SIL TRAINING – A PRACTICAL APPROACH

A Safety Instrumented Function (SIF) is designed to eliminate the cause of a risk or minimize the consequence of an event. The expectation of the SIF’s reliability to perform upon demand must be defined so that it is designed appropriately. The Safety Integrity Level (SIL) study is a tool that is used to define this demand. A number of methodologies can be applied to obtain a SIF’s required SIL rating, namely use of a Risk Graph, a Risk Matrix or the LOPA methodology.

This full day course is designed to educate  participants in the SIL classification process from the perspective of a team member.

The course is meant to provide both instruction and workshop sessions so that the participants:

• Are familiar with the concept of ‘risk’
• Are familiar with the theory and terminology behind Layers of  Protection, SIS, SIF, SIL and LOPA.
• Are familiar with the different SIL methodologies : risk graph, risk matrix, LOPA.
• Have expectations as to what the SIL workshop will (and won’t) provide.
• Understand what deliverables can be expected from a SIL workshop.
• Have the opportunity to participate in SIL exercises in a safe environment.
• Opportunity to share SIL experiences.
