What you will be able to do.

Process, safety, project and operations engineers who run or take part in hazard identification at concept, FEED, MOC and operations stages

Not every question deserves a HAZOP. HAZID at concept stage, What-If reviews for changes and checklists for start-up and routine tasks each find hazards a guideword study would miss or reach too late. The course covers when each technique is the right choice, how to structure and facilitate it, how to record the result so it links to the later HAZOP, and how to keep a checklist from becoming a tick-box exercise.

  • Choose the hazard-identification technique that suits the lifecycle stage and the decision being made
  • Plan and run a HAZID with a hazard/guideword register suited to the facility
  • Facilitate a structured What-If review for a change or a non-standard operation
  • Build and maintain checklists that ask about the site's real hazards
  • Record results in a register that feeds the HAZOP, the risk register and MOC
  • Judge when a lighter study has found something that needs a full HAZOP or a consequence model
