Oil and Gas and Process Industry Quantitative Risk Assessment (QRA)
Purpose
The purpose of this course is to enable students to understand and apply QRA techniques with particular relevance to the oil and gas and process industries. Participants will be given an opportunity to conduct QRA for oil and gas and process facilities. The course also covers risk criteria, application of the ALARP principle, sensitivity analysis and cost benefit analysis.
