Performance Evidence

Evidence required to demonstrate competence in this unit must be relevant to and satisfy all of the requirements of the elements, performance criteria and range of conditions on at least two separate occasions and include:
applying environmental and sustainable energy principles and practices applying planning skills applying problem-solving skills applying relevant work health and safety (WHS)/occupational health and safety (OHS) requirements, including: following emergency response procedures maintaining a safe and clean workplace working safely with hazardous materials and equipment hazard identification and reporting implementing risk control measures applying relevant legislation, standards, regulations and codes of practice communicating effectively with relevant stakeholders completing procedures for monitoring and controlling gas infrastructure completing relevant documentation, reports and records conducting quality and safety checks dealing with unplanned events/situations in accordance with workplace procedures in a manner that minimises risk to personnel and equipment evaluating, responding and reporting threats to pipeline systems operation following workplace procedures identifying system constraints monitoring and controlling gas infrastructure using control centre systems operating communications equipment operating supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) and other associated information systems participating in handover planning to use control centre systems to monitor and control gas infrastructure reporting and following up on faults and incidents responding to alarms and out-of-specification conditions work safely in the gas industry by reducing risk.

Knowledge Evidence

Evidence required to demonstrate competence in this unit must be relevant to and satisfy all of the requirements of the elements, performance criteria and range of conditions and include knowledge of:

Assessment Conditions

As a minimum, assessors must satisfy applicable regulatory requirements, which include requirements in the Standards for Registered Training Organisations current at the time of assessment. As a minimum, assessment must satisfy applicable regulatory requirements, which include requirements in the Standards for Registered Training Organisations current at the time of assessment. Assessment must occur in workplace operational situations where it is appropriate to do so; where this is not appropriate, assessment must occur in simulated workplace operational situations that replicate workplace conditions. Assessment processes and techniques must be appropriate to the language, literacy and numeracy requirements of the work being performed and the needs of the candidate. Resources for assessment must include access to: a range of relevant exercises, case studies and/or other simulations relevant and appropriate materials, tools, equipment and personal protective equipment (PPE) currently used in industry applicable documentation, including workplace procedures, equipment specifications, regulations, codes of practice and operation manuals.
