High Integrity Systems and Safety Management in Hazardous Industries
Autor J.R Thomsonen Limba Engleză Paperback – 8 ian 2015
Selected case studies are used to show how the complex multidisciplinary enterprises to design and operate hazardous plant can sometimes fail. This includes the subtlety and fragility of the robust safety culture that is required.
It is aimed at professional engineers who design, build and operate these hazardous plants. This book is also written for business schools and university engineering departments where engineering management is studied.
- An overview of design standards and processes for high integrity systems
- An overview of safety management processes as applied to hazardous industries
- Best practices in design, operations, maintenance and regulation
