This book provides a comprehensive treatment of investing chemical processing incidents. It presents on-the-job information, techniques, and examples that support successful investigations. Issues related to identification and classification of incidents (including near misses), notifications and initial response, assignment of an investigation team, preservation and control of an incident scene, collecting and documenting evidence, interviewing witnesses, determining what happened, identifying root causes, developing recommendations, effectively implementing recommendation, communicating investigation findings, and improving the investigation process are addressed in the third edition. While the focus of the book is investigating process safety incidents the methodologies, tools, and techniques described can also be applied when investigating other types of events such as reliability, quality, occupational health, and safety incidents.

Newest techniques for complex investigations based on actual plant and industry data. These Guidelines establish a basis for successful feedback through investigation of process incidents to determine the many causes and to implement changes which will prevent recurrence. It provides a clear definition of the role of incident investigation in overall process safety management, as well as guidelines, concepts, and options. Detailed investigation techniques and how to establish such a system are set out for plant staff, technical professionals, or middle level managers. Primary focus is on incidents with catastrophic potential but the concepts should also be used for investigating environmental incidents, minor injuries, less significant property damage events, or near misses. Also provides an overview of incident investigation principles as implemented by other industries worldwide. The annotated bibliography included makes this practical handbook an invaluable reference source. parag Partial contents : Basic Incident Investigation Techniques Practical Investigation Considerations Multiple Cause Determination Recommendations and Follow-through Formal Reports and Communications Issues Development and Implementation.

The process industry has developed integrated process safety management programs to reduce or eliminate incidents and major consequences, such as injury, loss of life, property damage, environmental harm, and business interruption. Good documentation practices are a crucial part of retaining past knowledge and experience, and avoiding relearning old lessons. Following an introduction, which offers examples of how proper documentation might have prevented major explosions and serious incidents, the 21 sections in this book clearly present aims, goals, and methodology in all areas of documentation. The text contains examples of dozens of needed forms, lists of relevant industry organizations, sources for software, references, OSHA regulations, sample plans, and more.
