HE2311 : Process Hazard Analysis Methods Mainly HAZOP & LOPA

This practical and highly-interactive course
includes various practical sessions and
exercises. Theory learnt will be applied using
our state-of-the-art simulators.
This course is designed to provide participants with
a detailed and up-to-date overview of Process
Hazard Analysis Methods Mainly HAZOP and
LOPA. It covers the process safety management
(PSM), process hazard analysis (PHA) and hazard
identification fundamentals; the risk assessment
principles, process information requirements for
PHA and the purpose and scope of HAZOP and
LOPA; the HAZOP methodology and structure and
HAZOP team roles and responsibilities; the guide
words and process parameters, deviation analysis
techniques, HAZOP documentation and reporting;
and the risk ranking within HAZOP and safeguard
identification and evaluation.
During this interactive course, participants will learn
the human factors in HAZOP studies, specialized
HAZOP applications and common HAZOP
challenges and best practices; the layer of
protection analysis (LOPA) and initiating events
analysis; the independent protection layers (IPLs),
consequence scenarios and risk criteria; the
probability of failure on demand (PFD), LOPA
calculations and documentation and safety
instrumented systems (SIS) fundamentals; the SIL
determination using LOPA, advanced LOPA
applications and integration of HAZOP and LOPA;
and the PHA revalidation and continuous
improvement.
