Course Overview

Regulators and insurers increasingly want documented evidence of how fire suppression in oil facilities is controlled. Deferred maintenance and deferred decisions on oil facilities both accrue interest. Organisations that document the energy and hydrocarbon operations capability properly resolve disputes about it far more quickly. The programme builds the judgement to know which parts of fire suppression in oil facilities to standardise and which to leave flexible. Participants leave with a method for the practice within energy and hydrocarbon operations, not a set of opinions about it. It is pitched for practitioners with responsibility for oil facilities, not for observers of it. Plans for fire suppression in oil facilities often fail at the handover point between functions. Work is grounded in real cases drawn from oil facilities, which each participant adapts to conditions in their own organisation. Participants finish with a short, specific brief on this area of energy and hydrocarbon operations ready to put in front of a decision maker.
