BRITISH DRILLING ASSOCIATION AUDIT OF

LEAD DRILLERS & DRILLERS

This document provides details of the arrangements for the carrying out of annual audits on BDA Lead Drillers or Drillers.

1. GENERAL REQUIREMENTS CSCS = Construction Skills Certification Scheme S/NVQ = Scottish/National Vocational Qualification To be eligible for “Audit” all Lead Drillers or Drillers are required to hold and provide proof of: - 1. CSCS Blue Skilled card in Land Drilling AND 2. S/NVQ Level 2 in Land Drilling These two requirements taken together are known as "The Proof". Any Lead Driller or Driller able to provide The Proof and seeking the status of BDA Audited Lead Driller (or Driller) must first become a Registered Member by registering with the BDA Secretary (See General Registration Procedure). A Lead Driller or Driller may apply to become a BDA Audited Lead Driller (or Driller) at anytime on providing The Proof. On the completion of a satisfactory Audit he/she will be granted the status of a BDA Audited Lead Driller (or Driller). A BDA Audited Lead Driller (or Driller) holding a CSCS Blue Skilled card & S/NVQ Level 2 in Land Drilling will retain his/her status subject to satisfactory Audit; payment of the Audit Fee and renewal of the CSCS card when due. In addition to the Proof a Lead Driller seeking an Audit in the Secondary Category of Ground Investigation must hold a valid and current Emergency First Aid at Work Certificate (EFAW). 2. AUDIT CATEGORIES The Audit Categories are as defined by S/NVQ Level 2 in Land Drilling and certified by the NVQ Awarding Body. These are as follows: • Primary Categories

An individual shall belong to one of the following two Primary Categories: - 1. LEAD DRILLER (the rig operator) 2. DRILLER (the assistant, Drilling Support Operative)

• Secondary Categories The Main Category of LEAD DRILLER has the following Secondary Categories. An individual shall belong to one, or more, Secondary Categories. 1. GROUND INVESTIGATION 2. DRILLING AND GROUTING 3. ANCHORING 4. WATER WELL DRILLING 5. MARINE DRILLING 6. GEOTHERMAL

• Tertiary Categories

The Second Category of GROUND INVESTIGATION has the following Tertiary Categories. An individual shall belong to one, or more, Tertiary Categories. 1. CABLE PERCUSSION 2. ROTARY 3. DYNAMIC SAMPLING

3. GENERAL REGISTRATION PROCEDURE Every new applicant who holds The Proof must • Fill in a registration form (see Appendix A1). • Provide evidence of their CSCS and NVQ status at time of application. • Provide an up to date Curriculum Vitae (CV). • Provide 4 colour passport sized photographs. Any persons registered as above will become Registered Members and their particulars will be recorded on a database at the BDA office. 4. AUDIT CARD A credit card sized Audit card will be issued by the BDA to confirm the Registered Member’s status of BDA Audited Lead Driller (or Driller). There are two types of Audit card, which correspond to the Primary Audit Categories

• Audited Lead Driller card (coloured blue) • Audited Driller card (coloured yellow)

Each card carried a photograph and name of the Registered Member; their BDA and CSCS number, and an expiry date. The Lead Driller card carries details of Secondary and Tertiary Audit categories. Examples of the Audit cards are shown in Appendix A3

The Lead Driller or Driller should carry the card at all times. The Audit card, which remains the property of the BDA, can be withdrawn in circumstances where the Registered Member has been shown not to be adhering to the appropriate levels of competence required by the BDA. 5. ANNUAL AUDIT ARRANGEMENTS The Audit will visit matters over and above the S/NVQ assessment process. To complete the Audit the BDA Auditor will, for example, examine the rig/drill and equipment for safety and fitness for purpose. To maintain his/her status of BDA Audited Lead Driller (or Driller) each Registered Member shall undergo an on-site audit (the Audit) by a BDA Auditor no later than 12 months following their last Audit. The Audit is undertaken to establish that the Registered Member is still complying with the competence and safety standards required by the BDA and that their equipment and tools in use are fit for purpose and safe. The Audit Fee will be invoiced 3 months prior to the due Date of Audit, and must be paid no later than 1 month before an arranged date for the Audit. Should payment not be received one month before the arranged date for Audit, the Auditor's visit will be cancelled, and any subsequent re-arranged date is subject to an interval of one month between receipt of payment and Auditor's visit. Prompt payment is therefore necessary to ensure that the Registered Member's status as BDA Audited Lead Driller (or Driller) is unbroken. Details of the Audit Fees are given in Appendix A2. Whilst it is expected that an Audit will take place within one month of the payment of the Audit Fee and prior to the expiry of the Audit card (the due Date of Audit), it may be possible for the Auditor's visit to be advanced, after agreement between the BDA and the Registered Member, to any earlier date providing the Audit Fee has been received. In such circumstances subject to satisfactory audit the Audit card will be issued and valid for 12 months from the expiry of his/her current Audit card. Similarly where the Audit Fee has been received and an Auditor's visit cannot be arranged in the month prior to the due Date of Audit owing to circumstances outside the control of the Registered Member i.e. working abroad; absence through sickness or injury; unavailability of Auditor etc, the Audit will be arranged at the earliest practicable date and the Registered Member will retain his status until Audit as a BDA Audited Lead Driller (or Driller) for a period of up to 3 months after the due Date of Audit. On completion of a satisfactory Audit, the Audit card will be issued and valid for a period of 12 months from the expiry of his/her current Audit card only. In the event that a BDA Audited Lead Driller (or Driller) does not pay the Audit Fee within 3 months of the due Date of Audit then their status as a BDA Audited Lead Driller (or Driller) will cease. To rejoin the BDA Audit it will be required that this person resubmits “The Proof, pays a rejoining fee (see section 8), pays an Audit Fee and undergoes an Audit. The Auditor will spend half a working day on site with the Registered Member. During this time the Registered Member should be engaged in regular drilling activity and it is his/her responsibility to ensure that drilling activity will be witnessed and observed by the Auditor

Page 6: BRITISH DRILLING ASSOCIATION AUDIT OF LEAD · PDF fileBRITISH DRILLING ASSOCIATION AUDIT OF LEAD DRILLERS & ... BRITISH DRILLING ASSOCIATION AUDIT OF LEAD DRILLERS ... Any Lead Driller

BDA Audit March 2011

during this half day. Should no drilling activity take place, the Audit Fee will be forfeit and a further full payment will be required before a further visit is made by the Auditor. The Auditor will produce two reports following the visit, termed "Auditor's Report" (see Appendix A4) and "Audit Non-Conformance Report", (see Appendix A5). The Auditors Report will be completed by the Auditor and sent directly to the BDA office. The Audit Non-Conformance Report will be signed and dated by the Auditor and the Registered Member before the Auditor leaves site. A copy of this Report is sent to the BDA office and a copy is left on site. It is the responsibility of the Registered Member to rectify all non compliances, within 10 days of the visit within the time period shown in the section "Non-Conformances" and to send this site copy (together with any requested documentation) to the BDA office within 14 days of the audit date giving the dates each Non-Conformance has been closed off and how it has been closed off. The issue of a new valid Audit card is subject to all non-conformances being satisfactorily closed off and the receipt of the site copy of the Audit Non-Conformances Report duly completed with documentation as requested. 6. NON-CONFORMANCE A Non-Conformance occurs where the Auditor identifies in any particular area of the Audit scope or areas of auditee's expertise that the Registered Member has not met a standard at the level expected by the BDA. Any non-conformance will be graded relating to the extent the Registered Member has fallen short of the standard required; the consequences if the non-conformance is not rectified, and the degree that the non-conformance has affected safety and quality of work. The Auditor; the BDA, and the Registered Member should work together to ensure that standards are upheld in the interests of safety, quality and the improvement in working practices. Where the Auditor detects discrepancies between the standards expected and the performance witnessed at Audit it is the Auditor's responsibility to note and classify such Non-Conformances. There are three levels of Non-Conformance. 1. MINOR

A deviation from expected standards that on notification to the Registered Member is rectified on the spot. This rectification is noted on the Non-Conformance Report. Should this report only contain minor non-conformances, the audit will be deemed satisfactory and the BDA office will automatically issue a new valid Audit Card.

Health and Safety Non-Conformance Potential Health & Safety risk that is

easily rectified.

Quality Non-Conformance Minor failure to comply with drilling specification and standards.

2. INTERMEDIATE

Requires attention but rectification not immediately possible during the Auditor's visit. The Auditor and auditee/Registered Member should agree when, and how, this will be rectified. This information is noted on Audit Non-Conformance Report.

The Registered Member should initiate/arrange/provide rectification according to the method and time period agreed. It is his/her responsibility to ensure that written confirmation that the Non-Conformance has been rectified in accordance with method/time scale agreed is noted on the site copy of the Non-Conformance Report. When all the Non-Conformances have been rectified this site copy must be sent to the BDA office.

It is expected that the site copy of the Non-Conformance Report will be received

within 14 days of the date of Audit. The BDA office will await this written confirmation before issuing a new valid Audit

card. It is not the responsibility of the BDA office to make further request for written confirmation. In marginal cases the BDA office may exercise some discretion but this will be the exception rather than the rule.

Definition

Health and Safety Non-Conformance Immediate and potential Health & Safety risk that needs to be addressed.

Quality Non-Conformance Failure to comply with drilling

specification and standards. 3 MAJOR Requires immediate attention within the shortest possible time. If this non-

conformance is not rectified within the timescale advised it will be regarded as a very serious matter. The time scale for rectification can be determined by the Auditor without the agreement of the Registered Member and must always be advised to the Registered Member and noted on the Audit Non-Conformance Report.

If the rectification of the Non-Conformance is not completed or if its rectification is not confirmed in writing within the time scale stipulated, the Registered Member's status of BDA Audited Lead Driller (or Driller) is suspended. The BDA Secretary in his capacity of the Audit Administrator will on suspension confirm the details of the suspension in writing to the auditee and also to his employer where this is relevant. Reinstatement of BDA Audited Lead Driller (or Driller) status cannot be actioned until full confirmation is received that any outstanding Non-Conformance(s) has been

rectified or closed out. On reinstatement a valid Audit card will be issued in the normal way.

Definition

Health & Safety Non-Conformance Immediate and significant Health & Safety risk

Quality Non-Conformance Major failure to comply with drilling specification and standards.

7. COMPLAINTS AND APPEALS PROCEDURES In the event of any compliant or dissatisfaction a Registered Member or an Auditor should provide in writing details of such dissatisfaction or complaint to the BDA Secretary at 'Wayside', London End, Upper Boddington, Daventry, Northampton, NN11 6DP. The BDA Secretary acting in his capacity of Audit Administrator will within 28 days respond to the complainant either to address the matter of dissatisfaction or complaint or to notify the complainant that the matter will be referred as below. If the matter cannot be resolved by the BDA Secretary within a period of 28 days or the Registered Member or Auditor making the complaint is not satisfied that the matter has been satisfactorily resolved by the BDA Secretary's response either the BDA Secretary or the Registered Member/Auditor may request in writing that the matter be discussed and decided upon by the Appeals Committee. This committee will consist of: • Chairman of the BDA • Chairman of BDA Health & Safety Committee • Chairman of BDA Training and Education Committee This Appeals Committee is to meet and report within two months of the referral of the matter in question. The decision of the Appeals Committee is to be recorded and tabled at the next BDA Main Committee meeting following the meeting of the Appeals Committee. The decision of the Appeal Committee is binding on all parties. The BDA Secretary will communicate the decision of the Appeals Committee to the complainant in writing within 7 days of the decision having been made. 8. REJOINING FEE This is applied in the event that a BDA Audited Lead Driller (or Driller) does not pay the Audit Fee within 3 months of the due Date of Audit and thereafter wishes to rejoin the BDA Audit (see section 5). The rejoining fee is £250 + Vat. In addition the normal Audit Fee will also be required.
