Overview

As it was once said, “The control room of a Process Plant is hours or days of boring places as processes are running smoothly which is now and then punctuated by moments of terrifying nightmare in an instant, due to alarm(s) sounding”.

In this 2-days workshop, delegates will be taught on how to tackle the problem with ‘false positive’ alarms which could over time, tire out the operators or persons involved and thus becoming a risk. Refresher topics on an overview of alarm and its context in the process plants will be introduced firstly followed by class exercises on what makes a good alarm practices and to understand how adding an alarm will instead make the tank for likely to overflow.

There on, Alan will be touching on the heart of alarm management, the troubles, and on how to tackle the issues by guiding the delegates on how to think and come out with proper Alarm Management solutions. These topics will be the heart of this 2-days workshop and Alan will proceed by discussing on how to implement the identified good alarm management solutions in your process plants.

This workshop is ladened with class exercises to help delegates to understand and grasp the topics and by the end of the

Key Learning Objectives

This course is aimed at anyone involved with managing alarms at any chemical or processing plant at operator, supervisor, engineer or management levels. Numerous plants are experiencing excessive alarms all the time, which defeats their purpose as effective safety mechanisms. This is a well-known problem that is being pursued by regulators worldwide. Many standards and documents are available that describe what must be done, but not how to do it. This course is designed to discuss how to tackle the problem and thereby transition to a well-managed plant.

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.
