Safely extend the life of ageing assets

Managing Ageing Assets

Creeping Changes, Data Trending and
Experience from Incidents

 

The safe management of ageing assets is becoming an increasingly important issue as the UK's industrial base ages. This has been highlighted by HSE's inspection programmes of ageing plant both onshore and offshore.

 

The ability to assess and manage risks related risks can extend the life of ageing assets and enable investment in necessary repairs or replacement to be prioritised. Ultimately, the correct management of ageing assets helps to protect worker and sustain profitability.

 

HSE is to run a 1 day course on 'Managing Ageing Assets – Creeping Changes, Data Trending and Experience from Incidents'.
This will take place on Thursday 11 April 2019 at HSE's laboratory near Buxton, Derbyshire.

 

This course addresses managing ageing assets in the high hazard industries, and any other industry that relies on equipment or technology. 
It will focus on three broad areas related to managing ageing plant:

  • identification of creeping changes
  • management and trending of data and
  • lessons learned from HSE's investigation of ageing plant incidents.

Aimed at safety professionals, engineers and managers who are responsible for managing ageing assets on their site, the course will cover how to identify creeping changes using a HAZID methodology that has been developed by HSE and will be published as guidance by the Energy Institute.

If you're unable to make the April date, this course will be run again in June and October 2019.

 


 

LOPA training from HSE

Learn the Practical Application
and Pitfalls of LOPA

Layers of Protection Analysis (LOPA) is a risk assessment method  to determine and demonstrate the ability of safeguards to protect against identified hazard scenarios and to meet predetermined risk based criteria.

 

HSE is to run a 2 day course:
'Layers of Protection Analysis: Practical Application and Pitfalls (LOPA)' at its laboratory near Buxton, Derbyshire on 19-20 March 2019.

 

It will be presented by Dr Colin Chambers CEng MIET, a member of the Process Safety Leadership Group (PSLG) that developed the PSLG LOPA guidance. Dr Chambers was part of the CA team charged with assessing post-Buncefield LOPA studies.

 

This course will draw on the PSLG LOPA guidance, explain its relevance to LOPA assessment in general, and highlight pitfalls identified during the assessment of a large number of LOPA studies from the petrochemical industry.

 

'LOPA: Practical Applications and Pitfalls' is aimed at engineers, managers and safety professionals who have a basic knowledge of risk assessment who want to gain an understanding of the LOPA method, its application and the pitfalls commonly associated with this type of analysis.

Stress: From Intervention to Prevention

Stress: from Intervention to Prevention

Improve Your Approach to Tackling Work-related Stress


Work-related stress accounts for 57% of all working days lost due to ill health (equivalent to 15.4 million days lost to stress).

 

Is your organisation doing enough to tackle work-related stress and mental ill health?

 

Join us for a one-day event, at which you'll reflect upon, re-evaluate and refine your current approach to workplace stress management.

 


This event focuses on putting in place preventive measures that avoid harm. It will demonstrate the importance of a holistic approach that can include support initiatives such as mental health first aid, mindfulness and resilience training.

 

Tackling workplace stress is an important business topic and many forward-thinking organisations are benefiting from incorporating the topic within their wellbeing initiatives, helping to raise awareness of the issues, break down stigma and protect their people.
