Determine PSM process coverage, perform hazards assessments, and prepare facility Risk Management Plan.
Determine refinery maximum intended hazardous liquid inventories to help client comply with PSM regulations.
Develop refinery process safety information for the purpose of compliance with OSHA Process Safety Management (PSM) and EPA Risk Management Program (RMP) regulations.
Provide an independent 3rd party due diligence evaluation and plant site visit of a petroleum refinery in Asia.
Refinery compliance support with the OSHA Process Safety Management and EPA Risk Management Programs, including the development of process safety information (PSI).
Evaluate a reactor, design an associated scrubber, ammonia stripper, and provide other engineering data and equipment specifications for a H2S removal system.
Develop a summary table of safe operating limits (SOLs) for each of the processing units within a U.S. based refinery.
Calculate process conditions for various key refinery instruments to support instrumentation purchases in various refining process units.

Perform an evaluation of a refinery's existing wastewater effluent system's hydraulics to determine throughput capacity and make debottlenecking recommendations.
Update a refinery relief header/flare model prior to the installation of a new refinery flare and a seal pot as part of a flare gas recovery unit installation.
Develop options for the relocation and replacement of an existing refinery flare system.
Provide an independent engineering evaluation study of ways to reduce plant utility energy consumption for a proposed waste lubricant recycling facility.
Determine the maximum intended hazardous liquid inventories for two refineries to help the client fulfill its obligations specified in the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) Process Safety Management of Highly Hazardous Chemicals Regulation, 29 CFR 1910.119.
Perform process safety and risk management Process Hazards Analysis (PHA) meetings to mitigate the possibility of accidents or releases.
Perform regulatory compliance audits at multiple petroleum refineries to comply with OSHA Process Safety Management of Highly Hazardous Chemicals and EPA Risk Management Program regulations.
