Objectives
The course will provide expert advice aimed at reducing the potential hazards and either
removing risks or minimizing the potential consequences in the event of an incident.
It will develop provide a practical guideline for the evaluation and general design of
operations used for the safe and effective storage and handling of chemicals.
It will cover a range of industrial scenarios. These practical case studies and exercises will
provide the participants with the necessary knowledge and guides for right and safe
handling of chemicals in petroleum sites.
