Commissioning new plants - hazards

In a new plant that was being commissioned, Hot Oil, used as a heating medium, leaked from a flange. The leak was on the second floor and the temperature of the medium was about 300 deg C. The leaking hot oil, caused major fires and a section of the new plant was destroyed. Ensure that commissioning is done in a planned way and that checklists are followed.
