ZAP Engineering site safety management at a sour gas treating and cryogenic NGL facility — Texas

Onshore Oil & Gas Midstream

Site Safety Management for a Sour Gas Processing Facility

Full-time on-site safety management for construction of a greenfield sour gas treating and cryogenic NGL processing facility in the Permian Basin of Texas.

Project Overview

ZAP was engaged by a Permian Basin midstream operator to provide multidiscipline detailed engineering and procurement for a greenfield sour gas treating and cryogenic natural gas liquids processing facility, and to provide full-time safety management for the construction site. ZAP maintained a dedicated safety organization on site for the duration of construction, integrating safety oversight with the engineering and procurement scope so that hazards were resolved in design rather than in the field.

Sour Service Hazard Management

Sour service introduced hydrogen sulfide exposure risk, requiring continuous atmospheric monitoring, controlled work permitting, and close coordination across concurrent trades working in congested process areas. ZAP’s integrated approach embedded safety oversight into the engineering and procurement process itself, resolving hazards in design rather than relying solely on field mitigation.

850,000-Manhour Safety Track Record

ZAP’s safety team managed more than 850,000 craft manhours on site without incident, demonstrating ZAP’s ability to hold full-time safety accountability on a large, high-hazard facility while simultaneously delivering its own engineering and procurement scope. The project reflects ZAP’s capability to integrate safety leadership directly into complex, high-hazard construction programs.
