About the Course

The world has continued to witness many industrial disasters since the beginning of the industrial age. Many of them like the Piper Alpha Oil platform incident , the Buncefield fire or the Bhopal Gas tragedy have cost us dearly.  Hazard Identification and Risk Mitigation techniques have gained significant attention and impetus in the recent past on account of such catastrophic accidents.  Hazop study is a careful review of a process or operation in a systematic fashion to determine whether deviations from the design or operational intent can lead to undesirable consequence. And the objective of such a study is to identify the hazard and operability problems and to reduce the probability and consequences of an incident in the process facilities that would have a detrimental impact to the personnel, plant, properties and environment.
