Refinery Safety Management Systems (SMS)

This course provides in-depth knowledge and practical skills to design, implement, and manage Safety Management Systems (SMS) in refinery environments. It aligns with international safety standards and focuses on hazard identification, risk control, operational discipline, and continuous safety improvement.

By the end of this course, participants will be able to:
• Understand the components and structure of refinery safety management systems.
• Identify process hazards and apply risk assessment tools.
• Develop safety policies and standard operating procedures (SOPs).
• Implement performance monitoring and continuous improvement mechanisms.
• Ensure compliance with international safety regulations (e.g., OSHA, API RP 754).
