Recommendation Management
Enhance the quality and efficiency of your risk assessment recommendation management with Watchmen's web-based tool and expert engineering support services.
HAZID, HAZOP and What-If Facilitation
Watchmen provides expert Process Hazard Analysis (PHA) facilitation for both greenfield projects and brownfield revalidations. We apply a full range of methodologies including HAZID, HAZOP, What-If/Checklist, Overpressure Risk Assessments (ORA), and Bowtie analysis for Major Accident Hazard (MAH) studies. Regardless of the approach, we can offer full support for Recommendation Management to ensure timely risk mitigation.
Our facilitators use advanced drawing navigation techniques to maintain clarity and momentum during sessions.
Ask us for details on how we can help you to reduce the overall PHA session time while improving the quality of the risk assessment.
Layer of Protection Analysis
Our facilitators are highly skilled in safety integrity level (SIL) engineering, ensuring compliance with the international IEC 61511/61508 standards. Using advanced safeguarding expertise, in many cases we can guide the team to solutions that avoid the need for a safety instrumented function (SIF). When a SIF is determined to be the best available safeguarding option, we can help to provide solutions that are reliable, practical and maintainable. The efficiencies gained by using our facilitators for both HAZOP and LOPA will save both time and money on your projects.

Bowtie and SCE Application with HAZOP and LOPA
Enhance the efficiency of risk management by employing a comprehensive approach. Begin by conducting a thorough Process Hazard Analysis (PHA), incorporating methodologies such as HAZOP or LOPA to pinpoint the highest-risk hazard scenarios. Subsequently, utilize these identified high-risk scenarios to construct insightful bowtie diagrams. These visual representations adeptly showcase the pivotal role of preventative safeguards in minimizing the probability of lost containment events and mitigative safeguards in curtailing potential consequences post-containment loss.
These safeguards, designated as Safety Critical Elements (SCE), play a crucial role in fortifying the facility against potential risks. The bowtie diagrams, serving as powerful tools, not only offer a clear visualization of the current risk landscape but also facilitate the management of these safety critical barriers. By maintaining the currency of these diagrams, management is equipped with a dynamic overview of the facility's risk profile.
This proactive approach extends to decision-making processes, aiding in the strategic prioritization of efforts directed at impaired SCE. Particularly, this proves invaluable in scenarios where limited safeguards are in place to avert or alleviate potential hazardous situations. Elevate your risk management strategy through the judicious application of bowtie diagrams and the meticulous management of Safety Critical Elements.
