[In-House] Process Safety Management Level 3- Process Hazard Analysis and HAZOP Coordinator (3 days)

[In-House] Process Safety Management Level 3- Process Hazard Analysis and HAZOP Coordinator (3 days)

PSM Level 3 Training – an advanced program designed to enhance your expertise in Process Safety Management (PSM). This course equips participants with the tools and techniques necessary to identify, analyze, and mitigate potential risks in industrial processes, ensuring a safer and more reliable operational environment. In this training, you will explore a wide range of methodologies and frameworks, from simple checklist approaches to in-depth hazard analysis techniques like HAZOP and Fault-Tree Analysis. Through a mix of theoretical knowledge, practical exercises, and collaborative workshops, you’ll develop the skills to tackle complex safety challenges and implement effective solutions.

Course information

HRDF claimable under SBL-khas

Process Safety Management (PSM) training targets companies that handle hazardous chemicals or operate processes that pose significant safety risks. Common industries and companies include:

  1. Chemical Manufacturing: Companies producing chemicals, fertilizers, pesticides, or pharmaceuticals.
  2. Oil and Gas: Refineries, petrochemical plants, and natural gas processing facilities.
  3. Power Generation: Facilities using hazardous materials like ammonia for cooling or energy production.

[01] OBJECTIVES

Participants will be benefit by being able to:

  • Introduction to PHA Tools – Bow Tie Diagram, 5 Why, Checklist, What If, FMEA, Fault Tree and learn how to use it
  • Understanding the HAZOP process steps and HAZOP Rules;
  • Identifying HAZOP Nodes from the Piping and Instrumentation Diagram;
  • Applying HAZOP Guidewords to identify cause of deviation from normal operating conditions for the identified nodes;
  • Determining the consequences of the deviation and identifying safeguards/control measures for the consequences;

[02] COURSE CONTENTS
Module 1
Checklists
This method uses established codes, standards and well-understood hazardous operations as a checklist against which to compare a process. A good checklist is dependent on the experience level and knowledge of those who develop it.
Module 2
What If
This approach uses a multi-skilled team to create and answer a series of “what-if” type questions. This method has a relatively loose structure and is only as effective as the quality of the questions asked and the answers given.
Module 3
Failure Mode and Effect Analysis (FMEA)
A systematic study of the consequences of failure (breakdown) of certain operational hardware such as transmitters, controllers, valves, pumps, etc.
Module 4
Fault-Tree Analysis
This method draws a picture (model) that shows what undesirable outcomes might result from a specific initiating event (for example, a pipe rupture in a pipe rack). It uses graphics and symbols to show the possible order of events which might result in an accident. This method is sometimes used in accident investigations to determine probable cause.
Module 5
Five Why (5 Why)
Five whys (5 whys) is a problem-solving method that explores the underlying cause-and-effect of particular problems. The primary goal is to determine the root cause of a defect or a problem by successively asking the question “Why?”.
Module 6
A Bow Tie Diagram
A bow tie diagram displays a small set of hazard scenarios from a process. Typically, individual bow tie diagrams will be constructed for the most important top events from a PHA study. Usually, there will be multiple important top events and thus multiple bow tie diagrams for a process.
Module 7
Hazard Operability (HAZOP)
•Introduction by Facilitator on HAZOP
•Objectives of HAZOP In Process Safety
•Advantage and Disadvantages of HAZOP
•Application of HAZOP at Different Phases of Process Plants
•Introduction to HAZOP Methodology
•HAZOP Process Flowchart
•Understanding of Piping and Instrumentation Diagram
•Methods to Identify HAZOP Nodes
•Group Exercise: Identify HAZOP Nodes using P&ID
•Use of HAZOP Guidewords to Identify Process Deviation
•Common Causes of Deviations for Different Guidewords
•Determine Consequences Caused by Hazardous Events
•Identify Preventive and Mitigation Measures
•Proposing and Closing Out of Recommendations
•HAZOP Report Structure

Module 8
•HAZOP Workshop Preparation
•HAZOP Rules
•Difference Between HAZOP for Continuous Process with Batch Process
Start to conduct HAZOP with PSM Consultant using Guideword

Module 9
Team to continue to perform Nodes by their own under observation and coaching by PSM consultant
2 More Nodes will be conducted
Group Exercise
Case Study Mock HAZOP Session
Perform the balance of another 2 Nodes.
