Understanding Major Accident Hazards

ESR Technology has a long track-record, built up over many years, in delivering its Major Hazard Risk Assessment training programme throughout the Energy Industry and to its Regulators.  From this we have developed a series of free web based introductory modules to deliver an understanding of:

• Hazard Identification – what are the hazards, can they be eliminated?
• Scenario Definition – how might a hazardous event develop, how do we prevent it?
• Consequence Analysis – if the event happens, how bad will it be, who or what will it harm?
• Frequency Determination – how often is an event likely to happen, can we tolerate it?

The above modules provide a high-level overview of the content within ESR Technology’s comprehensive Major Hazard Risk Assessment training programme.  The detailed training course is accessible to delegates on a module-by-module or whole course basis.  Training is delivered by our experienced consultants in a way to suit you and can be tailored to accommodate any specific requirements of Companies and the delegates.
