CONTENT SUMMARY

INTRODUCTION

Fire and explosion are very destructive and catastrophic in nature and it is a fact that its occurrence is often unpredictable. Fire and explosion in petroleum facilities especially can lead to significant losses including life, financial, property and subsequently damaging the environment which will lead to catastrophic consequences. These accidents not only destroy facilities, but also it may hit nearby facilities with certain physical effects (e.g. heat radiation or blast wave), and sometimes even cause so-called domino effect (accident escalation), which can obviously extend  the severity of the accident. One of the ways that can reduce fire and explosion incidents and save people’s lives is by providing knowledge and developing good understanding on the behavior of fires and smoke, the behavior of people exposed to fires, determine its risk, and predict equipment failure probability that change with time and leads to fire or explosion, developing correct evacuation plan and designing and maintaining facilities that can be safe during fire incidents, as well as designing and selecting appropriate fire protection systems. This course will provide extensive information on the above and will be delivered by academic and industry experts in fire and explosion safety and protection engineering.

This course is aimed to enhance participants’ knowledge on fundamental theory of fires and explosion and fire hazard analysis as well as practical implementation of fire and explosion safety. The course also covers topics on failure probability and dynamic risk assessment due to fire and explosion, protection and prevention strategies. The installation, inspection, testing and maintenance of fire and explosion protections will also be discussed.


COURSE CONTENT
  • Fire and explosion dynamics, behavior, and its consequences on human, and evacuation fundamentals.
  • Special topics; fire and explosion escalation and domino effect, and fire liquid boil over
  • Fire and explosion effect on plant and building structure and structure failure probability
  • Failure probability that causes fire and explosion, and fire protection system reliability
  • Dynamic risk, quantitative risk, and risk management due to fire and explosion
  • Fire and Blast Explosion Damaged Assessment on Safety-Critical Equipment and post incident investigation
  • Fire and explosion response options
  • Fire and explosion safety design using risk based approach


OBJECTIVES

Upon completion of this course, participants will be able to:

  • Understanding fire and explosion dynamics, behavior, causes, spread and evacuation fundamentals.
  • Understanding unexpected fire and explosion behavior such as liquid boil over and domino effect.
  • Perform structure fire safety analysis and understand the impact of fire on plant structure.
  •  Perform risk assessment in Fire and explosion safety Engineering, including dynamic risk assessment.
  • Perform fire protection and detection system’s reliability and failure analysis.
  • Understanding fire and explosion incidents investigation steps.
  • Understanding fire and explosion safety design and response options
