Key Learning Objectives

This advanced HAZOP training course is aimed at new and experienced team leaders who wish to develop their HAZOP and PHA skills further. It focuses on those topics about which very little guidance is freely available, including both soft (facilitation) aspects and technical subjects. Participants will leave the course with a greatly improved understanding of the modern HAZOP technique and numerous suggestions for how they can improve their HAZOP and PHA studies. The course is intended to be an open course using generic (non-proprietary) examples and case studies, but can be adapted with site specific case studies if available.
