Z246.1-13 - Security management for petroleum and natural gas industry systems
Preface
This is the second edition of CSA Z246.1, Security management for petroleum and natural gas industry systems. It supersedes the previous edition published in 2009. This Standard uses the concept of a security management program, and in particular risk management, to address security issues. This Standard provides a performance-based approach for use by the operator to establish governance, conduct planning, implement and improve security operations (including detection and mitigation practices), and refine the security management program through change management and audit processes. This approach allows users to apply this Standard across the petroleum and natural gas industry. This Standard is one of several security risk management tools. Operators should work with other industries, as well as governmental agencies, in order to effectively manage the security of their energy infrastructure. A security management program should complement existing programs and should consider the risks and criticality of the assets being protected. Therefore, this Standard should be read in conjunction with other security legislation, safety legislation, best practices, policies, standards, and applicable codes (e.g., CSA Z662, CAN/CSA-ISO 31000, and CSA Z1600).Scope
1.1 This Standard specifies criteria for establishing a security management program for petroleum and natural gas industry systems to ensure security threats and associated risks are identified and managed. This Standard provides mitigation and response processes and procedures to prevent and minimize the impact of security incidents that could adversely affect people, the environment, assets, and economic stability. 1.2 This Standard applies to all petroleum and natural gas industry systems (as illustrated in Figures 2 and 3), including- pipeline systems handling
- oil;
- gas;
- oil-field water;
- multi-phase fluids;
- slurries; and
- system supports, including
- meter stations;
- compressor stations;
- pump stations;
- tank farms;
- terminals; and
- all assets that support Items 1) to 5);
- liquefied natural gas (LNG) production, storage, and handling facilities;
- storage of hydrocarbons in underground formations;
- petrochemical installations, including
- refineries;
- gas processing plants;
- liquefied petroleum gas plants;
- synthetic natural gas plants; and
- coal gasification plants; and
- oil and gas exploration, development, production, treatment, processing, and storage operations not covered in Items a) to d).
