Process Safety Excellence
Executive Lunch and Learn
Practical process safety discussions for leaders making decisions about risk, capital, and operations.
Your company may face significant process safety decisions without having a senior process safety specialist on staff. Where should you invest first? What can wait until a planned turnaround? How should you manage the risk in the meantime?
Bring those questions to the table.
I offer in-person executive lunch-and-learn sessions for small and midsize oil and gas companies. Each session combines focused discussion with questions and answers, drawing on more than four decades of industry experience.
A discussion built around your business
Choose a specific issue facing your company, bring a set of questions, or request a general discussion of process safety and risk management program development. These sessions are designed for executives, boards, and operational leaders who need to understand their options, establish priorities, and make informed decisions about how to use their resources.
For example: Fifty process heaters need safety upgrades. Where do you start?
I can help you develop a practical approach to funding, scheduling, and managing compliance while the work proceeds.
An executive discussion could explore:
Risk-based priorities: Developing a schedule that addresses the highest risks first.
Capital and outage planning: Coordinating the work with available funding, turnarounds, and planned outages.
Interim risk reduction: Considering measures such as improved operator training, revised procedures, alarms, and additional maintenance while permanent upgrades are pending.
Visibility and accountability: Making the risks, interim measures, and implementation schedule visible to leadership and affected employees.
Control of schedule changes: Establishing management-of-change requirements and senior-level approval for changes to the agreed schedule.
Bring your questions
Other discussions can focus on developing a process safety program, responding to audit or insurance-company concerns, or deciding where outside expertise would be most useful.
The purpose is to help your leadership team understand the issue, ask better questions, and identify practical next steps.
