This module has an updated learning pathway that can now be stacked towards the Graduate Certificate in Process Safety Operations.
This 2-day workshop specially developed to help process engineers, operators, safety personnel and management ensure safer working conditions at major hazard installations, with an emphasis on runway reactions and dust handling.
In this practical workshop, learners will be introduced to techniques for analysing and mitigating process safety hazards. Throughout the course, frequent reference will be made to historical process incidents that serve to illustrate what happens when process safety principles are not fully understood or complied with.
By the end of the workshop, leaners be equipped to identify historically problematic equipment and systems in major hazard installations. They will also gain a solid understanding of hazard detection, mitigation methods, and strategies for inherently safer design.
This course was previously titled "Designing and Engineering for Safe Operations: Runaway Reactions and Dust Handling"
Who Should Attend
- Managers, engineers, operators, safety advisors and risk management practitioners
What You Will Learn
- Recognise the type of equipment and process systems that have historically been problematic in the upstream oil and gas industry
- Think in terms of inherently safer design
- Understand detection and mitigation methods for different types of hazards
