Process Safety

Safety in process design includes a wide range of subjects with many applications in Oil & Gas, Chemical and Process industries, related to hydrocarbon and chemical processing. This course provides an overview of the important elements of process safety that are often encountered in today’s industrial practice. The emphasis of this course is on Engineering Design aspects of Process Safety Management and it will highlight the safeguarding aspects of processing equipment inside the plant. Techniques for analysing and mitigating process safety hazards applicable to hydrocarbon processing will be reviewed. Integration of the concepts required to achieve an optimum approach to Process Safety Engineering is the main goal of this course. Exercises and useful examples will be utilized throughout the course to emphasize the key learning points.
