Management Report
Process Safety:The Cornerstone of a
Global Economy

CCPS’ FOUNDERS ENVISIONED that the CCPS process safety


mission would be world-wide. They demonstrated this commitment in
the international nature of CCPS conferences and the support that
CCPS lends other organizations around the world interested in promoting
process safety. Additionally, from our earliest days, a significant
percentage of CCPS book sales have been outside the United States.

In the last few years, though, CCPS leaders have recognized that CCPS
must become more than a US-based organization serving the world;
it must be a global organization.
Scott Berger
CCPS Director
The globalization of CCPS began in 2004 with the publication of the
Process Safety Beacon in numerous languages. In 2006, CCPS made its
global presence physical, running programs and events in Mumbai, In the last few years,
India and Qingdao, China, including training. We are expanding our
activities in China and India to include additional membership and proj-

cal members spawn new and interesting projects in the coming years.

Smaller companies, whether in the US or abroad, present a significant need for additional process safety
resources. CCPS continues to support process safety in smaller companies through its Occupational
Safety & Health Administration (OSHA) Alliance on chemical reactivity hazard management, on-going
recruiting efforts, and participation in meetings of key state chemical industry trade organizations.

In 2006, CCPS also established an online process safety community to facilitate member-to-member
interaction and to put the CCPS experience on our members’ desktops. This new technology, featuring
blogging, bulletin boards, news feeds, and other important tools, will bridge global time zones and make
it easier than ever for smaller companies to participate in CCPS. CCPS sponsors also believe this
investment will engage the increasing number of younger chemical engineers who are assuming
process safety responsibilities.

We thank you for your continued dedication to process safety and for your support of CCPS.

Building a Global Community Committed to Process Safety 1


Operations Report

SINCE ITS INCEPTION, CCPS has been the leading source of


process safety information. In 2006, however, CCPS took the distribu-
tion of its process safety resources to a whole new level, launching an
ambitious project to make CCPS content available online in a fully
searchable, topic driven format. This approach differs from the
traditional book format and offers multiple levels of detail available
at the click of a mouse. This new CCPS Web Community also includes
a process safety blog, bulletin board, and news feeds. CCPS members
are holding real-time, online technical discussions, presenting
benchmarking data, asking questions and providing feedback—
all in a secure, informal forum.
Karen Person
Project Engineer and
Industry Liaison
More importantly, this technology will be a primary catalyst for the
productive discussions that occur between and among CCPS members
as they interact on project committees and in meetings.
We value your input
As CCPS begins its 22nd year and becomes a truly global organization, and hope that, with
increased accessibility to CCPS materials and to other CCPS members
has become a top priority. Using these new web services, CCPS is our increasing online,
reaching parts of companies that may not have previously been able to

fully participate. Smaller companies, in particular, are now using CCPS
resources online more easily and cost effectively, while CCPS’ global help you achieve your
companies are using the new web tools to integrate CCPS best prac-
tices into their facilities and workforces abroad.
process safety goals
more effectively.
As CCPS begins new projects on diverse topics including process
safety metrics, independent protection layers, hazard identification
and vapor clouds explosions, it is imperative that CCPS members have
immediate access to project documents and to each other. Employees of member companies who once
might not have participated in CCPS are now finding it easy and beneficial and are discovering the true
value of CCPS project work.

In 2007, CCPS will continue to make process safety resources available online. Our goal is to establish
a single, interactive website that incorporates the full CCPS library and that serves the industry
for most, if not all, process safety needs. The CCPS Web Community can be accessed by going to
www.ccpsonline.org and logging in with your company information.

We invite all employees of CCPS member companies to become active in CCPS and welcome the
opportunity to discuss ways you might become involved.

If your company is not a CCPS member, we encourage you to consider membership. CCPS members
and volunteers are the key to our success.

Milestones of 2006
■ PROCESS SAFETY BEACON
Now in its sixth year, the Process Safety Beacon continues to extend its reach and impact
as the world’s leading monthly process safety publication. With a growing editorial board
and expanding network of volunteer translators, the Beacon is bolstering process safety
awareness among operating personnel worldwide. To receive the free Beacon email each
month, register at www.aiche.org/ccps/publications/beacon/index.aspx.

■ PERIODICALS FEATURING THE BEACON:


Chemical Engineering Progress
Chemical News (India)
Safety, Health and Environment (Sinopec-China, Mandarin)

■ LANGUAGES AVAILABLE:
Arabic, Dutch, English, French, German, Gujarati, Hebrew, Hindi, Italian, Japanese, Korean,
Mandarin, Portuguese, Spanish, Swedish, Thai

■ SUCCESSFUL INTERNATIONAL WORKSHOPS


CCPS held highly attended workshops in China, partnering with
the China University of Petroleum, and in India, partnering
with the Indian Chemical Council. These workshops represent
the first steps in international growth activities for CCPS.

■ ADVANCING PROCESS SAFETY


During 2006, CCPS continued to add to its large body of process
safety knowledge that now includes over 100 books, software and other products. We completed the
following projects in the past year:

■ Human Factors Methods for Improving Performance in the Process Industries:


As process complexity increases, it’s more important than ever that design engineers understand
how humans and equipment interact so they can design user-machine interfaces that are resistant to
human error. This basic, easy-to-read reference should be part of the standard toolbox for process
and design engineers throughout industry.

■ Guidelines for Management of Change for Process Safety: CCPS has updated guidance
on this cornerstone principle of process safety. Including case studies and real-life examples plus
CD-based support tools, this new book details the methods for measuring, auditing, and improving
the efficiency and effectiveness of process safety.

■ Guidelines for Safe and Reliable Instrumented Protective Systems: This detailed
implementation guide for IEC 61508, IEC 61511, and ISA-84 standards explains the decision-making
and work processes for the management and implementation of instrumented protective systems
(IPS) throughout a project’s life.

■ Process Safety and Risk Management of Chemical Parks: This report, developed in
collaboration with the European Process Safety Centre (EPSC), addresses the challenges inherent
to manufacturing locations where multiple companies operate on sites that were once owned by a
single company. In such situations, disputes over ownership of issues may interfere with resolution,
while cross-company impacts may be missed. The report may be downloaded from either the
EPSC or CCPS website.

We welcome project suggestions at any time. For more information, contact

showcase lessons learned since the 2nd edition was published in 1992, including new hazard evaluation
procedures and a refinement of the detailed PHA checklists included in the previous two editions.

PROCESS SAFETY INCIDENT DATABASE


CCPS established the Process Safety Incident Database (PSID) to capture high-value lessons from process
safety incidents. PSID combines anonymously submitted incident reports and important lessons learned
with a search mechanism that allows retrieval of specific
data in areas such as process design, hazard analysis, and

Upcoming Projects and Events
SAFETY IN CHEMICAL ENGINEERING EDUCATION PROGRAM
CCPS members strongly believe that graduating chemical engineers should begin their careers with a
solid foundation of process safety knowledge and process safety engineering fundamentals. CCPS’ Safety
in Chemical Engineering Education (SACHE) program provides engineering faculty around the world with
process safety curricular materials. SACHE modules may be used in process safety courses or incorpo-
rated into basic engineering courses (e.g. thermodynamics, kinetics, unit operations, and design). More
than 140 universities worldwide use SACHE lecture materials and problem sets,
delivered through SACHE’s secure website www.sache.org. SACHE also trains
chemical engineering faculty in total-immersion workshops, focusing on the
engineering and management challenges of implementing process safety in a
working chemical plant.

The 2007 SACHE workshop will again be hosted by Rohm and Haas, Arkema,
and Chilworth Technology.

NEW PROJECTS
CCPS has begun its third decade with new projects that build on its legacy of thoughtful, pacesetting guidelines.
CCPS also continues to apply practical experience to improve and expand many of its signature works.
