Hydrogen Safety Assurance

This course discusses which practical tools and techniques can be used to allow hydrogen equipment and facility designers and developers to build a robust yet pragmatic safety assurance framework and apply this to demonstrate that they are reducing risk to As Low As Reasonably Practicable (ALARP).

It examines how tried and tested approaches can be adapted to suit the specific characteristics and challenges of hydrogen as an energy vector by highlighting both commonalities and differences between hydrogen and well-understood hydrocarbons.

Outline

  • Introduction to Hydrogen
  • Risk management for Hydrogen
  • Qualitative risk assessment for Hydrogen
  • Quantitative risk assessment for Hydrogen
  • Safety Management Planning

At the end of the course you should be able to:

  1. Have an understanding of the hydrogen hazard, its specific characteristics and challenges.
  2. Understand how established risk assessment tools and techniques can be applied to hydrogen schemes, with appreciation of the limitation of these techniques.
  3. Understand how to demonstrate that risks associated with hydrogen are managed to ALARP.

Who should attend?

Managers, engineers, operators, HSE advisors and risk management practitioners involved in hydrogen energy projects.

What prior study is recommended?
