Course Overview :
To effectively assess emergency situations and evaluate safety, environmental and regulatory compliance issues, accurate drawings – and the ability to interpret them – are crucial. This combination of classroom instruction and workshop training exercises focuses on critical documentation essential to the safe day-to-day operation of facilities (e.g., P&ID, PFD, Plot Plan, Electrical Area Classification, Piping Drawing, Isometric Drawing, Line List, Tie-In List and Shutdown Keys).
Course Benefits :
- Accurate drawings and the ability to read and understand these drawings are a requirement for the analysis of emergency situations and the assessment of safety, environmental and regulatory compliance issues such as Process Hazards Analysis / HAZOP studies.
- This training course will show how facilities relate to the drawings so that participants can focus on improvements.
- It will also provide engineers dealing with Management of Change the ability to speak the same language as the operators of the facilities.
- It will form the foundation for base level learning and will provide consistent and improved communications between staff.
- It will provide improvement in quality and consistency which will enhance the other processes that rely on the P&ID drawings.
