JOB PURPOSE / OBJECTIVE

To coordinate and oversee the Permit to Work (PTW) process for mechanical isolation activities, ensuring safe execution of high-risk work on mechanical, hydraulic, pneumatic, and process systems.

The role independently verifies isolation documentation, enforces LOTO and PTW compliance, and supports the PTW Control Room by managing permit activation, suspension, or closure where safety requirements

are not met, while facilitating safe isolation and de-isolation in accordance with IMI procedures.

KEY ACCOUNTABILITIES

• Coordinate PTW activation, suspension, and closure for all mechanically related work in accordance with PTW Procedure.

• Verify that mechanical isolation certificates, isolation lists, spading/blinding records, and LOTO tags are complete and valid before activating any mechanical‑related permit.

• Liaise with Mechanical Isolation Authorities (MIA) to confirm that isolations and de‑isolations are performed safely and documented properly.

• Ensure correct use of mechanical LOTO devices such as blinds, spades, spool removals, valve locks, and tagging systems in accordance with LOTO Procedure.

• Monitor SIMOPS involving mechanical systems and identify conflicts between isolation activities, pressure systems, stored energy, and other high‑risk operations.

• Maintain accurate tracking of all mechanical isolations, long‑term isolations, and associated certificates within the PTW Control Room.

• Conduct routine field checks to verify that mechanical isolation points, tags, and PTW postings match the approved documentation.

• Communicate with Performing Authorities (PA) and Issuing Authorities (IA) to coordinate safe execution of mechanical work, place permits on hold where required controls are not met and escalate unresolved

conflicts through the PTW governance line.

• Participate in daily PTW coordination meetings and provide updates on mechanical isolation status, conflicts, and operational constraints.

• Ensure adherence to IMI working hour requirements, follow assigned schedules, maintain an appropriate balance of working hours between field duties and the PTW Control Room, and carry out any additional

HSE‑related tasks assigned by the direct supervisor to support operational safety.
