Safety Instrumented System (SIS) and Control

Background & About the Course
Process safety is a critical element in industries involving high-risk operations, such as oil and gas, petrochemicals, and manufacturing. A key component of process safety management is the Safety Instrumented System (SIS), which is designed to protect personnel, the environment, and assets from potential incidents that could lead to significant losses.
This training aims to provide an in-depth understanding of the design, implementation, and management of SIS in accordance with international standards such as IEC 61508 and IEC 61511. Participants will learn basic concepts, risk analysis, Layer of Protection Analysis (LOPA) management, and system testing to ensure the reliability and integrity of SIS in daily operations.
Course Objectives
- Expand practical knowledge in the design and application of Safety Instrumented Systems (SIS) in industrial processes.
- Understand the latest standards governing each stage of the safety life cycle, from initial hazard evaluation to detailed engineering and maintenance of SIS.
- Develop the ability to reduce risks and mitigate hazard consequences, and design, implement, operate, and maintain SIS to meet requirements.
- Assist companies in implementing functional safety measures that conform to international standards.
- Design, implement, and manage SIS while adhering to international standards such as IEC 61508 and IEC 61511.
