FeesThe fees for each of the module is RM1,500 (RM One Thousand Five Hundred Only). The fee is inclusive of training material and meals. Payment can be made to Bendahari UTM.

Entry RequirementsThere is no entry requirement to attend this course. However, a good com-mand of English is strongly recommended as all teaching material is in English.

Certificate AwardCertificate of Participation will be awarded to all participants who have com-pleted each of the module and passed the assessment. All assessments will be in the forms of assignment and case study and there is no examination. Professional Certificate in Oil and Gas Safety Operations will be awarded to candidates who have successfully completed all five modules by Razak School of Engineering and Advanced Technology, Universiti Teknologi Malaysia.

Course Structure and SummaryThis program consists of five modules and each module will take two days during the weekends. All modules will be held from 08:30 to 17:00. Candi-dates can choose to attend the modules in any sequence since there is no pre-requisite for all modules. Meals and course material are inclusive in the program fees. Participants are also encouraged to consult the trainers for any OSH matters pertaining to their workplace.

VenueAll modules will be conducted at Level 14 or Level 15, Menara Razak or BATC Building, UTM Jalan Semarak, Kuala Lumpur.

The objective of this program is to train and expose safety professionals to oil and gas safety operations for both up-stream as well as down-stream operations. This program provides basic and fundamental knowledge in oil and gas safety operations currently practice in indus-tries. The basic exposure is important to ensure that safety profession-als are familiar with all the processes and hazards associated with it. This is a ten-day intensive program intended for safety personnel newly joining or wishing to work in the oil and gas (O&G) industry. There are five modules and each module will take two days.

The training will provide knowledge in occupational safety and health (OSH) in the O&G industry to assist safety professionals to carry out their tasks effectively. The O&G industry is an extremely high risk work-ing environment where any small mishap could lead to major disaster where there could be tragic loss to human life and loss of properties as well as extensive damage to the environment. Safety personnel must have a good grasp of the techniques and methods used in managing OSH issues to meet regulatory requirements, industry standards and dealing with various relevant parties. Examples of major hazard accidents in Malaysia are Tiram Kimia fire and explosion in Port Klang (1986), Shell MDS explosion in Bintulu (1997), fire at naphta storage tank in Tanjung Langsat (2008), Petronas storage tank fire in Pasir Gudang (2009) and explosion at Kertih GPP Complex A (2012). The latest accident was an explosion at the Petronas Gas Processing Plant 4 (GPP4) in Kertih on 19 June 2014. There were also other incidents reported in offshore operations in Terengganu, Kelantan, Sabah and Sarawak waters.

DurationThis is a weekend program and the module meet once a month for two days (Saturday and Sunday - ten days). The first module will start in January 2015 and the last module finishes in May 2015.

01 Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment in Oil and Gas Operations (Two Days)

This course emphasizes the importance of major hazard risk identifica-tion and assessment analysis to determine the right course of action in the event of any man-made emergencies such as toxic chemical spillage, toxic gas release, fire and explosion. Risk identification is the first steps towards any accident prevention program. Using the right techniques can ensure that all hazards are identified. Risk assessment is required in order to plan an effective safety systems to eliminate or reduce the risks of accidents.

Course content:• Hazard identification, risk assessment and risk control (HIRARC)• Control of Industrial Major Hazard Regulations (CIMAH)• Job Hazard Analysis (JHA)• Job Safety Analysis (JSA)• Hazard Identification (HAZID)• Preliminary Hazard Analysis (PHA)• Failure Mode and Effect Analysis (FMEA)• Hazard and Operability Studies (HAZOP)• Fault Tree Analysis (FTA) technique• Petroleum Act 1984 – Safety Measure

02 Oil and Gas Production and Its Hazards (Two Days)

This course emphasizes the importance of safety in oil and gas instal-lation. It provides an overview of the overall oil and gas operations and identify hazards at all stages of the production process. Safety plan is required in order to develop an effective safety systems to avoid accidents and understanding of basic operations is critical in identify-ing all related hazards.

Course content:• Oil and gas operations• Oil and gas production platform• Platform fabrications and roll out• Hook-up and installation• Extraction and processing of crude oil• Marine safety – dynamic positioning of supply vessel• Oil and gas products and material• Basic Off-shore Safety Induction and Emergency Training (BOSIET)• Plant operations, maintenance and failure modes• Permit-to-work (PTW) and lock-out-and-tag-out (LOTO)• Confined space• Lifting of goods and man• Work on height• Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS)• Fire and explosion risk and emergency response plan (ERP)• Process safety management (PSM)• Management of change • Site specific procedures

03 Major Accident Hazard and Emergency Response Plan (Two Days)

This course emphasizes the effect of major accident to employees, properties and the environment in the short and long term. Results of major accident risk assessment can be used to develop emergency response plan that consider both the employees as well as the public. Right course of action in the event of major accidents include toxic chemical spillage, toxic gas release, fire, explosion and release of radioactive material. Lessons learned and case study will give a good exposure in order to develop an effective safety systems. Case studies include Bhopal, Chernobyl, Exxon Valdez, Piper Alpha, Bright Spar-klers, LPG explosion in Mexico and others. Emergency response plan is crucial at all major hazard installation to mitigate the risks of accidents. Both on-site and off-site plan is needed to ensure that all aspects of emergency are considered.

Course content:• Risk assessment, prevention and mitigation• Management of major emergency - emergency response plan (ERP)• Legal aspects – civil, criminal liability• Insurance aspects• Damage control team• Fire fighting and self rescue• Closed containers and vessel fire-fighting• Risks from water reactive material• Oil spill response (OSR)• Toxic release – gas or liquid• ERP for full surface tank fires• Managing water, fire and major chemical spillages• Lessons learned from major accident – Tiram Kimia, Bright Sparklers Sungai Buluh and Shell Bintulu • Safety case• Case study – Seveso, Flixborough, LPG explosion Mexico• Case study – Bhopal, Agent Orange (Dioxin)
