Course Description
Oil, gas and chemical field companies handle the most dangerous chemicals and processes across all industries. Catastrophic incidents and casualties are products of the failure to manage process safety
The international and US standards for Safety Instrumented Systems (SISs), International Electrotechnical Commission IEC 61511 and ISA 84, require that Safety Integrity Levels (SILs) be determined for Safety Instrumented Functions (SIFs) to meet tolerable risk criteria. The standards identify several methods that can be used for this purpose including Layers of Protection Analysis (LOPA), risk graphs and risk matrices. This course explains how these methods can be used. A detailed procedure is provided for using LOPA for SIL determination.Course participants will have sight visit day to a company related to their job specification (Petrochemical company).
Course Objectives
- Gaining an in-depth knowledge of OSHA Process Safety Management (PSM)
