Course Description Learn to Choose the Most Appropriate Hazard and Accident Analysis Techniques In this course you will learn techniques for qualitatively identifying and assessing the hazards associated with process systems. You will quickly learn to choose the most appropriate technique for a given problem. Your organization can use these methods to conduct the rigorous hazards identification, hazards analyses, and accident analyses that are required for DOE authorization basis documents (e.g., SAR, BIO). Comply with DOE Hazard and Accident Analysis Requirements Applying these techniques will help ensure compliance with Nuclear Safety Management (10 CFR Part 830), Nuclear Safety Analysis Reports (5480.23), Facility Safety (DOE O 420.1), Preparation Guide for U.S. Department of Energy Nonreactor Nuclear Facility Safety Analysis Reports (DOE-STD-3009-94), Hazard Categorization and Accident Analysis Techniques for Compliance with DOE Order 5480.23, Nuclear Safety Analysis Reports (DOE-STD-1027-92), and Guidance for Preparation of DOE 5480.22 (TSR) and DOE 5480.23 (SAR) Implementation Plans (DOE-STD-3011-94). Study These Essential Analysis Techniques Hazard and operability (HAZOP) analysis Checklist analysis What-if analysis Failure modes and effects analysis (FMEA) Fault tree analysis Event tree analysis Practice the Techniques in Several Workshops After reviewing each technique, you will have the chance to practice it in several workshops presented throughout the week. Through these workshops you will increase your familiarity with the techniques so that you can begin applying them when you return to your facility. Five Reasons for You to Attend You must perform hazard and accident analyses to comply with DOE regulations This is the course for mastering basic hazard evaluation and accident analysis techniques, taught by an instructor with more than 12 years of experience in conducting DOE safety analyses The techniques taught in this course are those published in Guidelines for Hazard Evaluation Procedures, Second Edition with Worked Examples, which is referenced in DOE regulations and was written by ABS Consulting personnel Different processes are best analyzed using different techniques – you will learn which ones to use for your job(s) Efficient application of analysis techniques requires a skilled leader who knows how to scope a project, thoroughly prepare for it, efficiently lead it, and properly document it How You Will Benefit You can immediately begin to use what you have learned in the course to help select and apply the most appropriate hazard evaluation technique in a given situation You will be able to lead studies using the what-if/checklist and FMEA techniques and to participate in HAZOP, fault tree, and event tree analyses You will gain a basic understanding of hazard evaluations, which is the first step to certification as a Quantitative Risk Analyst You will come away from the course with these valuable materials: A copy of the comprehensive course notes and solutions to the example problems A copy of the AIChE/ASME 461-page publication Guidelines for Hazard Evaluation Procedures, Second Edition with Worked Examples A certificate of completion Accreditation: 2.6 CEUs, 2.6 COCs, 4.34 CMs, ABIH approval #10-227 For more information on this course, contact Customer Service at 1-800-769-1199.       Code Start/End Dates Location 27126 Sep 20-23, 2010 ABS Consulting | Knoxville, TN Location/Hotel Information For more information on this course, contact Customer Service at 1-800-769-1199.
