LPG HAZOP Training

Learning Outcomes

• Apply HAZOP methodology to systematically identify and analyze potential hazards and operability problems in LPG processes.
• Analyze LPG-specific properties and their implications for process safety and operability.
• Evaluate the effectiveness of existing safeguards and recommend appropriate risk reduction measures.
• Design a HAZOP study plan tailored to an LPG facility, including scope, team composition, and documentation requirements.
• Implement HAZOP recommendations and track their resolution to ensure continuous improvement in process safety.
• Demonstrate effective communication and teamwork skills during HAZOP sessions, ensuring comprehensive and accurate hazard identification.

Target Audience

This course is designed for process engineers, safety officers, plant operators, and maintenance personnel involved in the design, operation, or management of LPG facilities. It is also suitable for HAZOP team members and facilitators seeking specialized knowledge in LPG applications.

Prerequisites

None — open enrollment. However, a basic understanding of process operations or safety concepts is beneficial.

Course Outline

Practicals

Overview

The practicals provide hands-on experience in applying HAZOP methodology to realistic LPG scenarios. Learners will work in teams to analyze P&IDs, identify hazards, and propose safeguards, using actual LPG system documentation and case studies.

Practical Activities

• Practical 1: HAZOP Documentation Review — Learners review sample P&IDs and process descriptions for an LPG storage facility, identifying nodes and parameters for analysis. (2h)
• Practical 2: HAZOP Team Exercise (Storage System) — In teams, learners conduct a HAZOP on an LPG storage tank system, documenting deviations, causes, consequences, and safeguards. (3h)
• Practical 3: HAZOP Team Exercise (Transfer System) — Teams perform a HAZOP on an LPG transfer and loading system, focusing on operational and human factors. (3h)
• Practical 4: Facilitated HAZOP Simulation — Learners take turns facilitating a HAZOP session on a full LPG facility, managing team dynamics and reaching consensus. (2h)

Summatives

Each delegate is assessed continuously throughout the course via daily exercises, scored practical assignments, and a final summative test at the end.

Practical Assignments — 30%

Practical assignments are observed and scored against a rubric during the practical sessions. Each delegate's practical mark is averaged into a single 100% score and contributes 30% to the final total.

Daily Exercises — 20%

Every training day ends with a multiple-choice exercise scored out of 100%. The scores from each daily exercise are averaged across the duration of the course to produce a Daily Average mark, which contributes 20% to the final total.

Final Test — 50%

On the last day a final summative test is written. It is a multiple-choice paper with multiple-answer questions: each question may have more than one correct option, and a single wrong selection on a question marks the entire question wrong — no partial credit. The final test is scored out of 100% and contributes 50% to the overall mark.

Final Total

Component	Out of	Weight
Practical Assignments (rubric-scored)	100%	30%
Daily Average (multiple choice)	100%	20%
Final Test (multi-answer multiple choice)	100%	50%
Final Total	—	100%

All marks are recorded on the AATICD LMS and visible to each learner under their account.

Certificate

How it works

• Certificates are auto-generated on the AATICD LMS as soon as the marks pass the 50% threshold.
• Each certificate is a branded PDF with the delegate's name, the course title, the unit standard ID, NQF level, credits, and the date of issue.
• You can download or print your certificate from your LMS dashboard at any time after issue — there's no reissue fee and no expiry date.
• If you scored under 50% you can sit the final test again at the next scheduled session at no extra cost.

Where to find it

Sign in to the LMS, open your dashboard, and your certificates appear under My Certificates. Each entry has a View / Download button and a print option.
