page: 48 of This guidance is provided to ensure that all field personnel comply with BSEE regulations for bypassing safety devices. During maintenance, repair, and testing of equipment on board the platform, it is imperative that any safety system that is placed in by-pass must be placed back in service immediately following such maintenance, testing, or repairs. The following procedures provide a guideline and process to prevent an accidental by-pass of safety equipment after startup, testing, maintenance, or repairs are completed. The responsibility for using Tags rests with the person repairing equipment, isolating equipment, altering valves or switches from normal operating position or discovering an unsafe piece of equipment. The responsibility for verifying that the necessary repairs to tagged-out items are completed rests with the notified Talos Foreman or PIC Bypass Tags A minimum of five tags shall be issued to each qualified person and kept in their possession at all times while on duty. When off duty, tags should be kept in a secure location. At the end of each shift, each individual must conduct a collective review and inventory of issued tags to ensure a surface or subsurface safety device has not been inadvertently left in bypass. Out of Service Tags will be available at each manned location Definitions Term Bypass Extended Downtime Flag In-Service Maintenance Permanently Out-of-Service Definition To block-out or disable a Safety Device so that it will not perform its designed function. Downtime that occurs through shift or crew change A piece of bright red ribbon attached in addition to a tag, only when the tag is not readily visible, such as tags on overhead valves. The device or component is performing its designed function. Adjustments or repairs, typically of short duration, that can be performed without compromising effective monitoring (leaving the area for parts, supplies, or tools). For clarification, discuss with your supervisor. A component is permanently Out-of-Service (OOS) when it is not being used as part of the production process and it is properly isolated from all other production equipment or energy sources on the facility. Safety Devices for an out of service component must be labeled "Out-of- Service". It is not necessary to monitor the bypassed Safety Device function. However, the PSV on any Out-of-Service component must be left In Service, maintained and tested.

53 Doc. No.: Page: 49 of 108 Term Properly Isolated Qualified Person Temporarily Out-of-Service Tagging Tagging Procedure Definition When wells are disconnected from producing facilities and blind flanged, equipped with a tubing plug, or the master valves have been locked closed, compliance is not required with the provisions of API RP 14C concerning the following: Automatic fail-close SSVs on wellhead assemblies, and The PSH and PSL shut-in sensors in flow lines from wells. When pressure or atmospheric vessels are isolated from production facilities (e.g., inlet valve locked closed or inlet blind-flanged) and are to remain isolated for an extended period of time, safety device compliance with API RP 14C is not required. A person that has completed production safety system training in accordance with Talos Energy s Subpart O Training Program. A component is considered temporarily Out-of-Service when it is in standby, not in use (i.e. test separators, intermediate pressure vessels, etc.), but can easily be placed in service. In this situation, Safety Devices that have been bypassed must be flagged with out of service tags. The Safety Device functions do not have to be monitored but must be tested and maintained in accordance with API RP 14C. A DANGER, DO NOT OPERATE weatherproof tag secured with a device that will withstand a minimum of 50 lbs. of pull, and is marked in accordance with the following procedure. The equipment listed in the (Scope), but not limited thereto, shall be tagged in the following manner to ensure the safety of personnel: Numbered lock on the equipment Name, identification, condition, and fault or reason for tagging on the corresponding LOTO form Date, Time, Sign and attach the tag. If the tag is not readily visible, a flag shall be attached. Notify your immediate supervisor if repairs are necessary Talos Energy Bypassing and Flagging OOS Equipment This procedure will be used to properly bypass, flag, and monitor production safety systems and/or devices. 1. Any surface or subsurface safety device, which is bypassed, shall be tagged. The purpose is: To be in compliance with the regulations. To be a visual reminder or alert to all personnel that a safety device is in "bypass." Notify all affected personnel. 2. You may only bypass safety devices required to allow for the safe start-up, testing, maintenance, or repair. Only the minimum number of safety devices that can be adequately monitored should be taken out of service.

54 Doc. No.: Page: 50 of As soon as the task is completed, the safety device or devices must be placed back in service and the tag removed. Note: Bypass tags shall also be placed on isolation valves when they are closed and prevent a safety device from performing its designed function, such as the bridle valves for a LSH, LSL, PSV or the hydraulic control line needle valve for a SCSSV Secondary Flagging If a safety device is bypassed in such a manner that its condition or operating mode is not clearly visible then a second flagging device will be installed on the front of the associated control panel so that it is clearly visible. (i.e. devices/isolation valve inside control panel, slave panels, plugged relay ports, boat landing ESD, etc.) Bypass Monitoring Personnel shall monitor the bypassed or blocked-out functions until the safety devices are placed back in service. An operator is responsible for: Monitoring the function of the bypassed device. Directly monitoring the event while in by-pass and not performing other duties. Assuring monitoring activity occurs on the same platform, same deck level of the component, device or panel of the bypassed or blocked out function. Assuring monitoring is not interrupted for reasons such as breaks, lunch or to greet personnel arriving on the facility including BSEE, company personnel, third party personnel, supervisors, etc. Monitoring for abnormal conditions and taking corrective action (close inlet valve, ESD platform, etc.) to prevent an undesirable event. The ability to manually initiate shut-in action in the event of an abnormal operating condition must be maintained to protect personnel, the environment and equipment. If a platform experiences repetitive nuisance alarms, address the issue with the respective Foreman or Facility Engineer. Operators must minimalize the number of Bypassed Out of Service equipment or devices to allow the start-up, testing, or maintenance task to be performed. The operator shall be in the position to monitor the function of all bypassed devices at all times. If the operator experiences abnormal conditions not related to the task and the situation becomes uncontrollable, the operator shall initiate Stop Work Authority and shut in the platform or shut down equipment and request assistance.

55 Doc. No.: Page: 51 of 108 If equipment or device that is placed in bypass not related to routine testing, maintenance or start up, the bypassed equipment or device must be detailed in the comment section of the morning report Remote Monitoring of Bypassed Safety Devices (SCADA Systems) Testing Remote bypass for testing is not allowed. Testing bypass must be done at the local control panel. Must have qualified person monitoring the component. Maintain communications between component and control panel as necessary Startup or Reset The remote operator can place the device in bypass. This can only be done as part of a reset or startup activity. The remote operator can only monitor a minimum number of devices. If multiple devices are monitored, the remote operator shall be able to view the appropriate data on one SCADA screen. After the bypass device has cleared, it must be returned to service immediately after the process has stabilized. Other site-specific guidelines may be required. These should be documented and maintained at the remote control facility. This operation will comply with NTL 2005-G01 and NTL 2009-G BSEE Inspection Should the BSEE arrive while a safety device(s) is bypassed, immediately notify the BSEE Representative of the following: All device(s) that are tagged and bypassed Why they are bypassed. How they are being monitored Fire Prevention This section explains requirements for fire prevention and protection at Talos Energy facilities to minimize personal injury, illness, or property damage resulting from fires and/or the products of combustion. Talos Energy s philosophy concerning fire prevention, fire control, and firefighting on Talos Energy facilities is as follows:

56 Doc. No.: Page: 52 of 108 Fire Prevention: - We seek to prevent fires on our facilities by following good housekeeping practices, proper hot work procedures and adherence to the requirements of this plan. Fire Control: - Fire control is achieved through the use of proper facility design criteria including surface safety systems and equipment layout. Fire Fighting: - We will fight fires at the level of personal training, available equipment, and that which the particular situation allows. Our primary concern in a fire situation is personnel safety. - We seek to extinguish incipient stage fires using handheld or portable chemical fire extinguishers when this is a viable option. - The primary use of firefighting equipment beyond extinguishing an incipient level fire is to allow personnel sufficient time to safely escape the platform in a fire situation Responding to Fires General guidelines for responding to fires in the Incipient Stages are as follows: 1. Immediately sound alarm/call for help. 2. Alert personnel in the area. 3. Never try to extinguish a fire without first summoning help. If it is safe to do so, try to extinguish the fire using portable fire extinguishers. If it is not practical or possible, activate the ESD and then keep personnel out of the area until help arrives or initiate platform abandonment procedures. If a fire is being fueled by a flammable liquid or gas, shut off the fuel supply before trying to extinguish the fire if safe to do so General Guidelines and Requirements for Fire Prevention: A current Platform Station Bill illustrating the location and type of all fire extinguishers shall be maintained and signed by Person in Charge (PIC) on all manned facilities. Emergency drills and/or training will be conducted at least once per hitch for each crew. The drills shall be based on realistic situations. The results of these drills will be documented on the Talos Energy Weekly Drill Report Form Talos SEMS , and critiqued. Good housekeeping practices shall be implemented at all work sites. Combustible materials, such as oil soaked rags, wastes, and shavings shall be kept in metal containers with lids or in an area far away from any other flammable materials. All containers should be emptied at regular intervals. Paper and other combustible materials shall not be allowed to accumulate.

57 Doc. No.: Page: 53 of 108 Flammable liquids such as gasoline, kerosene, paint, and lacquer thinner, etc., shall not be used for cleaning purposes unless approved methods are employed for their safe use. All solvents and flammable liquids shall be kept in approved and accurately labeled containers per the Hazard Communication program. Small quantities of flammable liquids used on the job must be stored in UL-approved and properly labeled safety containers. Storage of flammable and combustible liquids indoors is allowed using approved storage cabinets. When pouring or pumping gasoline or other highly volatile solvents from one container to another, bonding shall be maintained between the receiving and pouring containers at all times to eliminate the possibility of static sparks when refueling. Best practices dictate that any motorized equipment be turned off before refueling. However there may be special circumstances that require rapid fueling of turbine engine helicopter fueled with Jet A or Jet A1 only. (Outlined in NFPA 407 Chapter 5 section 21) Smoking Restrictions Employees will be allowed to smoke in designated smoking areas only. All platforms must have designated smoking areas properly posted with boundaries marked, and must have receptacles for safely extinguishing and securing cigarette butts. NO SMOKING Signs must be posted at the perimeter of bulk fuel storage areas, re-fueling areas, and locations where flammable liquids are transferred or used Personal Electronic Devices (PED) Personal electronic devices such as cell phones, pagers, radios, cameras, personal digital assistants, laptops or similar equipment that are not intrinsically safe shall not be brought into Classified Locations unless the location is determined to be safe by testing the atmosphere for explosive or flammable concentrations of gas or vapors. If the atmospheric test indicate that the LEL/LFL is below 10%, then a Hot Work Permit is not required provided continuous gas monitoring is conducted by the user.

58 Doc. No.: Page: 54 of Classified Locations Classified Locations are defined as Class 1, Division 1 or Class 1, Division 2 locations as referenced in API RP 500 and NEC, Article 500. A Class 1, Division 1 location is one in which: hazardous concentrations of flammable gases or vapors may exist under normal operating conditions; hazardous concentrations of flammable gases or vapors may exist frequently because of repair or maintenance operations or because of leakage; breakdown or faulty operation of equipment or processes might release hazardous concentrations of flammable gases or vapors and might also cause simultaneous failure of electrical equipment. A Class 1, Division 2 location is one in which: volatile flammable liquids or flammable gases are handled, processed or used, but in which the hazardous liquids, vapors or gases will normally be confined within closed containers or closed systems from which they can escape only in case of accidental rupture or breakdown of such containers or systems, or in case of abnormal operation of equipment; hazardous concentrations of gases or vapors are normally prevented by positive mechanical ventilation, and which might become hazardous through failure or abnormal operations of the venting equipment; adjacent to a Class 1, Division 1 location and to which hazardous concentrations of gases or vapors might occasionally be communicated unless the communication is prevented by adequate positive-pressure ventilation from a source of clean air and safeguards against ventilation failure are provided Portable Fire Extinguishers Only fire extinguishers marked approved by Factory Mutual (FM), Underwriters Lab (UL), the U.S. Coast Guard (USCG), or other nationally recognized testing laboratory (NRTL) shall be used, and they must be readily and safely accessible at all times. Fire extinguishers must be provided and maintained on all Talos Energy owned or leased mobile equipment. Placement and types of portable fire extinguishers shall be in accordance with the BSEE approved station bill. Portable fire extinguishers must be maintained in fully charged and operable condition at all times.

59 Doc. No.: Page: 55 of Fire extinguishers shall be visually inspected monthly and documented by the operator or their representative. All portable fire extinguishers must be hydrostatically tested and maintained according to manufacturer s recommendations. Portable fire extinguishers must have an annual maintenance check. The annual maintenance date should be recorded and the record retained for one year after the last entry or the life of the extinguisher, whichever is less. Only qualified persons shall make these inspections. Monthly, documented inspections shall be made of all portable fire suppression equipment to ensure the equipment is accessible and ready for immediate use. Electrical Safety This section provides safe electrical work practices to reduce and prevent risks of electrical incidents from occurring Qualified Individual (QI) Working safely with electricity requires special knowledge of a Qualified Individual (QI). A QI has the skills and techniques for avoiding the electrical hazards. This person will be familiar with the safetyrelated work practices that pertain to electrical jobs. A QI has the skills and techniques necessary to: Distinguish exposed live parts from other parts of electrical equipment; Determine the nominal voltage of exposed live parts; Determine the clearance distances required and the corresponding voltages to which the qualified person will be exposed Electrical Safety Precautions Several precautions must be taken when working with electricity: Only QIs using approved materials may install or repair any electrical equipment. Consider all electrical conductors energized until proven otherwise. De-energize all before beginning work. Use a LOTO procedure to prevent the electrical circuits from being inadvertently energized. Use suitable PPE such as rubber gloves, mats, and blankets to provide insulation from other elements, which are energized or grounded. Personnel may not wear rings, earrings, watches, or other similar metallic objects while working on energized electrical equipment.

60 Doc. No.: Page: 56 of 108 Rubber gloves need to be inspected before each job. Usually, the air test is used to check the gloves. It is recommended to inspect the glove protector before each use for worn spots, holes or tears. Defective gloves are to be discarded. It is good practice to perform a comprehensive voltageleakage test on the gloves every 6 months or replace them. Electrical interlocks may not be rendered out of order by removal, modification, or destruction. Blown fuses may be replaced only with the proper type and rating. When using ladders to work on or near electrical equipment or conductors, only a nonconducive type may be used. The use of metal ladders is prohibited around electrical components. Never use defective electrical equipment or defective extension cords. Those may be tagged, flagged, locked-out and reported to a supervisor immediately. Do not pull an electrical cord to shut off power to any equipment. Pay particular attention to the condition of extension cords to make sure they are in good condition. Make sure that there are no splices and all connections are protected from weather. It is recommended that connections be of the three-prong type and connected to properly grounded circuits. It is also recommended that electric power tools utilizing extension cords or temporary wiring shall be protected by a ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) Power Lines Power lines require special precautions. All power lines may be considered energized unless proper measures have been taken for deenergizing. When work is being performed near energized overhead power lines, any part of the crane, boom, mast, gin poles or machinery is not be permitted within 10 feet of the power lines rated 50 kv or below. Above 50 kv, 0.4 inches per kv should be added. Nonconductive measuring devices may be used when it is necessary to verify clearances. For lines energized above 50 kv, it is advisable to consult power line experts. Work near power lines may require permitting.

61 Doc. No.: Page: 57 of Pipe or Vessel Purge This section provides safe operating practices and guidelines for performing a pipe or vessel purge. Purging operations are used either to clear in-service lines of hydrocarbons or for commissioning open lines to evacuate the oxygen prior to introducing hydrocarbons. Improper purging of equipment, vessels or lines can cause explosive mixtures to form that can cause an explosion. Choose the most appropriate purge method: Pressurization purging (blow down); this purge method is considered superior to other purge methods. If a system filled with a combustible liquid needs to be emptied and then purged, a purge gas may be applied to the vapor space at a pressure consistent with equipment design limitations. This procedure thus empties the vessel and purges the vapor space in the same process. Examples: pressure vessels, manifolds and entire plant or platform process systems. This procedure shall not be used on atmospheric tanks. 1. Introduce a purge gas to increase system pressure to 15 psig, followed by depressurization to the atmosphere. 2. A minimum of four (4) pressure-de-pressure cycles at 15 psig will be required to purge a vessel at atmospheric pressure. Displacement purging (slug) or inerting; a line that has been opened to air can be purged with an inert gas slug that is followed by natural gas. The slug must be of sufficient volume to prevent the original and chase gas from mixing. Slow flow rates are used for the inert gas slug and the first portion of the chase gas. The flow rate can then be increased for the remaining chase gas if laminar flow is maintained to avoid mixing. Example: pipelines. 1. Introduce an inert purge gas until a buffer or separation zone is established, followed by the introduction of a chase gas of a different type. In-service hydrocarbon gas might be purged by an inert gas slug followed by compressed air. Dilution purging (sweep-through); introducing a purge gas at one opening and letting the system contents escape through another opening at the opposite end of the system. This is the least economical method. Consider siphon purging for thin-walled vessels and tanks or pressurization purging for pressure vessels. Example: produced water tanks. Siphon purging; filling the system with a liquid and introducing a purge gas into the vapor space to replace the liquid as it is drained from the system. The volume of purge gas required will be equal to the volume of the system, and the rate of application can be made to correspond to the rate of draining, plus any effects from temperature change. Examples: pressure vessels and tanks. Water flush; the water flush process is primarily used to clean in-service lines prior to hot work or system entry.

62 Doc. No.: Page: 58 of Fill and flush the system with water to remove residual hydrocarbon from the pipe, vessel or process component walls. 2. Soap may be added as an agent to enhance the removal of the residual hydrocarbon. Several precautions need to be kept in mind for purging operations. It is a good idea to continue purging of piping open to the atmosphere until the residual air and purge gas has an oxygen level below five percent when using an inert purge gas and below one percent when using a hydrocarbon sweep-through purge. Natural gas should be vented away from fired vessels, compressors, electric motors, etc. If possible, vent gas to the low-pressure vent system or flare to prevent a build-up near equipment or personnel. Purging to a flare would require the use of inert gas in order to prevent oxygen/hydrocarbon mixtures developing inside the flare header. Remember that inert gas is an asphyxiant. Prior to entering a vessel or a confined space, it is industry practice to follow a vessel and confined space entry procedure. LEL monitors are limited in their ability to accurately read levels of combustible gas above the upper explosive limit (UEL) or in low oxygen levels. It is recommended to make sure that low or zero readings are not being caused by the absence of oxygen or by high combustible gas levels. Residual liquids, rust, scale or coatings on vessel walls can continuously release vapors into the enclosure. A single testing of the atmosphere may indicate a full purge has been accomplished, while later readings can indicate high levels. It is advisable to perform frequent sampling at several sampling points. When hydrocarbon gas is used to purge air, it is advisable to limit the pressure to 30 psig or 1/10 maximum vessel design pressure, whichever is less. It is also advisable to adhere to this limitation since an internal ignition can generate pressures up to 10 times the pre-ignition pressure. This will require three or more pressure-depressure cycles. When returning equipment to service after purging, it is recommended to do pressure staging gradually in 100-psi increments until 200 psi is reached. Thereafter, staging may be done in 250-psi increments until working pressure is reached. It is important to remember that open piping may be purged with hydrocarbon gas when: A safe vent point is available The system being purged has minimal dead zones. Compressors downstream are thoroughly purged or were not contaminated with air. When using steam as a purging agent, it is good practice to monitor the system pressure frequently in order to avoid creating vacuums when the steam condenses.

63 Doc. No.: Page: 59 of Pipeline Pigging This section provides safe operating practices and guidelines for pipeline pigging. Pigging is a common practice used for commissioning and maintaining pipelines. Pigs of various configurations are used to sweep out undesirable solids, de-water, reduce held-up liquids, or perform electronic measurements of the integrity of pipelines. The risks involved in pigging operations are usually associated with the unusually high rates of flow as the pig approaches the receiving station. To reduce the hazards associated with pigging: Follow written pigging procedures. Check all critical shutdowns, control valves, site glasses, etc. for proper operation prior to launching the pig. Check the pig receiver prior to launching the pig. Insure that the tube is clean of debris, that any safety interlocks on the door are installed and operating correctly, and that the pig signal (if so equipped) is working properly. Ensure that all personnel at the receiving site understand which valve(s) can safely stop flow into the facility. Each person on site should understand how to operate this valve(s) and be familiar with all emergency procedures. After the pig is received, check all receiving equipment for accumulations of debris swept in by the pig.

64 Doc. No.: Page: 60 of CRANE OPERATIONS, MAINTENANCE, RIGGING, AND LIFTING The following Crane, Maintenance, Rigging, and Lifting procedures provide instructions and safe practices involved with crane maintenance, rigging, and lifting General Requirements All crane inspections will be performed by a documented certified crane inspector in accordance with API RP 2D. When there is a call out for an inspection, the contractor will submit certifications for all proposed mobilized personnel for approval to the Talos field Production Foreman. Talos personnel (appropriate associated Supervisor, Foremen, or Lead platform operators) will witness, document, and sign off on all inspections, maintenance, and repairs. All written documentation of inspection, maintenance, or repairs will be verbally reviewed and/or discussed with the appropriate field Production Foreman. All foremen will audit a certified crane inspection school. If deficiencies are identified that impair safe operation, the crane will be put out-of-service (OOS) and/or restricted; the deficiencies must be identified and documented until repairs are made Crane Operator Before any personnel are allowed to operate a crane, supervision shall ensure that the crane operator is qualified in accordance with the API RP 2D Standard. Only the following personnel shall operate cranes: - Qualified crane operators that have met and passed certification requirements - Trainees under the direct supervision of a Qualified Crane Operator - Appropriate maintenance and supervisory personnel, when it is necessary to do so in the performance of their duties - Qualified Inspectors in the performance of their duties Crane operator and rigger qualifications as defined in API RP 2D must be current, documented, and filed on offshore platforms. All operators of powered lifting devices shall be trained, certified, and experienced for the equipment to be operated. Operators shall keep their certification onsite at all times. Before a lift begins, the crane operator is responsible for and shall ensure the following: An assessment of the lift has been completed. The lift method and equipment have been determined by a competent person. The crane and load is properly configured. The outriggers and cribbing are being used at all times while performing lifts.

65 Doc. No.: Page: 61 of Riggers Personnel performing rigging operations of cargo, equipment, personnel baskets, etc. from the deck of a boat or motor vessel shall be trained in accordance with the latest edition of API RP 2D. Only trained or credentialed workers may operate rigging, hoisting, or lifting devices Operating Crew The crane operating crew shall conduct a pre-operational inspection to ensure the following: 6.3. The crane and rigging equipment are configured properly. Controls and safety devices are working properly. The crane, wire ropes, reeling system, and all rigging hardware are in good condition and are adequately rated for the intended load. Crane Operations Load Charts All cranes have load charts and boom angle indicators located at the operator s positions. Review the lift and crane radius when the lifted load exceeds the dynamic crane capacity Crane Safety Procedures Any question or issue involving safe crane operating procedures shall be discussed with a Talos Production Foreman, Talos Safety and Compliance Foreman, or Talos Superintendent before proceeding with lift operation. Cranes shall be operated at the manufacturers specifications. Operation of crane in winds above 30 knots (35 mph) is prohibited unless approved by a Talos foreman. A heavy lift inspection will be performed before any lift that is 75 percent or greater of the defined charted maximum dynamic or static rating (at the associated radius). - For the defined heavy lift, special planning shall be incorporated during JSAs; such as hazardous cargo (liquid nitrogen tanks, acid tanks, pressurized vessels, etc.) - When a defined heavy lift is made over a sensitive area, wells and production vessels in the sensitive area should be shut in. - The lift angle indicator shall be verified for accuracy during all inspections and before any defined heavy lift. If a piece of equipment is within 60 percent of the crane s rated capacity, then a weight certificate from certified scales must be presented before the equipment is stored on the vessel and transported.

66 Safe Work Practices Manual Doc. No.: Page: 62 of 108 If the crane is not equipped with a calibrated weight indicator, one shall be included in the rigging for all well P&A operations, including pulling tubulars. Before any transported lifts are made, a manifest of all lifts that includes weights shall be forwarded to the platform for crane operators review as part of crane pre-use inspections. All sling and lifting equipment must have proper tagging. - Platform rigging equipment shall have documented certification onboard. - Onshore vendor provided equipment shall have sling certification provided with the pre-lift provided manifest. The Standard Hand Signal System shall be used for all crane operations (Refer to Section 6.4). - The operator must never start machine movement until the signalman is in sight and hand signals are understood. - The operator must obey an emergency stop signal given by anyone. - Only one rigger may be designated as signalman at any time. - Use radio communications in addition to hand signals when possible Rigging Safety Before lifting any type of load it is important that the rigging is properly set up by the personnel performing the work. Contractors may be asked to use their own rigging equipment or the operator may provide the equipment to the contractor for use. In either circumstance, the worker must ensure that the rigging set up for the job is safe and conforms to good industry practices. The following safety rules must be followed when rigging up a load for a lift: Workers not involved with the rigging and lifting operation shall keep clear of the lifting operation. Personnel must be in the clear at all times and must not walk, stand, or work under suspended loads. Never ride on a load being hoisted. The information provided in this section is a general guide for rigging operations. Workers can obtain more information from books and references about rigging Sling Safety Selecting the right type and number of slings is important in the rigging process. Slings must have the date that they are placed in service marked on them. Use only slings that appear to be in good repair. Slings, fittings, and fastenings are normally inspected before being used on each load. - Fabric slings must be inspected for any cuts, abrasions, or stitching that has failed. - Wire rope slings shall be replaced if 10 random wires or 5 wires in one strand in one lay are broken.

67 Doc. No.: Page: 63 of Wire rope slings shall be replaced if there is wearing, scraping, kinking, gouging, bird caging, corrosion, or heat damage to the cable. Slings found to be defective must be destroyed. - Cut fiber slings so that they can no longer be used. - Wire rope slings can be cut with a saw or cutting torch. All nylon straps shall be kept in covered storage and out of the weather elements. All slings must be hung up in a dedicated location off-of-deck Lifting Operations Equipment Selection Equipment must be appropriate for the site and the work to be done. Selection criteria include: Load characteristics (type, size and weight) Swing capacity Rated load capacity Height of lift Operating speeds Work Area Isolation Install barricades around cranes to restrict access. When isolating for hoisting or lifting work areas, give special consideration to the following: Do not let any person stand on, under, or in the path of any object being lifted. Do not let any person stand in a tank excavation. Be aware of adjacent obstacles to avoid trapping personnel Plan the Lift Size Up the Load: The load to be lifted must be examined to determine weight, proper lifting points, and if there is any loose equipment that needs to be removed. Select the proper slings for the job: The slings must be in good shape, of the proper length, and strong enough to carry the load. The length of the sling depends on the height of the load, and how high the crane needs to lift the load. Be careful not to exceed the sling rating by increasing the angle between the hook and the sling lift point.

68 Doc. No.: Page: 64 of The load that slings must carry is higher as the angle increases. For example, a vertical sling is rated for 100 percent of the load it carries. Two slings connected by a hook but are spread out 30 degrees by anchor points on the load must carry an additional 3.5 percent. The extreme case is where two slings are spread out 120 degrees. In this case, each leg of sling carries twice the normal load as compared to a vertical sling Lifting Plan Every heavy lift with mechanical equipment must be planned before the lift begins. At a minimum, the following factors must be considered: Swing radius or travel path of the proposed lift Load does not exceed the dynamic and/or static capacities of the lifting equipment Barricade the work area Weather conditions Control lines - If the load needs to be guided or stabilized, control lines may be used. Control lines must be connected before the load is raised - Do not attempt to connect control lines if the load is suspended Use proper ANSI approved hand signals Hazardous surroundings and conditions such as power lines, flammable atmospheres, and nearby excavations that may cause shifting soil. The pick area and set area must be identified and barricaded Pre-lift meeting The workers must conduct a pre-job safety meeting before executing a heavy lift to discuss the work to be performed, hazards, and conditions that may have changed. Complete a JSA. - A JSA Form (Talos-SEMS ) shall be completed during this meeting Check Crane and Surrounding Areas When preparing to rig a lift, first ensure that the crane or hoist being used is capable of making the lift. Determine the dead weight of the load to be lifted. Ensure that the crane or hoist is rated above the weight of the load for all boom angles that may be encountered. Next, determine if there are any objects or obstructions that would either restrict the movement of the crane s boom, or in the path of the required swing area for the load. Ensure that all objects or obstructions are moved or removed so that the load will not be impacted.

69 Doc. No.: Page: 65 of Install Tag Lines Tag lines must be examined for use with the load. The purpose of a tag line is to control the load so that it is positioned correctly when being lifted, swung, or lowered by the crane. Before the crane is moved, personnel using the tag lines must ensure that the lines are free and are not knotted. Personnel must ensure that the lines are not wrapped around the hand or wrist. The operator, signal person, and load handlers must ensure that the load is never over any person Make the Lift A final check of the slings, hooks, tag lines, and the load must be performed just before the lift is made. The crane operator shall lift the load slightly off the ground to ensure that the load is balanced and all equipment is working properly. If any of the following conditions exist, one qualified signal person must work with the crane operator: Personnel assisting with the load are out of the crane operator s vision. The moving load cannot be seen by the crane operator. Other conditions warrant use of a spotter. All personnel, including those holding the tag lines, must never walk or work under the suspended load.

73 Doc. No.: Page: 69 of Crane Inspection and Maintenance Inspect cranes using the monthly checklist. A crane shall be tested and certified prior to its initial use and after final assembly of a portable crane. The test is normally performed by a third-party qualified crane inspector. The test includes but is not limited to: - Load test; a portable crane may never be put into operation without successfully undergoing a load test - Load-hoisting and lowering mechanisms - Auxiliary hoisting and lowering mechanisms - Boom-hoisting and lowering mechanisms - Swing mechanisms and brakes - Helicopter warning light if the crane is used on a platform with a heliport - Crane engine remote activated ESDs, a muffler, and flame arrestor - Proper spooling of cable An annual crane inspection shall be performed within 30 days on any platform that has performed acid flowback well work. (The 30 days start upon completion and the rig down of the flowback job). A load lift or pull test to 100 percent of load chart capability shall be performed and documented for each inspection Wire Cable and/or Rope Maintenance During inspection, all wire ropes and/or cables shall be visually inspected their entire length for proper lubrication and/or existence of excessive corrosion in presence of Talos personnel. Where necessary, proper application of wire lubricant via glove or rag methods will be witnessed by Talos personnel. Lubricant shall be Lubriplate super lubricant, unless an alternative is approved by Talos Production Superintendent. Replace wire cable and/or rope any time visual inspection indicates abnormal wear conditions, otherwise use the following guidelines: - Heavy use category cranes every year - Moderate use category cranes every two years - Infrequent/light usage cranes every three years - Category usage is hours/month over last inspection year as defined by API RP 2D. The cable shall be inspected for embedded sand when there has been sandblasting in the vicinity of the crane.

74 Doc. No.: Page: 70 of Hooks and Slings The following guidelines shall be used for hooks and slings: Only use hooks that are self-closing. Ensure that all slings have a maximum-rated load weight tag attached. Do not use slings if they are in poor condition, cannot be thoroughly inspected visually, or the certification tags are missing. Destroy and discard slings that are found to be in poor condition. Slings must be stored properly when not in use. Do not lay slings in any liquids or chemicals Overhead Risks Always be aware of overhead power lines and keep clear of them. If lifting is required in close proximity to power lines, use non-electrical-conducting tag lines for guiding loads. Always presume that all overhead utility lines are energized. Have the owner verify that the line is not energized and the line has been visibly isolated. Keep the crane and load at least 10 feet away from any overhead utility lines. Distances greater than 10 feet apply for power lines rated higher than 50 kv. Any hazards within these guidelines must be protected by the utility company.

75 Doc. No.: Page: 71 of Minimum Clearance Distances Usually the distance between power lines and the boom, mast, crane, or load is a minimum of 10 feet with 50 kv or below power lines. Above 50 kv it is usually recommended to add 0.4 inches per kv. Voltage (nominal, kv, alternating current) Up to Over 50 to Over 200 to Over 350 to Over 500 to Over 750 to 1, Over 1,000 Minimum clearance distance (feet) (As established by the utility owner and/or operator or registered professional engineer who is a qualified person with respect to electrical power transmission and distribution) Hoisting Personnel for Marine Transfer When hoisting employees solely for transfer to or from a marine worksite, the following requirements must be met. The employee must be in either a personnel platform or a marine-hoisted personnel transfer device. The transfer device must be used only for transferring workers. The number of workers occupying the transfer device must not exceed the maximum number it was designed to hold. Each employee must wear a U.S. Coast Guard personal flotation device approved for industrial use Personnel Lifting Safety The following safety practices shall be followed when lifting personnel: Hooks with a positive locking mechanism shall be used, and kept pinned closed. No one may ride on leads, buckets, or hooks suspended from a crane, boom, or derrick. Heavy machinery, equipment, or parts that are suspended by slings or hoists shall be blocked or cribbed. - Do not permit workers to work underneath them until they are cribbed.

76 Doc. No.: Page: 72 of 108 No personnel shall be allowed to stand under or near a cable under tension. The crane operator may not carry a load above personnel on the floor. Rest the crane boom in its cradle when the crane is not in operation Crane Suspended Personnel Baskets The use of a crane suspended personnel basket is permitted only when it has been clearly established that conventional means to perform the work would be more hazardous or is not possible because of structural designs or worksite conditions Equipment Criteria When the occupied personnel platform is in a stationary working position, the load and boom hoist brakes, swing brakes, and operator actuated secondary braking and locking features (such as pawls or dogs) or automatic secondary brakes must be engaged. Capacity Use of suspended personnel platforms Description The total load (with the platform loaded, including the hook, load line and rigging) must not exceed 50 percent of the rated capacity for the radius and configuration of the equipment, except during proof testing. Use of boom-attached personnel platform The total weight of the loaded personnel platform must not exceed 50 percent of the rated capacity for the radius and configuration of the equipment, except during proof testing. Hoisting personnel without a personnel platform When hoisting personnel the total load (including the hook, load line, rigging and any other equipment that imposes a load) must not exceed 50 percent of the rated capacity for the radius and configuration of the equipment, except during proof testing Personnel Platform Criteria The system used to connect the personnel platform to the equipment must allow the platform to remain within 10 degrees of level, regardless of boom angle. The suspension system must be designed to minimize tipping of the platform due to movement of employees occupying the platform. The personnel platform itself (excluding the guardrail system and personal fall arrest system anchorages), must be capable of supporting, without failure, its own weight and at least five times the maximum intended load. A grab rail must be installed inside the entire perimeter of the personnel platform except for access gates or doors.

77 Personnel Platform Loading The personnel platform must not be loaded in excess of its rated capacity. Doc. No.: Page: 73 of 108 Use: - Personnel platforms must be used only for employees, their tools, and the materials necessary to do their work. - Platforms must not be used to hoist materials or tools when not hoisting personnel. Exception: - Materials and tools to be used during the lift, if secured and distributed may be in the platform for trial lifts. Materials and tools must be: - Secured to prevent displacement. - Evenly distributed within the confines of the platform while it is suspended. - The number of employees occupying the personnel platform must not exceed the maximum number the platform was designed to hold or the number required to perform the work, whichever is less Trial lift and Inspection A trial lift with the unoccupied personnel platform loaded at least to the anticipated lift weight must be made from ground level, or any other location where employees will enter the platform, to each location at which the platform is to be hoisted and positioned. The trial lift must be performed immediately prior to each shift in which personnel will be hoisted. In addition, the trial lift must be repeated prior to hoisting employees in each of the following circumstances: The PIC must determine that: Safety devices and operational aids required by this section are activated and functioning properly. Nothing interferes with the equipment or the personnel platform in the course of the trial lift. The lift will not exceed 50 percent of the equipment's rated capacity at any time during the lift. The load radius to be used during the lift has been accurately determined. Immediately after the trial lift, the competent person must: Conduct a visual inspection of the equipment, base support or ground, and personnel platform, to determine whether the trial lift has exposed any defect or problem or produced any adverse effect. Confirm that, upon the completion of the trial lift process, the test weight has been removed.

78 Doc. No.: Page: 74 of 108 Immediately prior to each lift: The platform must be hoisted a few inches with the personnel and materials/tools on board and inspected by a competent person to ensure that it is secure and properly balanced. The following conditions must be determined by a competent person to exist before the lift of personnel proceeds: Hoist ropes must be free of deficiencies. Multiple part lines must not be twisted around each other. The primary attachment must be centered over the platform. If the load rope is slack, the hoisting system must be inspected to ensure that all ropes are properly seated on drums and in sheaves. Any condition found during the trial lift and subsequent inspection(s) that fails to meet a requirement of this procedure or otherwise creates a safety hazard must be corrected before hoisting personnel Proof Testing At each jobsite, prior to hoisting employees on the personnel platform, and after any repair or modification, the platform and rigging must be proof tested to 125 percent of the platform's rated capacity. The proof test may be done concurrently with the trial lift. The platform must be lowered by controlled load lowering, braked, and held in a suspended position for a minimum of five minutes with the test load evenly distributed on the platform. After proof testing, a competent person must inspect the platform and rigging to determine if the test has been passed. If any deficiencies are found that pose a safety hazard, the platform and rigging must not be used to hoist personnel unless the deficiencies are corrected, the test is repeated, and a competent person determines that the test has been passed. Personnel hoisting must not be conducted until the competent person determines that the platform and rigging have successfully passed the proof test Personnel Hoisting Safe Work Practices Hoisting of the personnel platform must be performed in a slow, controlled, cautious manner, with no sudden movements of the equipment or the platform. Employees being hoisted must remain in direct communication with the signal person (where used), or the operator. Platform occupants must: - Keep all parts of the body inside the platform during raising, lowering, and horizontal movement. This provision does not apply to an occupant of the platform when necessary to position the platform or while performing the duties of a signal person.

79 Doc. No.: Page: 75 of Not stand, sit on, or work from the top or intermediate rail or toeboard, nor use any other means or device to raise their working height. - Not pull the platform out of plumb in relation to the hoisting equipment. Except over water, employees occupying the personnel platform must be provided and use a personal fall arrest system. The system must be attached to a structural member within the personnel platform. Before employees exit or enter a hoisted personnel platform that is not landed, the platform must be secured to the structure where the work is to be performed, unless the employer can demonstrate that securing to the structure would create a greater hazard. If the platform is tied to the structure, the operator must not move the platform until the operator receives confirmation that it is freely suspended. Tag lines must be used when necessary to control the platform Environmental Conditions Wind: - When wind speed (sustained or gusts) exceeds 20 mph at the personnel platform, the PIC must determine if, in light of the wind conditions, it is not safe to lift personnel. If it is not, the lifting operation must not begin (or, if already in progress, must be terminated). Other weather and environmental conditions: - A qualified person must determine if, in light of indications of dangerous weather conditions, or other impending or existing danger, it is not safe to lift personnel. If it is not, the lifting operation must not begin (or, if already in progress, must be terminated). Winch Operating Safety Size-up load. If weight is unknown, or cannot be calculated, use a calibrated weight indicator. Inspect winch lines before each use and document monthly. Do not use damaged equipment. Do not leave winch controls unattended while winch is operating. When using snatch blocks and deadmen, keep path inside of the winch line clear of personnel and unnecessary equipment.

80 Doc. No.: Page: 76 of Deadman Winch Load Center the load under the hoist or directly in front of the winch. Attach slings to skid loads so that the angle between the sling and the skid base will not be less than 45 degrees. Ensure that the load is balanced since skid-mounted loads can be top heavy. Make sure chains or slings are placed properly in the hook. Secure load before moving. Minimize the distance that suspended loads are being carried. Stand clear and keep fingers clear whenever tension is being applied to a winch line. Never stand under a suspended load or in front of a skidded load. Slowly take up slack. - Do not let line slip through hands. - Use leather palm gloves when handling winch line. During lifting or pulling always use slings; never wrap line around the load. Observe winch line to ensure it does not tangle in the winch spool. Lift or pull load a few inches to test balance and reset slings as necessary to balance load. Use soft lines for tag lines to control motion when moving short distances. Move loads slowly. Carefully release load binders (boomers). Stand to the side of binder handle. Secure winch line when not in use. Keep fingers clear of tailboard when securing hook. Never attach hook to cable using a knot in end of cable.

81 Doc. No.: Safe Work Practices Manual Page: 77 of Winch Maintenance and Inspection Inspection procedures for hoist are divided into five general categories based upon their usage or duty cycle, which in turn determines appropriate intervals for inspections. The following chart lists the inspections that are required for each type of usage category: Pre-Use Daily Inspection Quarterly Inspection Semi-Annual Inspection Annual Inspection Tear-Down Inspection IDLED Not used for 3 months or longer REQUIRED BEFORE PLACED IN SERVICE QO/QI REQUIRED BEFORE PLACED IN SERVICE QO/QI REQUIRED BEFORE PLACED IN SERVICE QO/QI REFER TO NOTE 1 INFREQUENT USAGE less than ten (10) hours per month REQUIRED QO/QI REQUIRED QO/QI REQUIRED QO/QI REQUIRED QI 5 YEARS 3 YEARS IF NOT SUBJECT TO FULL INSPECTION PROGRAM MODERATE USAGE hours per month REQUIRED QO/QI REQUIRED QI REQUIRED QI REQUIRED QI 4 YEARS 2 YEARS IF NOT SUBJECT TO FULL INSPECTION PROGRAM HEAVY USAGE hours per month REQUIRED QO/QI REQUIRED MONTHLY QO/QI REQUIRED QUARTERLY (3months) QI REQUIRED SEMI- ANNUALLY (6months) QI 3 YEARS 1.5 YEARS IF NOT SUBJECT TO FULL INSPECTION PROGRAM SEVERE USAGE 200+ hours per Month or 50% of lifts exceed 75% rated capacity REQUIRED QO/QI REQUIRED MONTHLY QO/QI REQUIRED QUARTERLY (3months) QI REQUIRED SEMI- ANNUALLY (6months) QI 1 YEAR QO = Qualified Operator QI = Qualified Inspector NOTE 1: For idled units with unknown maintenance and repair history, it is highly recommended that the hoist undergo a tear down inspection prior to being placed into service. If personnel lifting is expected with such a hoist, a tear down inspection is required before use.

82 Doc. No.: Page: 78 of CONTROL OF WORK This section describes a systematic approach to be applied to control hazards during all work activities Safe Work Control Safe work control requires the involvement of competent and responsible persons as well as the application of precautionary safety measures. It ensures that responsibility and accountability for safe working practices are passed in a logical sequence to those responsible for the work being performed and ensures that specified effective safeguards are provided. Safe Work Control has four key features: 1. Limits potentially harmful effects of the actions of persons doing work by specifying safety precautions and setting limits to the duration and extent of the work. 2. Encourages attention to safe work practices, by requiring specified individuals to confirm that all hazards have been identified and effective precautions taken. 3. Encourages those responsible for overall site safety to plan the sequence of tasks so that minimal inconvenience and interference is caused to other tasks or production. 4. Allows those responsible for overall site safety to: be aware of the various hazardous activities identify hazardous interactions prioritize conflicting work tasks Job Safety Analysis A JSA shall be completed before beginning any planned work to identify hazards associated with the work scope and implement safeguards to eliminate or mitigate those hazards prior to starting work (Reference Talos Energy SEMS Manual Talos-COMP-001) Work Authorization Procedure Refer to the Work Authorization Flowchart on the following page. 1. Determine if work task involves hazards. 2. Complete a Job Safety Analysis. 3. Determine if isolations or other permits (LOTO, hot work, confined space, etc.) are required. 4. The JSA Form becomes the master control document for all authorized work. Copies of all other required permits and check sheets shall be attached to the JSA Form. 5. Ensure that all other applicable permits and LOTO check sheets are issued.

83 Doc. No.: Page: 79 of When all requirements of the JSA have been satisfied and all documentation is signed, the PIC or Authorized Person can authorize the work and shall file the documentation in a work folder. 7. After completing the work, the JSA must be signed and closed out to allow the equipment to be brought back into service. Work task identified.

Figure 6-1 Work Authorization Flowchart Stopping Work If the scope of work changes in any way from what was evaluated in the JSA, the work shall be stopped immediately. Work shall not commence until a new JSA and applicable permits are completed and approved. Stop work immediately if the platform/facility/location is shut in for any emergency situation. Work shall not continue until the emergency has been resolved and the PIC authorizes work to resume. All personnel, contractors and visitors have the authority and responsibility to stop work or decline to perform an assigned task when an immediate risk or danger exists.

84 Shift Change and Replacement Personnel Doc. No.: Page: 80 of 108 Adequate communication must take place when there is a shift change or a change of personnel at the jobsite. Provisions shall be made for adequate communication of work activities to shift change and replacement personnel. Contractors shall be included in these communications when they perform the work or are affected by it Stop Work Authority Stop Work Authority empowers every individual with the authority and responsibility to stop work when an unsafe condition or act is observed that could affect the safety of personnel and/or the environment. Talos Energy is committed to providing a safe work environment. All personnel have the responsibility to stop the job if unsafe conditions exist. Under NO circumstances shall repercussions be directed towards personnel who exercise Stop Work Authority (SWA). The use of Stop Work Authority must be discussed in all pre-job planning and JSA. If an unsafe condition or act is observed: Take immediate action by stopping the work. Individuals who receive a notification to stop work must comply with that direction immediately. Notify the immediate supervisor of the conducted work. The immediate supervisor of the conducted work is responsible for ensuring the work is stopped in an orderly and safe manner. Discuss and/or determine corrective measures with all involved. Review and/or revise JSA as necessary. If the unsafe condition or act involves an imminent risk or danger, the following is also required: Notify the person with UWA of the Stop Work event. Work may only resume once approval is granted by the individual with UWA for the specific operation or activity. The decision to resume activities must be documented by the UWA in SEMPCheck IRT as soon as practical. It is Talos Energy Offshore, LLC policy that anyone who ignores a SWA action will be removed from the asset as soon as practical.

85 Doc. No.: Page: 81 of Lockout/Tagout This section describes proper LOTO guidelines and procedures to prevent injury to employees due to unexpected energizing or starting of machines and equipment, or an unexpected release of energy. LOTO protects workers from unexpected releases of energy such as electrical, hydraulic, pneumatic, and/or mechanical. Energy sources that must be locked and tagged are: Process fluids Hydraulic Pneumatic Thermal Chemical Electrical Mechanical systems General LOTO Procedure 1. Perform an initial evaluation to identify potential exposure(s). 2. Complete a JSA Form (Talos-SEMS ) prior to beginning the LOTO procedure. 3. Isolate the exposures before beginning work on equipment. 4. Communicate with affected workers. 5. With the approval of the responsible supervisor, follow shutdown procedures for the specific equipment Electrical LOTO Procedure CAUTION: Any employee that notices a failing device must LOCK and TAG open the circuit breaker(s) or approved disconnect device using the LOTO Procedure. Perform the following steps to safely LOTO electrical equipment: 1. The person rendering the device inoperable shall LOCK open the circuit breaker(s) or approved disconnect device, using a lock. 2.

Tag the lock with a dated and signed DANGER, DO NOT OPERATE Tag. 4. CAUTION: The reason for the lockout must be written on the tag (see Safety Standard No. 2, Tagging and Flagging). Other personnel performing work on this equipment or that need the

86 Doc. No.: Page: 82 of 108 equipment to remain inoperative must insert a Lock and Danger Tag in the same lockout. Never install a lock without a Tag. 5. If a circuit cannot be locked out, it must be de-energized and tagged. 6. CAUTION: If the circuit requires disconnection or removal of a component to ensure isolation, a qualified electrician must perform the work. 7. CAUTION: The area must be CLEAR of personnel and tools prior to attempting to start the equipment. 8. Before starting work, TRY to energize the piece of equipment locally to ensure that the proper circuit is de-energized and that an override does not exist. 9. Only the person(s) originally attaching the Lock and Tag is authorized to remove the Lock and Tag unless the person(s) is not available, or other circumstances make it impractical for the original party to remove the Lock and Tag as referenced in CFR (e)(3). Under these conditions, the Supervisor or PIC takes full responsibility and performs the following steps: a. Checks the equipment to determine the repairs have been completed b. Removes the Lock and Tag c. Places the equipment in service d. The supervisor or PIC is responsible for and does the notification to personnel as soon as possible that their Lock(s) and Tag(s) have been removed in these cases. NOTE: Due to shift or personnel changes, the custody of Lock and Key may be transferred between personnel. Tags must reflect the change in responsibility and that isolation is verified. 10. When the work on the equipment is completed and the equipment is ready to return to normal operation, perform the following: a. Contact the person responsible for the area b. Confirm that no hazard to personnel or equipment will be created by retuning the equipment to normal operations. c. After confirmed, remove the Lock and Tag and return equipment to normal operations.

87 Doc. No.: Page: 83 of Blinding Blinding is preferred method of isolation for vessel entry for open flame work on process lines or vessels and for long-term maintenance for the following equipment: Compressors Pumps Process lines Vessels that leak or where improper opening of the isolation valves would re-pressure the equipment being serviced, and/or release flammable, toxic, or high-pressure streams Procedures are in place for the installation and removal of blinds for the following situations: Prevent the release of combustible and toxic substances into the work area Prevent equipment that is isolated for maintenance from re-pressurizing Installed at vessels, equipment, or confined spaces Blind Selection A blind must be able to withstand the maximum possible pressure that it can be exposed to. Permanent blinds must meet applicable design piping standards and codes. Blinds must be properly identified. It is recommended that a blind have a T handle long enough to extend at least two inches beyond pipe flanges. One side of the T handle must have a hole for the attachment of a tag and flag. Blinds purchased from approved manufacturers must be designed specifically for the size and rating of the flanges. This ensures the proper thickness, flatness, and smoothness of the gasket surface. If blinds must be fabricated on site, use steel plate with a yield strength of ASTM A-36 or better and follow the table below. It is also acceptable to consult with an appropriate engineering group to design the blind to withstand maximum pressure.

88 Doc. No.: Page: 84 of Definitions Slip Blind A properly rated and sized metal plate inserted between pipe flange gaskets to prevent the flow of gas or liquid in either direction. Blind flange A full-rated pipefitting used to close the flanged end of an open pipe or valve. Spectacle blind Tapped blind flange A combination blind and spacer, formed from the same piece of material. This item is often a permanent part of the line and is taken out and the other end inserted, depending, upon whether or not flow through that line is desired. A full-rated pipefitting used to close the flanged end of an open pipe or valve with a threaded tap for installing a valve. A vent valve is recommended for the release of any pressure buildup prior to removal of the blind. These Are Not Blinds NOTE: Do not confuse blinds with spacers, screens, or orifice plates.
