Description

In this episode of the Hydrocarbon Engineering Podcast, Lara Swett, Vice President of Technical & Safety Programs, American Fuel & Petrochemical Manufacturers (AFPM), joins us to explain how the downstream sector has continued to improve its process safety record.

Lara outlines what has changed over the past decade to ensure that Tier 1 process safety events have been cut in half.

We also explore what factors are the most challenging to control in terms of process safety, and best guidance for managing these challenges.
