COURSE OVERVIEW

 

This practical and highly-interactive course includes real-life case studies and exercises where participants will be engaged in a series of interactive small groups and class workshops. 

 

The aim of the course is to give the participants a comprehensive understanding of the various aspects of Technical Integrity and Engineered Safety in Process Plant. The course combines current industry practices with engineering methods and applicable codes and standards. The course will cover the development and implementation of facility integrity and technical audits; the scope and key elements of mechanical integrity, reliability and engineered safety in process plants; and the causes and implications of industrial failures. 

 

Further, the course will also cover the consequences of pressure and storage equipment failures in vessels, exchangers, heaters, storage tanks and piping; the codes, standards and specifications used in safety design and the integration of the operability and maintainability in design; the types and various applications used in engineering material and ensure that the guidelines in the selection methodology are being met; and the methodology and design considerations of piping system in pressure and mechanical integrity. 

  

Moreover, the course will discuss the principles, guidelines and best practices in safeguarding systems and its safety systems key design considerations; investigating the various failures in piping, rotating equipment, pressure vessels, piping and boilers and its causes, reliability improvement and prevention; and the correct procedures involved in the inspection, testing, repair and monitoring of piping systems and equipment in refineries, petrochemical and process plants. 

 

Participants of the course will be able to identify and assess hazards; carryout risk analysis and HAZOP studies; integrate the safety management plan using the various risk analysis processes; implement the principles of fitness-for-service and engineering critical assessment; employ the best maintenance strategies and programs; rerate piping and pressure vessels; ensure the correct application of the various methods of troubleshooting plant equipment and piping system; and carryout integrity audits. 

 

At the completion of the course, the participants will gain enough knowledge that will help them to improve their efficiency in managing facility integrity in a professional manner. The course will help delegates to develop and implement a mechanical integrity program for critical process equipment. The course manual will be valuable for future reference.
