Hot work is any work that involves burning, welding, cutting, brazing, soldering, grinding, using fire- or spark-producing tools, or other work that produces a source of ignition. Welding and cutting operations are common to drilling and servicing operations. Hazards with hot work are most frequently related to Fire and Explosion Hazards and Welding, Cutting, Brazing and Grinding Hazards; but also be aware that exposure to welding arcs and welding fumes can result in serious and disabling long-term health injuries.
