Description
Process Systems Risk Management provides complete coverage of risk management concepts and applications for safe design
and operation of industrial and other process facilities. The whole life cycle of the process or product is taken into account, from
its conception to decommissioning.
The breadth of human factors in risk management is also treated, ranging from personnel and public
safety to environmental impact and business interruption. This unique approach to process risk management is firmly grounded in systems
engineering. Numerous examples are used to illustrate important concepts ?drawn from almost 40 years authors' experience in risk analysis,
assessment and management, with applications in both on- and off-shore operations.
This book is essential reading on the relevant techniques
to tackle risk management activities for small-, medium- and large-scale operations in the process industries. It is aimed at informing
a wide audience of industrial risk management practitioners, including plant managers, engineers, health professionals, town planners,
and administrators of regulatory agencies.
