Course Length: 3 Days
Course Description
This course introduces process safety management in the oil and gas industry, the elements and benefits of process safety management systems, and tools for implementing and managing a system. In this course, the participant will learn to use tools and techniques for managing process safety. The Center for Chemical Process Safety’s (CCPS) book titled “Guidelines for Risk-Based Process Safety” or “RBPS Guidelines” will be the text for this course.
Participant-centered exercises and selected case studies will be used to build on the concepts that CCPS advocates for risk-based process safety. Throughout the course, participants will be challenged to think about how their process safety management system can be enhanced and modified to meet the concepts of risk-based decision-making. An individual action plan will be developed to apply the information from the course to the workplace.
