The PRD operates by opening at a designated set pressure and by relieving the excess flowrate so that the pressure in the equipment or piping is maintained within its design conditions. If the PRD and its associated piping are not designed to relieve the excess flowrate or if the PRD fails to function on demand, there is a potential to overpressure and result in a loss of containment. In case of a loss of containment of flammable or toxic material, there is a potential for major accidents including vapor cloud explosions, fires or toxic exposure.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cde.nus.edu.sg\/chbe\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2020\/09\/OPP_graphic2e-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\"><\/p>\n<h3>Course outline:<\/h3>\n<p>In this course, the participants will be guided on the overpressure protection design principles and design requirements. This course is designed to provide a focused guidance on the relief system design adequacy reviews.

He is a chemical engineer with 23 years of process industry experience in petroleum refining, petrochemicals, chemicals, oil &amp; gas and industrial gases sectors across Asia Pacific, New Zealand and India. He is an IChemE registered Professional Process Safety Engineer and a Professional Engineer (Chemical) registered in Singapore. He has a well-rounded international experience in the operating, engineering and consulting environments.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cde.nus.edu.sg\/chbe\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2020\/09\/OPP_graphic4.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"400\" height=\"300\">Prior to his current role, Prem worked for multinational companies including ExxonMobil, Chevron, Air Products, Jacobs Engineering and WorleyParsons. He handled a regional process safety specialist role and provided process safety &amp; risk engineering support to the existing operating facilities and capital projects (up to US$700MM) across Asia Pacific region. Prem handled a regional subject matter expert role for overpressure protection design and analysis. During his early career, he personally performed relief load calculations, relief device sizing and flare header sizing calculations.<\/p>\n<p>He chaired several workshops on HAZID, HAZOP, SIL classification, risk assessments, bowtie reviews, LOPA and ALARP demonstration. He led and successfully completed specialised process safety studies such as Occupied Building Risk Assessments (OBRAs), overpressure protection studies and fire safety studies. He assisted major hazard installations in New Zealand and Singapore in their Safety Case development. He is an accomplished trainer for the process safety &amp; risk training courses. More recently, he has been assisting his clients on the Dust Hazard Analysis (DHA) facilitation.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Research and Course-work Based Programmes Join Us Admissions Modules Postgraduate Links Current Students Graduate &amp; Certificate Programmes Graduate Certificate in Process Safety Graduate Certificate in Industrial Hygiene Graduate Certificate in Workplace Risk &amp; Safety Management Graduate Certificate in Process &amp; Systems Engineering Executive Training Certificate in Safety, Health and Environmental Practices Professional Development Workshops 3+1+1 [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":40,"featured_media":0,"parent":1832,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"site-sidebar-layout":"default","site-content-layout":"default","ast-site-content-layout":"","site-content-style":"default","site-sidebar-style":"default","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-banner-title-visibility":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"disabled","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"disabled","footer-sml-layout":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"default","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":"","astra-migrate-meta-layouts":"default","ast-page-background-enabled":"default","ast-page-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"ast-content-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-1706","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/cde.nus.edu.sg\/chbe\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/1706","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/cde.nus.edu.sg\/chbe\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/cde.nus.edu.sg\/chbe\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cde.nus.edu.sg\/chbe\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/40"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cde.nus.edu.sg\/chbe\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1706"}],"version-history":[{"count":10,"href":"https:\/\/cde.nus.edu.sg\/chbe\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/1706\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":14775,"href":"https:\/\/cde.nus.edu.sg\/chbe\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/1706\/revisions\/14775"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cde.nus.edu.sg\/chbe\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/1832"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/cde.nus.edu.sg\/chbe\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1706"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
