Open the catalog to page 1Business Challenges:THE NEED FOR COMPLIANCE &SAFETY ALIGNMENT Industrial organizations must be vigilant about the risk of incidents in their facilities — a lack of previous incidents is no guarantee against future occurrences. By constantly monitoring process safety performance and actively responding to all warning signs, organizations can operate safely and securely. Organizational safety culture has become increasingly important with changes in industry — such as mergers and acquisitions (M&A), restructuring, outsourcing, and downsizing. These changes can result in loss of in-house expertise,...
Open the catalog to page 2KEY MODULES FOR INDUSTRIAL ORGANIZATIONS APM Safety, part of GE Vernova’s APM suite, is designed to provide integrated tools to help identify and mitigate process safety hazards, help manage critical safety instrumentation, and support equipment and process changes that can increase safety risk. Hazard Analysis Safety Instrumented Systems (SIS) Management
Open the catalog to page 3Hazard analyses are conducted for new and existing industrial facilities regularly to uncover potentially dangerous situations. As part of a corporate risk management program, and to support compliance requirements, these analyses are used to: • Document safeguards to mitigate potentially hazardous situations. • Make recommendations to modify processes. • Add safeguards to achieve the desired safety level. A hazard analysis considers the operation of the equipment in both normal and abnormal conditions. The Hazard Analysis capability in GE Vernova's APM Safety application is designed to help...
Open the catalog to page 402 Major catastrophic incidents have increased the focus on safety in asset intensive facilities around the world. Assessing, designing, managing, and maintaining Safety Instrumented Systems (SIS) is critical to mitigate such risks in process industries. GE Vernova's SIS Management capability is designed to help customers maintain and manage the reliability and performance of critical process instrumentation and safety instrumented systems while meeting compliance requirements. This capability is developed based on international industry standards ISA 84/IEC 61511 and IEC 61508. Key features...
Open the catalog to page 5GE Vernova's SIS encompasses three safety lifecycle phases SIS Management offers the flexibility of 3 internal SIL Assessment methodologies, all of which can be done either qualitatively or semi quantitatively and are based on industry standards such as IEC-61511, and IEC-61508: • Risk Matrix helps users compare the current residual risk against user-defined risk thresholds to determine the SIL requirement of the Instrumented Function. • Process Hazard Analysis (PHA) helps users break down common organizational silos and leverage the PHA to determine the SIL requirement. • Layer of Protection...
Open the catalog to page 603 Management of Change Management of Change (MOC) follows a systematic approach to delivering change, taking into consideration aspects of operations that could be impacted because of that change. Using MOC, changes are undertaken as change projects. In the change project, changes are formally introduced, approved, and implemented as tasks. MOC, in the APM Safety application, is a flexible solution engineered to: • Create and manage change projects. • Communicate changes to team members. • Enforce an approval system to provide accountability for the change. When a change is being implemented,...
