The purpose of this course is to describe the principles and procedures of Hazard and Operability (HAZOP) Studies. HAZOP is a structured and systematic technique for examining a defined system, with the objective of: Identifying potential hazards in the system. The hazards involved may include both those essentially relevant only to the immediate area of the system and those with a much wider sphere of influence, e.g. some environmental hazards; Identifying potential operability problems with the system and in particular identifying causes of operational disturbances and production deviations likely to lead to nonconforming products. An important benefit of HAZOP studies is that the resulting knowledge, obtained by identifying potential hazards and operability problems in a structured and systematic manner, is of great assistance in determining appropriate remedial measures. The course is designed using the tools and techniques identified by IEC 61882:2016. LEARNING OUTCOMES By the end of this course you will understand how to: prepare for a HAZOP study meeting and programme – including defining the scope of the study and choosing the team choose nodes (parts of the drawings or operation for HAZOP study) estimate the programme requirements for the successful completion of a study use facilitation techniques to motivate the team and keep them on task avoid common problems encountered during study meetings, including challenging behaviours formulate the HAZOP study report fulfil the team leader’s role in implementing recommendations and managing the process FOR WHOM Anyone with experience of the HAZOP technique who is required to lead HAZOP studies Process safety engineers, loss prevention specialists, production engineers, process design engineers, project engineers, process programmers and instrument control engineers Risk Managers COURSE CONTENT Introduction to HAZOPWhat is a HAZOP?What are Hazards and Risk?Limitations of HAZOPsEssential Features of HAZOP Principles of examination Design representation Design requirements and design intent Applications of HAZOP Relation to other analysis toolsFailure Mode Effect AnalysisAs Low As Reasonably Practicable (ALARP)Fail Tree AnalysisEvent Tree Analysis HAZOP study limitations Risk identification studies during different system life cycle stagesConcept stageDevelopment stageRealization stageUtilization stageEnhancement stageRetirement stage The HAZOP study procedure Initiate the study Define scope and objectives Define roles and responsibilities Preparation Plan the study Collect data and documentation Establish guide words and deviations Examination Structure the examination Guidewords and Deviations Causes, Consequences and Safeguards Perform the examination Risk Ranking Documentation and follow up Establish method of recording Output of the study Record information Sign off the documentation Follow-up and responsibilities Case Study and practical application TRAINING METHODOLOGIES Presentation Case Study Individual Exercises Group Exercises DURATION: 4 Days (Examination on day 4)
