This paper provides concise and structured documentation to be used as a “guideline” when conducting Hazard & Operability (HAZOP) studies. It collects and summarizes key tables, figures, and checklists placed in chronological order according to the sequential phases that define the HAZOP Management System (HMS). These strategic illustrations, as well as their layout provide the key “ready-to-use” tools able to maximize the effectiveness of a HAZOP study.
A component of the ioMosaic Process Safety Office® Suite is used for maximizing the HAZOP effectiveness performance and minimizing time and efforts. This component is called PSMPro™, and it is intended to perform Process Hazard Analysis (PHA), Layer of Protection Analysis (LOPA), as well as Audits and Fault Tree Analysis.
This paper illustrates the key tools (tables, figures and checklists) “ready-to use” for project managers and team leaders for conducting Hazard & Operability (HAZOP) studies in the process industry [1].
