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 URL:https://www.opuskinetic.com/training/safety-case-review/ LOCATION:Singapore\, Singapore CATEGORIES:Oil/Gas/Petrochemicals GEO:1.352083;103.819836 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20160718 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20160719 DTSTAMP:20260406T192455 CREATED:20170621T020512Z LAST-MODIFIED:20170621T020512Z UID:10000038-1468800000-1468886399@www.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.

Governments and regulatory bodies are the main actors in setting such levels of the first type in public private partnerships; the current shareholder interests drive the second. Many companies are involved with ISO 5500 Asset management programmes. \nReliability Engineering (RE)\, a sub-branch of Operational Research\, then is advocated to be an appropriate tool. However\, experience shows that the mathematical background of RE in many cases fails to recognise practical situations\, assuming information and operational conditions to be known to such extent that precise\, in-depth analysis is possible. Practical engineers\, generally being risk-aversive\, thus have an easy excuse of shying away from such “advanced scientific techniques” \, relying more on technical insight\, in many cases “gut feeling”. However\, the RE framework\, if properly used\, has proved to be an effective tool in decision support. \nThis workshop aims at such decision makers in the petrochemical area. It will provide the attendants with a substantiated opinion on system characteristics and analysis\, balancing technical insight with theoretical analysis. \nTraining methodology\nThe training will be given as a workshop with formal lectures and interactive exercises. Ample opportunities for discussion and experience sharing will be provided. Practical problems from attendants fit for discussion in class are welcomed. \nWho Should Attend\nThis workshop is designed to be beneficial to all individuals who are involved in maintenance in the oil and gas and petrochemical industry. Job titles include but are not limited to \n\nMaintenance Engineers/Supervisors/Managers\nOperations Engineers/Supervisors/Managers\nProduction Engineers/Supervisors/Managers\nProject Engineers/Supervisors/Managers\nLogistics co-ordinators\nPlanners\nPlant Manager/ Asset Manager\n\nBenefits of Attending\n\nTransform the vision of your organisation from maintenance support to Asset Management\nDeal with decisions requiring a proper understanding of chance and risk\nAnalyse system configurations in terms of potential production in relation with reliability and maintenance characteristics\nTo select and apply appropriate Reliability and Maintenance engineering methods (FMECA\, RBD\, FTA\, RCM\, RBM\, CBM) given available information\nSelect and store field information to steer and secure this management process\nUnderstand the methods that contribute to asset performance\, and that interact with and support each other\n\n  \nEndorsed By: URL:https://www.opuskinetic.com/training/risk-and-reliability-engineering-for-oil-and-gas-and-petrochemicals/ LOCATION:Indonesia\, Indonesia CATEGORIES:Oil/Gas/Petrochemicals GEO:-0.789275;113.921327 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20160926 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20160927 DTSTAMP:20260406T192455 CREATED:20170623T042019Z LAST-MODIFIED:20170623T042019Z UID:10000116-1474848000-1474934399@www.opuskinetic.com SUMMARY:Steam and Gas Turbines – Design\, Selection\, Operation and Maintenance DESCRIPTION:Overview\nThe aim is to provide a satisfactory approach to the problems posed by turbines and the means to solve them.
