Department · COMAH Report
Laboratory and Product Quality
Scope
Sampling, analysis, online analysers, product certification and off-specification handling. The function that tells operations what is in the pipe and tells customers what is in the ship.
The reframing
"A laboratory is easily seen as a service to Commercial. Yet feed contaminants such as mercury attack equipment, analysers feed control and safety systems, and sampling hazardous streams is itself high-risk work. Mapped against the framework, the laboratory owns data that process safety depends on."
