CHEMICAL PROCESSING

MWS Risk has an in-depth knowledge of many chemical processing industries and extensive experience in the hazards associated with them. To tackle these hazards, MWS Risk has registered professional engineers in process safety engineering, fire risk engineering and functional safety, which, when combined, form a comprehensive service in risk identification, analysis and control, from concept design through to implementation, operation and maintenance.

MWS Risk engineers are experts in quantitative risk assessments (QRA), process safety studies, process hazard analysis (PHA), consequence analysis of fires, explosion, toxic gas dispersion and loss of containment of hazardous substances. Our focus is on inherent safety. To do this we concentrate on the hazards that exist and work with the client to effectively apply inherently safety design concepts. This in turn reduces the reliance on “add-on” systems, which can significantly reduce capital and ongoing costs, while achieving a far safer plat or system.

We have led audits and documentation development for process safety management plans, emergency response plans and evacuation procedures.

MWS Risk is experienced and qualified in the implementation of the Functional safety lifecycle (IEC 61511) and in the facilitation of risk workshops and studies, including HAZID, HAZOP, RAMBO, CHAIR, Bowtie, CHAZOP, LOPA and FMEA/FMECA.
