INTRODUCTION TO QUANTITATIVE RISK ASSESSMENT Duration : 2 days Price : $ 995 CEUs: 1.2 Course Design and Objectives The carpenter adage, Measure twice, cut once also applies to process risk management. While many risk management decisions can reasonably be based on HAZOP s, What-If studies and other qualitative risk assessments, some decisions may be so expensive as to warrant a closer review. Quantitative Risk Assessment (QRA) provides that additional level of scrutiny. Compared to qualitative studies, QRA s result in improved consistency and reduced subjectivity in providing a rational decision making process for managing process safety. This course examines the relationship of consequences and their frequencies in understanding and assessing risk. This is presented in both a philosophical and numerical perspective. Techniques to numerically evaluate risks are then presented. The techniques that will be presented are: Layer of Protection Analysis (LOPA), Fault Tree Analysis (FTA) and Chemical Process Quantitative Risk Analysis (CPQRA). The course includes videos that illustrate the concepts of risk analysis. In addition, there are several interactive activities to enhance comprehension and to stimulate class discussion. Each attendee will take home a notebook containing the presentation materials. Managers, engineers and others with responsibility for evaluating hazards and/or for making decisions to manage these hazards.

LOPA: THE VALUE OF LOPA IN RISK REDUCTION Duration : 1 day Price : $ 595 CEUs: 0.6 Course Design and Objectives HAZOPs and What-Ifs are common process hazards analysis (PHA) methods for identifying hazardous scenarios and for determining whether existing safeguards are sufficient for a given scenario. While these methods are often sufficient to evaluate relatively simple scenarios, they are less effective for complex scenarios. In these cases, the PHA team may have difficulty in judging the effectiveness of the safeguards, whether the hazard scenario meets company risk standards, and the effectiveness of recommendations in mitigating excessive risks. The Layer of Protection Analysis (LOPA) method has been developed to improve the evaluation of these complex scenarios. LOPA is a semi-quantitative technique to evaluate the risk of hazard scenarios and safeguard effectiveness. The LOPA method removes much of the subjectivity inherent in HAZOPs and What-Ifs, resulting in improved consistency and increased confidence in the analysis. In this course you will learn how to conduct a LOPA review. You will learn what constitutes an initiating event, how to determine whether safeguards qualify as Independent Protection Layers (IPLs), the effect of enabling events and condition modifiers on risk, and the effectiveness of recommendations in meeting risk standards. This course includes theory and concepts behind LOPA as well as several exercises to practice the LOPA technique. PHA analysts, process safety personnel, project or process engineers and others that are involved with evaluating process risk. Experience with PHAs is desirable but not a requirement.

BEYOND COMPLIANCE: DEVELOPMENT AND IMPLEMENTATION OF PSM IN THE WORKPLACE Duration: 2 days Price: $ 995 CEUs: 1.2 Course Design and Objectives This course teaches attendees how to systematically develop and implement an effective and successful process safety management (PSM) program that not only meets regulatory compliance requirements, but becomes part of a company s safety culture and everyday operations. This course examines the specific OSHA requirements of each of the 14 PSM elements. Case histories of accidents and OSHA compliance citations will be reviewed to identify weaknesses in existing PSM programs, and specific guidance will be given on building a compliant PSM program. The course goes beyond PSM compliance, however, and examines the role and importance of developing and maintaining an effective process safety culture in the workplace, and the role of process safety metrics in maintaining an effective PSM program. It will also introduce the concept of inherent safety. The course includes several videos that illustrate the consequences of failure of PSM. Additionally, interactive exercises are included to promote class discussion. Each attendee will receive a notebook containing the presentation materials, including the presentation, and handouts of example forms and other information that can be immediately used by the attendees to develop their own PSM programs.

UNDERSTANDING AND MITIGATING FLASH FIRES AND EXPLOSIONS Duration : 1 day Price : $ 595 CEUs: 0.6 Course Design and Objectives Every operation involving flammable and combustible substances - including gases, liquids, and bulk solids and powders - requires a Basis of Safety to minimize the potential fire and explosion risk. Several of these Bases of Safety involve controlling various elements of the Fire Triangle: (1) fuel; (2) oxidant; and (3) ignition source. When none of the elements of the Fire Triangle can be controlled with certainty, the risk of fire and explosion will persist and Explosion Protection must be considered. Even when one or more of the elements of the Fire Triangle can be controlled, the consequences of a fire or explosion may be so great as to warrant the use of Explosion Protection to minimize the risk. This course presents the techniques available for both preventing flash fires and explosions and protecting people and plants from their effects. It presents a systematic approach to flash fire and explosion hazard assessment directed towards obtaining a basis of safety for a process. This course is directed primarily at personnel who are involved in processsafety activities, in process operations, research and development, safetydepartment oversight and auditing of operations, and supervisors and managers.

ACCIDENTS ARE PREVENTABLE: THE NEED FOR PROCESS SAFETY IN NON-REGULATED FACILITIES Duration : 1 day Price : $ 595 CEUs: 0.6 Course Design and Objectives The OSHA Process Safety Management (PSM) standard was developed in response to several industrial fatalities resulting from exposure to fires, explosions and toxic releases. While this regulation applies to a large number of facilities, there are several hazard scenarios that were not included in these regulations: dust explosions, release of reactive chemicals, and energy release from high temperature and/or high pressure operations. Yet these events can be and have been just as deadly as incidents from regulated scenarios. In order to reduce the possibility of serious safety incidents, it is critical to apply the principles behind the PSM regulations. In addition to being good industry practice, the OSHA General Duty Clause still applies, giving OSHA the authority to regulate these processes. This course teaches attendees how to develop and implement an effective and successful process safety management program for non-psm regulated processes. Case histories of accidents in non-psm facilities will be reviewed to illustrate areas where PSM program elements would have significantly improved plant safety. Each attendee will receive a notebook containing the presentation materials, including the presentation, and handouts of example forms and other information that can be immediately used by attendees to develop their own PSM programs.

WEBINARS ATEX FOR AMERICANS @ 1-Hour - CEUs: 0.1 Webinar Overview The acronym ATEX refers to two different pieces of European legislation ( Directives ), both concerned with explosive atmospheres (flammable gas or vapor, combustible dust, fibers, hybrid mixtures, etc.).

WEBINARS TOP TIPS FOR PRACTICAL EXPLOSION PROTECTION @ 1-Hour - CEUs: 0.1 Webinar Overview Explosion prevention and protection systems are used across most industry sectors to protect vessels handling flammable dusts, gases, and vapors, usually when other controls to avoid ignition are deemed insufficient. Examples include inerting, explosion venting, containment and suppression sometimes combined with explosion isolation. Operating companies often place a high level of confidence in these systems working when required often at the expense of other measures such as avoiding ignition sources. But more often than not, we find these systems to be incorrectly designed, operated, maintained, located or simply lacking a suitably documented design basis. This includes but is not limited to: Lack of suitable explosion data Undersized explosion vents Incorrectly installed or positioned explosion vents Poor maintenance Lack of data on explosion strength of equipment Changes to process materials without re-assessing protection system design Modification of protection systems without proper change control De-activating of system due to interference with plant operability Use outside of design limits H&S personnel, Engineering staff, Plant Engineers, Regulatory staff & staff in hazardous areas.
