Managing Risk, Reliability and Loss Prevention in Process Plants Course
Introduction:
Course Objectives:
Upon the successful completion of this course, each participant will be able to:-
- Apply and gain in-depth knowledge of risk and reliability management as well as the loss prevention in the process plant.
- Employ proper methodology on hazard identification with various types of process plant incidents.
- Identify several risk and reliability criteria by calculating and displaying the risks of potential losses and carry out the assessment of the severity of the consequences of hazardous incidents related to fires, BLEVEs, toxic gas escapes, and other explosions.
- Discuss the process of assessing the frequency of likelihood of potentially hazardous incidents or losses thorough analysis of causes of incidents using fault trees and availability and modeling the production capability of a plant
- Determine the applications of hazard analysis and risk management through the scope of quantitative risk assessment related to computer modeling, uses in selling buffer zones, strengths and limitations use, and abuses.
- Implement several systematic approaches to risk reduction in connection to transferring the risk and reducing fire risks in process plants and improve knowledge in safety, reliability, and environmental specification through management associated with management of risk and reliability of existing plants and operations.
- Explain the components of the software or human factor including safety culture, safety climate, and human factor by being aware of the various effects of software standards on quantitative risk assessment.
- Demonstrate several roles of risk and reliability manager in accordance with performance authority and responsibility.
Who Should Attend?
This course is intended for all safety and reliability management specialists, managers, engineers, and personnel responsible for the safety of the process plant. The Process Risk Assessment & Risk Management training course is aimed at all personnel involved in loss control and accident prevention. This program is based on a multi-disciplinary approach and is also beneficial to all personnel from senior management to supervisors.
