Balancing
safety and production goals can be a tenuous, delicate and complex act.
It is undeniable that safety and production are compatible. It is indisputable that investments in safety yield long-term benefits.
However, these benefits are not as obvious nor do they produce the
rapid results associated with production investments, which generally
have a high certainty of providing a measurable, positive effect within
a short time frame.
This
book addresses the good engineering practices applicable to preventing
process safety incidents and achieving desired process reliability.
Balancing safety and reliability requires more than a calculation; it
demands a management system, which ensures a high level of quality in
the design and management of the instrumentation and controls. With
recommended work processes, metrics, and detailed discussion of key
management system elements, internal practices can be benchmarked to
determine if you are following the latest in good engineering practice.
