Safety in Process Equipment
Design & Operation
An Intensive 5 Day Training Course
This course is Designed, Developed, and will be Delivered under iSO Quality Standards
20 - 24 Aug 2017, Dubai
Why ChOOSE thiS training COurSE?
In all steps of designing of pressure equipment related to hydrocarbons and chemical processing and applied in Oil & Gas, Chemical and Process industries, the process safety comes on the top of the list of all considerations. The safety remains to be of utmost importance during operation and maintenance and has to be verified with various methodologies.
This training course provides an overview of important elements of process safety as they are often encountered in today’s industrial practice. The emphasis is on engineering design aspects of Process Safety Management and it will highlight the safeguarding aspects of processing equipment inside the plant. Techniques for analyzing and mitigating process safety hazards applicable to Oil & Gas processing will be reviewed. Integration of the concepts required to achieve an optimum approach to Process Safety Engineering is the main goal of this course. Exercises and useful examples will be utilized throughout the course to emphasize the key learning points.
The training course will feature:
• Importance of the concept of “Inherently Safer Design”
• Design principles based on Standards for safe operation of process equipment
• Selection and sizing of safety valves and pressure relief systems
• Methods for process hazards analysis: HAZOP, LOPA, FMEA
• Detection and prevention methods for fire and explosion accidents
• Plant Equipment Inspection (NDT) and Maintenance Procedures
WhO iS thiS training COurSE fOr?
This training course is suitable to a wide range of professionals but will greatly benefit:
• Operation, technical service and maintenance professionals
• Technical professionals responsible for maintenance and repair of equipment
• Professionals involved in inspection and maintenance and repair
• Project engineers and HSE professionals
• Technical professionals dealing with risk assessment and integrity analysis
What arE thE gOalS?
At the end of this training course, the participants will be able to:
• Understanding different aspects of process design that influence process safety
• Appreciate “inherently safer design” for the entire process plant operation
• Evaluate mechanical integrity of process equipment
• Identify hazards associated with process fluids regarding impact on material degradation
• Follow code requirements for sizing relief valves to ha ndle relief streams
• Operate emergency de-pressuring systems (EDP) in case of fire and gas explosions
hOW Will thiS training COurSE
bE PrESEntED?
This PetroKnowledge training course will be conducted along workshop principles with formal lectures and interactive examples, which will result in the active participation of all delegates in discussions and teamwork. Real life examples will be selected to illustrate the efficient operation and potential technical failures as well as their root causes. The emphasis will be on troubleshooting the problems and maintaining plant safety. There will be ample opportunities for active, open discussion and sharing professional experiences on various safety issues. All course materials will be provided.
