Course Overview
Deferred maintenance and deferred decisions on refining pollution risk management both accrue interest. The energy transition has not removed the need for rigour in risk management; it has added to it. The course leaves participants able to diagnose weaknesses in the wider energy and hydrocarbon operations agenda before they become incidents. Progress on refining pollution risk management is usually lost in the gap between approval and execution. The most reliable predictor of sound this area of energy and hydrocarbon operations is whether anyone reviews it when nothing has gone wrong. It is appropriate for those preparing to take on wider responsibility for risk management. The programme uses small-group work so that each participant's treatment of refining pollution risk management is examined, not just described. The programme converts risk management from an area of general awareness into a set of repeatable practices. Participants leave with a first-ninety-days plan for the energy and hydrocarbon operations discipline rather than a set of notes.
