Training in Process Safeguarding (Safety in Process Design) covers a wide range of subjects with many applications in hydrocarbons and chemical processing. As the name suggests it addresses the process engineering and safeguarding aspects of processing equipment/units. The process design safety orientation of the participation results in safe process designs. Suitable for: This training is ideal for HSE engineers, process engineers, mechanical and piping engineers, instrumentation and automation engineers, project engineers and managers, operations and maintenance engineers.
