Process Safety Engineering

Code compliant engineering — relief systems, flare studies, fire protection, HAC, SIS design, and alarm rationalisation.

Strategic context

Why process safety engineering matters

Process Safety Engineering converts hazard-study output into engineered protection. Relief and flare systems, fire and explosion protection, firewater hydraulics, hazardous area classification, safety instrumented systems, emergency shutdown architectures, alarm rationalisation, loss prevention engineering, and safety barrier management — each delivered to API, ASME, NFPA, IEC, PESO, and OISD code with construction-ready documentation. Our work translates FERA contours, QRA risk drivers, and SIL targets into specifications, drawings, and procurement packages an EPC can build without rework.

Process Safety Engineering
Engagement model

How we deliver

A phased, evidence-led delivery model — from discovery through close-out — built around your facility, regulatory context, and lifecycle stage.

Design Basis & Code Selection
FERA / QRA / SIL inputs reviewed; applicable code suite chosen (API / ASME / NFPA / IEC / OISD / PESO); regulatory mapping per jurisdiction.
Calculation & Sizing
Relief loads, flare radiation contours, firewater hydraulic model, HAC drawings, SIS / ESD logic, PFP scope envelope — all engineered to credible-worst-case.
Specification & Drawings
P&ID mark-up, equipment datasheets, system specifications, construction-ready drawing packages with constructability check.
Procurement & FAT Support
Technical bid evaluation, vendor document review, deviation MOC, FAT witness for safety-critical equipment.
SAT, Commissioning & PSSR
Site acceptance test, pre-startup safety review per OSHA PSM § (h), and handover documentation aligned with operations and maintenance teams.
