We are delighted to announce that two technical papers from ESR Technology have been accepted for presentation at this year’s IChemE Hazards 35 Process Safety Conference, a significant event in the process safety calendar.
This annual conference brings together industry professionals, academics, and safety experts to explore developments, challenges, and best practices in the field of process safety, particularly for high-hazard industries such as oil and gas, chemicals, and energy.
Congratulations to Our Contributors
Our Safety and Risk Management team will be contributing to the conversation with two insightful papers, showcasing ESR Technology’s commitment to advancing knowledge and improving safety outcomes in complex industrial environments:
- Andy Benton will present:
“Risk Assessment for Proposed CO₂ Injection Platform”
This paper delves into the risk assessment process for a gas platform being modified for the injection of carbon dioxide as part of a carbon capture and storage (CCS) initiative. The work explores the challenges posed by high-pressure CO₂ systems and outlines strategies for assessing, quantifying, and mitigating risks during the early stages of project design. - Gemma Tickle and Neil Ketchell will present:
“Consideration of the Effects of Dry Ice on the Cooling of Steel Structures When Impacted by Two-phase Jets of Carbon Dioxide”
Their research examines the cooling effects caused by dry ice formation when two-phase CO₂ jets impact steel structures. This has important implications for structural integrity during accidental releases in pressurised CO₂ systems.
Both papers reflect our ongoing commitment to supporting the safe deployment of emerging technologies such as CCS and highlight ESR Technology’s expertise in tackling complex process safety challenges.
Join Us at Hazards 35
Hazards 35 takes place 4–6 November 2025 in Birmingham, UK, and promises a packed programme of talks, case studies, and expert panels focused on process safety management, regulation, and innovation.
