PROCESS SAFETY ENGINEERING

This training is necessary for operators of FPSO, offshore production platforms, Onshore production and
process facilities, Olefin plants, CNG Plant operators, NGL/LNG plant operators, lubricant production plant,
petroleum storage depot, refinery/petrochemical plants, Fertilizer plant, gas processing plant and other
off-shore & on-shore plants.
The training is also designed for engineers working in engineering and design companies, EPCM engineers,
Oil and Gas construction companies etc

COURSE CONTENT COMPLIES WITH OSHA 29 CFR ; 1910.119, IEC, API, AND OTHER PSM CODES AND STANDARDS

The survival and sustainability of the process industries lies on the smooth operations of the plants/processes.
It is therefore important to ensure that process risks are identified controlled and managed properly right from
the design phase of projects and throughout the lifecycle of operations.
The colossal loss caused by process related accidents are alarming; as it has led to major fires, explosions and
toxic releases which have incapacitated many lives, major asset damage and threatened business continuity.
To this end, Process Safety Engineering has become a major discipline and key area of focus in managing
process related issues and ensuring facility integrity and operations excellence.
Process safety is a blend of engineering and management skills focused on preventing catastrophic accidents
and near misses, particularly structural collapse, explosions, fires and toxic releases associated with loss of
containment of energy or dangerous substances such as chemicals and petroleum products. These engineering
and management skills exceed those required for managing workplace safety.

About the Course
This course provides the basics of Process Safety Management/Engineering fundamentals for
hydrocarbon /Natural Gas processing and transportation facilities, chemical plant, Refinery and
petrochemical plants, fertilizer plants, NGL/LNG plants etc. The focus of this course is on the
engineering/design aspects of Process Safety Management and engineering requirements required to
ensure plant safety, reliability and integrity throughout the life cycle of plant operations.
Iconic process historical incidents and recurring problem areas will be frequently mentioned,
discussed and analyzed.
Process Hazard Analysis (PHA) techniques will be reviewed. Integration of the concepts covered to
achieve a measured approach to Process Safety Engineering is a key aim of this course as well.
Mind mapping will be done on daily basis and group exercises will be utilized to emphasize the key
learning points.

Learning Outcomes:
 Types of equipment and process systems that have historically been problematic in the
Upstream and Midstream oil and gas industry
 Basics of Risk Analysis
 Thinking in terms of Inherently Safer Design
 Most common process hazard analysis methods and where they are used
 Layers of Protection concept - what the different layers are and how they are applied
 Discuss several of the more common process hazard analyses
 Identify the necessary requirements to organize management of change (MOC) to control
hazards
 Coverage and areas of application of mechanical integrity
 Evaluate an incident investigation to share its lessons with others
 Interpret a Layer of Protection Analysis (LOPA) etc

Who Should Attend:

This course is ideally suited for the new hire engineer, the seasoned engineer newly assigned to
process safety projects, and a supervisor needing an overview of what process safety is, why it is
needed, and how it should be addressed and implemented. It is also useful to seasoned engineers,
supervisors, and managers needing a refresher course to remind them of the fundamentals of process
safety. Anyone responsible for communicating process safety information and expectations to the
front line work force would also find this course to be of help and value.
Designed For:
Facilities, process, and design engineers, maintenance and operations team/managers/supervisors,
Safety officers, Safety Engineers, OIMs, Field superintendents as well as Safety/loss prevention
engineers who require to harness knowledge in the field of Process Safety Management and
Engineering.
This course is essential to the oil & gas, petrochemical, fertilizer, chemical, LPG, CNG, LNG and
even the hydrocarbon storage and steel companies.
