Introduction

Process Hazard Analysis (PHA) is a critical tool in identifying and managing risks in industrial operations, particularly in facilities that deal with hazardous materials, chemical processes, and complex equipment. This overview program, designed by Global Horizon Training Center, introduces participants to the principles, methodologies, and best practices of conducting PHAs to enhance plant safety and reliability.

Specifically tailored for Maintenance Department professionals, this training provides foundational and practical knowledge to help them actively participate in PHA studies, recognize process risks during maintenance activities, and contribute to hazard mitigation strategies. Understanding PHAs helps maintenance personnel work more safely and efficiently in high-risk environments while ensuring compliance with safety regulations and standards.

Objectives

By the end of the training, participants will be able to:

  • Understand the fundamentals and objectives of Process Hazard Analysis.

  • Identify common hazards in process and maintenance environments.

  • Participate effectively in PHA sessions using various techniques (HAZOP, What-If, FMEA, etc.).

  • Recognize the role of maintenance in managing and mitigating process hazards.

  • Interpret and apply recommendations from PHA studies.

  • Understand regulatory frameworks related to PHA (e.g., OSHA PSM, API, ISO standards).

Course Methodology

  • Lectures and Discussions with industry-specific examples

  • Workshops and Group Exercises using real-life maintenance-related scenarios

  • Video Demonstrations of actual process hazard situations and analysis procedures

  • Case Studies on past industrial incidents and lessons learned

  • Templates and Checklists to support PHA documentation and analysis

Organizational Impact

This training will help organizations:

  • Strengthen overall process safety culture and awareness in maintenance teams.

  • Improve participation and quality of PHA sessions by integrating field knowledge.

  • Reduce incidents and near misses caused by maintenance-related hazards.

  • Ensure compliance with regulatory requirements related to hazard analysis.

  • Enhance the preventive and predictive maintenance strategies with a risk-based mindset.

Target Audience

  • Maintenance Engineers and Technicians

  • Maintenance Planners and Supervisors

  • Reliability Engineers

  • Operations and Process Engineers who interact with maintenance

  • HSE and Risk Management Personnel
