14 Process Hazard Analysis – the Good, the Bad, the Ugly

Monday, March 27, 2017: 10:30 AM - 12:00 PM
214CD (Henry B. Gonzalez Convention Center)
Description:
Oftentimes following an incident, the dreaded question is asked, ‘was this considered in the Process Hazard Analysis (PHA)?’ If you happen to be a risk analyst tasked with facilitating PHAs, this is a question you quickly learn to dread. How do you consider every significant negative outcome? This session will focus on case histories involving hazards that went unidentified in the PHA as well as tools and methods to help ensure all significant hazards are identified and properly considered by the PHA team.
