Process Safety

Process Safety Engineering

A competency-focused week covering the breadth of process safety engineering at a level beyond awareness. It places the discipline within wider risk and safety management while concentrating on technical content. Examples come mainly from upstream and midstream oil and gas, though the principles apply across hydrocarbon processing.
