PESO Registration Certification

The Petroleum and Explosives Safety Organization, abbreviated as PESO, is a mid-level Nodal organization founded in September 1898. This organization is mainly responsible for managing and administering risky substances such as bio-chemicals, gas cylinders, petroleum, and explosives that possess their own significance and risk to several human lives.

Different divisions of the PESO are as below:

This PESO organization functions under the policy of agreement “Safety First” in a queue with the powers granted to it by the policy mentioned below:

Explosive Act 1884
Petroleum Act 1934 & Rules 2002
Cinematographic Film Rules 1948
Inflammable Substance Act 1952
Calcium Carbide Rules 1987
Ammonium Nitrate Rules 1987
Gas Cylinders Rules 2002

We are all aware of how dangerous petroleum and compressed gases are and how even a single ignite coming into contact with them can cause a catastrophe that puts human life in danger. Hazards associated with compressed gases are combustible, poisonous, oxidizing, and corrosive.

For more than a century, the PESO has achieved a legendary grade as an organization of distinction in the regions connected to risky material safety in refining/ manufacturing, storage, handling, transportation, and usage. Today, the PESO organization works on various topics such as petroleum, compressed gases, explosives, gas cylinders, cross-country pipelines, Ammonium Nitrate, Flame Proof electric fittings, and others.

Products Covered by PESO

Here is a comprehensive list of the products that require certification. A PESO registration is necessary for electrical equipment that must endure extremely corrosive seawater or extremely hot situations in addition to the aforementioned products. Purely mechanical parts that are employed in hazardous regions in India must also get PESO certification.

For explosion-proof products, one may often adhere to a pretty straightforward rule: PESO is required for all items that require either IECEx or ATEX certification.

Process of PESO Certification

Documentation

Prepare the application with the necessary paperwork, including the test results and ATEX/IECEx certificates. Test results must be at least two years old. Equipment that has undergone thorough testing and been given the all-clear to operate safely in an explosive or hazardous environment is given an ATEX certificate. IECEx is a certification to Standards for equipment used in explosive or dangerous environments.

Submission of Application

Submit your application to the PESO authorities together with the necessary business information, such as sales figures, client lists, and client testimonials.

Scrutiny

The paperwork and application are reviewed by PESO officials.

Audit

Only specific products, such as pressure vessels, are subject to factory audits.

PESO Certification

he PESO Certificate will be issued if PESO personnel are satisfied with the supporting documentation and test results.

Licence to Authorized Indian Representatives

Additionally, the Authorized Indian Representative receives a license.

Please Note

Once the PESO license has been approved, the product may be imported. The authorities typically accept test reports that have received international recognition, such as IECEx or ATEX. In any case, the products must be assessed in India if you don't have these test findings.

TAT

90 - 100 Days

License Validity

After three years have passed, the license must be renewed. Static pressure vessel PESO licenses are only good for three years before they need to be renewed.

What is PESO Certification?

The Chief Controller of Explosives (CCOE) is another name for the Petroleum and Explosive Safety Organization (PESO). The safety requirements for the manufacture, importers, exporters, sellers, storage, transit, and handling of explosives, combustible materials, pressure vessels, petroleum, and compressed gases are managed, controlled, and looked after by this organization. Additionally, it controls and manages Indian petrol stations. The Department for Promotion of Industry and Internal Trade and the Ministry of Commerce and Industry is in charge of PESO, an independent regulatory authority.

The oil and gas industry's mandatory approval mechanism for products that deal with gases, are used in the oil industry, or must withstand severely corrosive environments is described in PESO Certification. Nagpur, Maharashtra, is home to PESO's headquarters.

The SMPV (U) Rules, 1981

Some of the prime rules associating with the PESO certificate are as follows:

  1. The Chief Controller must approve all 1981 drawings, designs, specifications, and codes. According to this rule, the Chief Controller is the qualified individual who is an expert for performing the test, examination, inspections, and certification of the installation and transport vehicles.

  2. The district authority must issue no-objection certificates or notify the applicants in writing of their reluctance to do so, together with reasons, within two months, according to a new sub-rule of Rule 47(7).

  3. General Exemptions - Vessels that are a part of a processing facility are exempt from all of the provisions of these regulations. For this rule, vessels forming part of a processing plant are defined as vessels in which a unit process or unit operation is performed. And vessels that contain, as a process requirement, a compressed gas that is received from and consumed in the same processing plant, provided that the water capacity of the vessel or vessels is such that the gas stored therein at the maximum working pressure does not exceed the requirement for feeding the consuming point(s).

  4. Limitation on Manufacturer, Filling and Import
    1. No one is allowed to transport or fill a vessel with compressed gas unless the vessel complies with one of the types, standards, or codes listed in rule 12.
    2. No vessel permitted under sub-rule (1) may be produced without the Chief Controller's prior approval.
    3. No one may import a vessel without the Chief Controller's prior consent.

  5. Restraint on Delivery & Dispatch
    1. Any compressed gas that has been loaded into a vessel may not be sent to anyone besides the owner of a storage permission issued in accordance with these rules, a port administration, or a railroad administration.
    2. Any compressed gas provided or delivered in accordance with subparagraph (1) shall not be in excess of the amount that the recipient's license permits him to store.

  6. Children aged under 18 and intoxicated persons is prohibited

  7. Fires, lights, and smoking, etc., at any time in proximity to the places are prohibited where any compressed gas is stored, transported or handled in a vessel.

  8. Person in charge of supervision and operation on the licensed property must be knowledgeable about the machinery and should be trained enough in handling hazardous materials.

  9. Vessels except when they are opened for the purposes of filling, cleaning, or making them gas-free, all empty vessels carrying combustible or toxic gases must be kept securely closed until they have been cleaned or released of the gas, as the case may be.

  10. Any alteration to the machine or pressure vessel must be submitted for inspection prior to its usage again.

Static and Mobile Pressure Vessels (SMPV) Unfired Rules for PESO Certificate

The Static and Mobile Pressure Vessels are referred to as SMPVs. Static pressure containers are made to store linear loads with mass and volume variations that significantly exceed the features of the material's ambient pressure. This type of fabrication is justified by safety considerations, with the prevention of contaminating pure contents coming in second. The purpose of pressure vessels is to store liquids, gases, or vapors under high pressure.

Timeline : Approx 6-8 weeks after submission of application.

Validity : It is granted for 5 years initially and has to be renewed after that by paying the government fees.

Note: 1.) In case of PESO import license, AUDIT OF THE FOREIGN MANUFACTURER IS NOT CONDUCTED, and rest of the procedure remains the same.
2.) License number mentioned on the CDSCO registration certificate has to be mentioned on the products / packaging.
3.) Test license is also required in case of Indian manufacturers.
