Employees performing pressure test were not protected from the hazards by the use of: a. Hydrostatic testing unless analysis demonstrate that hydrostatic testing is not feasible b. Remove employees from the area Among other methods, one feasible and acceptable abatement method to correct this hazard is to: Use hydrostatic (liquid) testing when feasible as specified in ASME B31.1- 2007, move non-essential employees to a safe distance as specified in the Midcontinent Express document entitled "Specifications for Nitrogen Pressure Testing" and provide physical barrier where feasible to protect employees from flying projectiles. Gradually increase pressure in steps until test pressure is reached.
