Recorded Webinars: Getting Credible Failure Data for SIF Design Verification
Functional Safety standards have established an ingenious, systematic method for management of risk. This method does not provide prescriptive designs for safety functions but instead establishes performance targets based on risk reduction need. Safety function designers are free to provide optimal designs. But must then show that these designs meet the performance targets based on justification and quantitative analysis. This webinar explains those tasks, then focuses on the most important target, the PFDavg calculation. Credible failure rate data is needed for that task and it will be shown that not all data is credible.

Blog Entry: The Cuckoo’s Egg & How it Relates to Cybersecurity
Let me be the first to say that I don’t normally do book reviews. Frankly, I thought I left them behind years ago when they were required assignments for my undergraduate classes. Nevertheless, I find myself writing one today, not because I must, but because there are so many cybersecurity…
Recorded Webinars: The Need to Measure SIS Performance
The webinar addresses the value and importance of measuring the performance of Safety Instrumented Systems (SIS) because many companies do not seem to understand and/or appreciate the value in conducting these assessments (FSA 4).
The webinar emphasizes the fact that IEC61511 is a performance-based standard and therefore, as such, there is a need to be able to measure SIS performance. This webinar follows on from a previous webinar on the importance of conducting Functional Safety Assessments and the specific requirement from IEC61511 to conduct FSA 4; it focuses on this requirement and the practical benefits that can be gained from performing this assessment.
What you will learn?
- What are the key benefits
- Who should be involved
- The need to identify key Performance Indicators to measure
- Where the KPIs can come from
Who should attend?
- PSM personnel
- Operations and maintenance personnel
- Plant Managers and Supervisors
Blog Entry: Why Data Science Knowledge is Required in Alarm Management
The alarm system is a daily encounter for most operations across different industries. For oil and gas, the alarm system alerts and reminds the operation to take action(s) to revert the process back to the normal operating range. For pharmaceuticals and batch operations, the alarm system can be used to…
