Course overview

Introduction to Process Safety

Overview of the significance of process safety management in the oil and gas industry, setting the stage for a deep dive into Quantitative Risk Assessment (QRA).

Process Safety Culture

Detailed exploration of methods and techniques for identifying potential hazards within industrial operations, emphasising the critical first step in risk management.

Identify and Assess Risk

This module will cover essential topics including hazards and risks, the process of risk assessment, and key assessment techniques such as HAZID, Bow-Tie analysis, and LOPA. We’ll also explore the importance of proper documentation and record-keeping in risk management.

Managing Process Safety Risks

This module covers the consequence modeling and frequency assessment of fire and explosion incidents, providing learners with the tools to predict and mitigate the impacts of such events.

Review and Improvement

An in-depth look at hazards not directly related to hydrocarbons but equally critical to the safety of oil and gas operations, including electrical, mechanical, and environmental risks.
