Course Introduction
Technical Safety Management (TSM) is a structured approach to managing hazards and reducing risk in high-risk industries such as oil & gas, petrochemicals, mining, and energy. This 5-day course offers in-depth coverage of technical safety principles, process hazard analysis, engineering controls, and compliance with international safety standards. Participants will gain critical insight into how to build, implement, and continuously improve a robust Technical Safety Management System that aligns with operational excellence and corporate governance.
Course Objectives
Upon successful completion of this course, participants will be able to:
- Understand the fundamentals of Technical Safety and its role in risk reduction
- Apply tools such as HAZOP, LOPA, SIL, QRA, and Bow-Tie Analysis
