Barrier Management Using PHA-Pro

During a risk assessment exercise like process hazard analysis (PHA), a number of alarms, process controls and automated shutdown systems as well as emergency response plan are listed as barriers that prevent or mitigate an undesired outcome. How these barriers are maintained, inspected and tested becomes key to operating a facility in a safe manner.

PHA Pro can help you to categorize your barriers or safeguards used in PHA and generate safety critical elements list and can also help you to effectively manage your preventive maintenance and/or risk-based inspection programs.

This webinar will cover:

  • A walk-through of the HAZOP template
  • How to create a master list of safeguards
  • How to count safeguards by category
  • How to merge duplicate safeguards or action items and use filters for action items.
