Overview:
HAZOP (Hazard and Operability Study) is a systematic methodology employed to identify potential hazards and operability issues within a system that may lead to the production of nonconforming products. The fundamental principle of HAZOP is that risk events arise from deviations from intended design or operational norms.
This advanced training course is highly interactive and equips participants with the skills necessary to effectively conduct and interpret HAZOP studies. Real-world case studies will be utilized to illustrate the principles and applications of HAZOP within the process industries, allowing delegates to gain practical experience through both generic and industry-specific examples.
Program Objectives:
By the conclusion of the Advanced Process HAZOP Training Course, participants will be able to:
- Comprehend the key concepts of Risk Assessment and Risk Management.
- Evaluate and estimate risks using Qualitative, Semi-Quantitative, and Quantitative methodologies.
- Implement various Hazard Identification and Analysis techniques, including Checklists, Risk Profiling, HAZOP, FMEA (Failure Mode and Effects Analysis), and Task-Based Risk Assessment.
- Analyze causes and consequences through the application of Fault Trees and Event Trees to enhance accident prevention strategies.
- Understand the advantages and limitations of HAZOP studies.
- Identify the roles and responsibilities of the Team Leader, Scribe, and team members during HAZOP sessions.
- Facilitate a HAZOP study effectively.
Target Audience:
-
- Health, Safety, and Environment (HSE) technical personnel.
- Project engineers involved in system design and modifications.
- Maintenance engineers responsible for operational integrity.
- Process engineers engaged in design and modification processes.
- Instrumentation and control engineers working within process industries.
