Advanced Cause Tree Analysis Training Course
Introduction:
A cause tree is a graphical representation that illustrates the logical combinations of causes contributing to a specific undesired event or state. Examples of final events include explosions, equipment failure, toxic gas release, and production interruptions. Cause Tree Analysis offers several benefits, including:
1. It serves as a valuable tool for identifying risks within complex systems.
2. It enables a focused examination of individual faults while maintaining an overall perspective.
3. It provides an overview of how faults can result in significant consequences.
4. Individuals familiar with the analysis can quickly understand the results.
5. It allows for making probabilistic estimates.
Course Objectives:
The aim of the course is to introduce and develop a basic understanding of the cause tree analysis technique by means of short presentations and a syndicate exercise. The syndicate exercise will be chosen to match the client's activities.
Who Should Attend?
Who are familiar with other hazard and risk assessment techniques (e.g., HAZOP, FMEA) and want to learn another versatile tool.
