Layers of Protection Analysis (LOPA) and Determination of SIL Requirements Training
Aim of the Training
In the training, participants are aimed to have knowledge about how to determine scenarios to be analyzed using Layers of Protection Analysis (LOPA) method, how to utilize conditional modifiers and enabling conditions in scenarios, equipment reliability data, and human error factors.
Who should attend
It is recommended for professionals who need to perform SIL (Safety Integrity Level) determination within the scope of Process Safety to attend the training.
Participation in the HAZOP Team Member Training is a prerequisite for this training.
