Course Introduction
In all steps of designing of
pressure equipment related to hydrocarbons and chemical processing and applied
in Oil & Gas, Chemical and Process industries, the process safety comes on
the top of the list of all considerations. The safety remains to be of utmost
importance during operation and maintenance and has to be verified with various
methodologies.
This Safety in Process Equipment
Design & Operation training course provides an overview of important
elements of process safety as they are often encountered in today’s industrial
practice. The emphasis is on engineering design aspects of Process Safety
Management and it will highlight the safeguarding aspects of processing
equipment inside the plant. Techniques for analyzing and mitigating process
safety hazards applicable to Oil & Gas processing will be reviewed.
Integration of the concepts required to achieve an optimum approach to Process
Safety Engineering is the main goal of this training course. Exercises and
useful examples will be utilized throughout the training to emphasize the key
learning points.
