Frequently Asked Questions
Process safety is built into every stage of engineering. It includes hazard identification, risk assessment, and protective design features to prevent accidents and ensure safe operation.
Key elements include:
-
- Pressure relief and containment systems
- Safety instrumented systems (SIS)
- Emergency shutdown (ESD) controls
- Fire and gas detection systems
- HAZOP (Hazard and Operability) studies
These measures reduce operational risks and protect personnel, equipment, and the environment.
Fabrication quality control often involves:
- Material certification and documentation
- Dimensional checks and fit-up verification
- Weld inspection and testing (per ASME Section IX)
- Pressure and leak testing
- Instrumentation calibration
- Pre-shipment Factory Acceptance Testing (FAT)
These measures ensure the final system performs safely and consistently under real operating conditions.

Documentation provides full traceability and verification that each system meets its design intent and safety requirements. Typical deliverables include:
- P&IDs and process flow diagrams
- Material certificates and inspection reports
- Weld logs and pressure test records
- Instrumentation calibration sheets
- FAT/SAT protocols and results
- Operating and maintenance manuals
Comprehensive documentation ensures consistent quality, supports audits, and simplifies future maintenance or system upgrades.
