SUMMARY:Safety Case Review
DESCRIPTION:Overview\nThe Singapore Ministry of Manpower (MoM) plans to introduce a Safety Case regime for high hazard plants in the Process Industry\, using a similar approach to the European Union ‘Seveso’ Directive which has been enacted in the UK as the ‘Control of Major Accident Hazard’ (COMAH) Regulations. This legislation places a high demand on those operating hazardous plants to demonstrate that they have taken ‘all reasonable measures’ to prevent major accidents and limit their consequences. \nFor sites holding an inventory of dangerous substances above certain thresholds for flammability\, toxicity or eco-toxicity\, a key requirement is to write a Safety Case. This document presents a demonstration that all Major Accident Hazards have been identified\, and that suitable risk controls have been implemented which provide protection throughout the lifecycle of the plant. There needs to be robust management arrangements to support the required level of protection\, covering key elements of a Process Safety Management system. \nPreparation of Safety Cases in the UK follows detailed guidance from the UK Health & Safety Executive (HSE)\, which gives key criteria for information to be included in the Safety Case. This requires prescribed information and demonstrations under the headings; Descriptive Aspects\, Predictive Aspects\, Management System\, Technical Measures\, Environmental Aspects and Emergency Planning. This course will provide practical guidance on providing this data to a suitable level of detail\, outlining the need for a multi-disciplinary team and detailed project programme with key milestones. \nA key requirement for Safety Cases is to identify potential Major Accidents and conduct a proportionate risk assessment to demonstrate that ‘all measures necessary’ have been applied. This aspect is fundamental to all the other demonstrations in the Safety Case\, and has resulted in many being rejected by the HSE during the assessment phase. This course will provide a detailed approach for identifying major accidents\, developing a ‘representative set’ of scenarios for the site\, and carrying out a proportionate and quantified risk assessment for these scenarios. The objective is to show that ‘relevant good practice’ has been applied in order to reduce risks to ‘as low as reasonably practicable’ (ALARP). \nThe course will be interactive\, allowing delegates to raise concerns and share experiences. A number of case studies\, videos and exercises will be used to improve the learning experience and reinforce messages from the modules. All delegates will be issued with course materials\, related papers and references for further reading on the topic of Safety Case preparation. \nWho Should Attend\nThis course has been designed for people likely to be affected by the new Safety Case regime. It will provide a greater understanding for Senior Managers\, Process Safety Professionals and Senior Engineers in the detailed requirements for preparing Safety Cases and the resources and timescales likely to be required. \n\nKey Learning Objectives\n\nGain awareness of the Safety Case regime planned for Singapore\nUnderstand what needs to be included in a Safety Case\nHave insight on a practical approach for identifying and assessing Major Accident Hazards\nUnderstand the significant time and resource requirement to write a Safety Case\nBe an intelligent buyer of specialist support for aspects of the Safety Case\nImprove awareness of best practice based on the stringent requirements of the UK HSE\n\nEndorsed By: \n  \n \nFor further information of this course\, please email to info@opuskinetic.com

SUMMARY:Offshore Asset Life Extension
DESCRIPTION:Overview\nAging offshore assets are becoming an increasingly common problem and with the majority of oil rigs and platforms in the region nearing the end of their design life\, the problem needs immediate attention. In the current economic climate it is imperative for operators to extend the life of their offshore assets and to do this without compromising on integrity\, reliability\, productivity or safety. \nThis event is specially designed to address and discuss the challenges of increased running costs and decreased reliability posed by aging assets. With a specific focus on strategies and technologies available to extend asset life\, attending will give you the knowledge of how to cut operating costs\, boost production and ensure profitability while extending the life of aging offshore assets. \n\nKey Learning Points Include:\n\nExtending the life of your assets by improving their technical and structural integrity and reliability\nImproving the accountability of assets through optimal monitoring and asset management procedures\nDeveloping an effective asset integrity management plan\nEffective use of data management for optimal offshore integrity\nReducing costs and time set-backs of aging assets through effective asset management strategies\nLatest inspection techniques and effective maintenance strategies\n\nEndorsed by: \n  \n    \n    \n     \n      \nFor further information of this course\, please email to info@opuskinetic.com

SUMMARY:ASME B31.3 & API 570 Piping Design and Inspection
DESCRIPTION:Overview\nThis course is composed of two sections. The first section discusses the design requirements for process plant piping systems. The second section discusses the maintenance requirements for these systems. In each case\, the course goes beyond merely repeating the material contained in the governing standards and discusses practical applications and typical procedures. The course also contains sample problems that are worked together and written exercises that are completed by the participants. \n  \nWho Should Attend\nThis course is directed to engineers who are responsible for the mechanical design and maintenance of process plant pressure piping systems to ASME B31.3 and API 570. \nUpon completion of this course\, participants will be able to apply the design requirements of ASME B31.3 and the maintenance requirements of API-570 to process plant piping systems. They will also be able to perform engineering audits of designs and procedures that have been developed by others. \n  \nWhy You Should Attend\nThe course emphasis is on developing a practical understanding of the mechanical design of pressure piping systems in process plant applications. Sample problems and participant exercises are included throughout the course to illustrate the concepts discussed and provide the attendees with practice in applying them. \n\nKey Learning Points\n\nOverview of Piping Codes\nPipe Manufacturing Processes and Material Selection\nPressure Design of Pipe and Piping System Components\nPiping System Layout\, Supports\, and Restraints\nPiping Flexibility & Valve Selection\nPiping Vibration\, Fabrication\, Erection\, Examination\, and Testing\nPiping Materials and Modes of Failure\nPiping Inspection and Evaluation\nPiping-System Repair\, Alteration\, Rerating\, and Pressure Testing\nFlange Joint Assembly and Bolt Up Procedures\nGuidelines for Hot Tapping (Pressure Tapping)\n\n  \nEndorsed by: \n     \n   \n   \n    \n\n  \nFor further information of this course\, please email to info@opuskinetic.com
