This two day course focuses on the fundamentals of facility siting studies (FSS), quantitative risk assessments (QRA) and mitigation techniques. The primary objectives are to provide a thorough foundation and knowledge of the inputs, methodologies and typical types of results for FSS and QRAs. It will also provide knowledge of how QRAs can be used to identify and prioritize risk mitigation strategies to make informed and effective risk mitigation decisions. This course is ideal for PSM managers, process safety engineers, facility siting coordinators / SMEs, and anyone involved in the facility siting decision making process.

The course will include the following elements:

  • FSS / QRA regulations and industry guidance
  • Hazard identification and hazard definition
  • Discharge and Dispersion Calculations
  • Occupant vulnerability (OV) determination
  • Building analysis
  • Outdoor area analysis
  • Congestion / Confinement theory and modelling
  • Explosion calculations
  • Risk analysis
  • Frequency analysis
  • Occupancy analysis
  • Overview of risk measures and criteria
  • Overview of consequence results
  • Risk results
    • Developing and evaluating risk refinements and mitigation options
    • Making risk-based decisions
    • Assessing risk for abnormal operations (turnaround, etc.)

Changes in Facility Siting Standards: API 752, 753, & 756

In industries where the daily risks of potentially catastrophic events, such as vapor cloud explosions, are a constant concern, there’s no room for compromise – inherently safer design principles, effective hazard identifications and analyses, and adherence to up-to-date industry standards aren’t just important, they’re essential. Since its establishment in 1919, the American Petroleum Institute (API)…
