Who should be involved in doing a HAZID?
During a HAZID assessment, it is best to carry this out in a multidisciplinary team similarly to the other processes like HAZOP and bowtie diagrams. Various engineering disciplines should be present (Process, Mechanical and Electrical are examples of the key engineering disciplines usually present), operations, maintenance and safety as well as the project manager of the project if applicable. It is always a great idea to have an independent chair for a HAZID since it provides an unbiased and objective perspective on the process safety assessment and ensures the team stay focussed on the task. This is where Finch can help support your needs as an independent body.
