Introduction to PSSR Training (Pre-Startup Safety Review)
In high-risk environments such as oil refineries, petrochemical plants, and chemical manufacturing facilities, safety before startup is not just a procedure—it’s a necessity. Pyrophoric iron sulfide, a common byproduct in these industries, represents a significant ignition hazard that can lead to devastating fires and explosions if not properly managed. Our Pre-Startup Safety Review (PSSR) training course is designed to equip professionals with the knowledge and skills to conduct thorough safety reviews, ensuring that all systems, personnel, and procedures are fully prepared before operational commencement.
This course is aligned with Process Safety Management (PSM) standards and regulatory requirements, making it essential for engineers, safety officers, operations managers, and project leads working in sectors where process safety is paramount.
