INTRODUCTION
When it is required identify and quantify hazards and potential accident scenarios associated with hazardous processes, it may be necessary to conduct a process risk analysis. Conducting this analysis requires the application of advanced hazard identification and analysis techniques as many of the hazards are not obvious and can occur at any time during the processing activities.
The outcome of these analyses provides managers and engineers with unique insights that help in the selection of the most cost-effective solution among various alternatives. It thus enables appropriate decision-making to limit risk levels in process situations. The course will cover the basics of this approach as well as advanced features in the practices and procedures involved in the implementation.
Participants will be exposed to current approaches and methodologies used to classify & quantify hazards. The course will provide the technical and a leadership skill necessary for decision-making based on the likelihood and consequences of various hazards and is the first step for organizations interested in developing in-house leadership skills in process risk analysis.
WORKSHOP OBJECTIVES
The course objectives include:
- To provide participants with a technical and managerial understanding of Process Risk Analysis
- Learn practical ways of using the results of risk analysis to effectively reduce risk by minimizing the consequences and impacts of chemical accidents involving highly hazardous chemicals on people and environment
- Use risk analysis results as one of the inputs in the decision-making process
- Appreciate the strengths, limitations, and possible uses of process risk analysis to support Process Safety Management
The course aims to impart these principles using practical application of techniques, with industry-related case studies and examples.
