... be in place to minimise the consequences. This system of barriers and recovery measures is shown as a bow-tie, a model which visually represents a system where process safety hazards are managed through prevention and response barriers. Abstract Process safety management aims to ensure that all physical...

... Abstract Process safety management in Shell aims to ensure that all our physical assets from drilling rigs, offshore platforms, manufacturing and processing facilities, to fuel retail stations are well designed, safely operated and properly maintained. Shell has been focusing on process safety...

... and implementation of safety cases can provide an opportunity for businesses to engage a wider ‘audience’ in key aspects of effective Process Safety Management using, for example, bowties to provide a unifying theme throughout the safety case and supporting implementation. An example is provided where the safety...

... such as the ASME (American Society of Mechanical Engineers). Process Safety Management (PSM) Process Safety Management (PSM) refers to a set of inter-related approaches to manage hazards associated with the process industries and is intended to reduce the frequency and severity of incidents resulting from...

...Background Process safety management (PSM) attempts to prevent major accidents involving large volumes, multiple injuries and significant damage. Laboratory research focuses on small experiments, typically followed by scaling up to bench scale demonstrations, and the successful projects...

... Abstract Description Embedding Process Safety Management (PSM) in a capital project system is critical in helping to achieve a safe start up and is the foundation for assuring safe operations throughout the life of the process. Application Today's PSM system, practiced by most...

... Abstract The U.S. Occupational Safety and Health Administration's (OSHA) process safety management (PSM) standard set requirements for the management of hazards associated with processes that uses highly hazardous chemicals (HHC) – e.g., chemicals that are toxic, reactive, flammable...

... disruption or interruption, thus achieving consistency throughout the whole project life cycle. Therefore an effective process safety management demands a holistic and systematic approach for improving operational and process safety throughout the whole project life cycle from design and construction...

.... <underline>Part 3. Focussing implementation effort on critical management systems</underline> Abstract The paper describes the findings from an implementation project of process safety management (PSM) in the MOL Group based in Hungary. The findings focus on some items that make process safety management...

... ABSTRACT Recent disasters in the petrochemical industry have indicated that more clearly defined process safety controls are needed. Process safety management (PSM) is not an overnight adjustment. It is a program designed to change the culture of how processes are managed over a long period...
