Learn about all aspects of gas explosion hazardsGas Explosion Hazards on Offshore and Onshore Facilities 24–25 September 2013, Grimsby, UK26–27 September 2013, London, UK

This essential course addresses all aspects of hazards associated with vapour cloud explosions (VCEs): ignition processes, release and dispersion, explosion mechanisms, blast loads and modeling of all these aspects.

Objectives

At the end of the course, delegates should achieve the following key learning outcomes:

■■ understand the basics and important parameters governing vapour cloud explosions (VCEs)

■■ be aware of offshore release and accident statistics and some important offshore accidents

■■ understand the accident chain of events and the important parameters affecting the gas release and dispersion

■■ understand the various preventive measures to reduce the occurrence of accidents and the various mitigation and control techniques to reduce gas explosion consequences

■■ learn the various explosion modelling techniques that may be applied and understand the importance of using advance 3D modelling for gas explosion analyses

■■ learn the various gas explosion analyses methodologies and when they may be applied

■■ understand how gas explosion loads can be integrated with the responses of structures

Who will benefit

■■ safety engineers

■■ managers

■■ supervisors

■■ personnel involved in the design, operation or modification of an offshore oil and gas facility (platforms, FPSOs, etc)

■■ accident investigators

■■ anyone who would like to develop an understanding of gas explosion safety
