The absence of evidence is not the evidence of absence. O & G Scenarios. Offshore facilities – living quarters turn around of occupant is very frequent, leaving little time to clean and disinfect the environment. O & G Scenarios.
E N D
O & G Scenarios • Offshore facilities – living quarters turn around of occupant is very frequent, leaving little time to clean and disinfect the environment.
O & G Scenarios • Offshore food storage – food supplies are sent in bulk. (Need to be kept in a clean environment to avoid them from getting contaminated fast).
O & G Scenarios • 24/7 manned control room (must be kept clean/sterilized at all times).
O & G Scenarios • Absenteeism due to health condition - results in reduced productivity.
Offshore/onshore indoor climate/HVAC system • Offshore ventilation • Positive pressure • Safety • recirculated air being used. Pressure to be kept 25-50 pa over the outside ambient pressure.
Issues / problems at O&G facilities Over-pressure principle (positive pressure) Stale air in accommodation Quarters, offices, kitchen Quarters &control Rooms STALE AIR! Pressure to be kept 25-50 pa over the outside ambient pressure Resulting in a build up and habitation of fungus, bacterial, and mold.
Issues / problems Offshore living quarters with IAQ issues / problems • Poor ventilation • Stale odor • High turn around of occupant - hard to keep it clean
Issues / problems Control rooms / office etc. with IAQ issues / problems • Poor ventilation • Stale odor • Contamination from occupants
The Facts The US EPA (U.S. Environmental Protection Agency) states that poor indoor air quality is one of the top five environmental risks to public health.
The Facts Indoor air pollution is a silent threat. You are more likely to get sick from pollution in your home and office than from pollution in the air outside.
The Facts We actually spend 90% of our time indoors in average. OUTDOOR 10% INDOOR 90%
The Facts All cleaning and scrubbing only works on surface, air need to be sterilized and disinfected.
Effects from Poor Indoor Air Quality Spread of airborne related diseases
Effects from Poor Indoor Air Quality Exposure to harmful chemicals such formaldehyde from paint and cigarette smoke
Effects from Poor Indoor Air Quality Developments of mold, fungi and mildew
Effects from Poor Indoor Air Quality Long and repetitive illness due to source of disease is not looked into
Effects from Poor Indoor Air Quality Unhealthy environment for the people with allergic problems
Effects from Poor Indoor Air Quality Increase in cost and expenses due to medical fees, cleaning, maintenance
EU & WHO Air Quality Guidelines The WHO guidelines for indoor air quality, developed under the coordination of WHO/Europe, address three groups of issues that are most relevant for public health:
