The Amsterdam Process Safety Seminar Series - Extra Seminar

02/03/2010 - 03/03/2010
One year after the Buncefield Investigation Board issued its final report and four years after the Buncefield accident, the Process Safety Leader Group issued its final report: 11.12.2009. The lessons learned in this report go beyond the site safety at fuel storage sites. It contains recommendations valid for those sites, but also very useful for chemical plants. This is an early opportunity to hear first hand the lessons learned from the participants of this Process Safety Leader Group and other persons directly involved in the Buncefield accident and its investigation. This seminar is a great learning opportunity!

Reasons to attend

- Learn first hand the latest lessons learned from key members of the Process Safety Leader Group
- Review the lessons learned based on the final report of the Buncefield Investigation Board
- Learn what are the practical consequences for fuel terminal management
- Learn the latest insights about the explosion mechanism, to be able to review: can this happen to us?
- Human Factors: what are reasonable assumptions for human intervention, what not?
- Instrumented systems: how reliable are they? How can they fail? How to ensure reliability? How to ensure Safety Integrity Level (SIL)?
- The Emergency Response to the Buncefield accident
- Lessons Learned: how can we improve on management of operations and people?
- Layer Of Protection Analysis (LOPA), how can it be applied to fuel storages, chemical plants and other types of operations?
- How can the Lessons Learned from Buncefield be applied to my operations?
- Learn about the effect of Buncefield on UK Land Use Planning

During the event there will ample opportunity for debate and feedback during the breaks, workshops and panel discussions.
