Process Safety is all about reducing risk. Find out what tolerable risk means\, and how to employ layers of protection to reduce the inherent risks of operating a production facility to a tolerable level. Each of the layers – basic process control interlocks\, operator response to alarms\, safety instrumented systems (SIS)\, pressure relief devices and others – have their pros and cons\, as well as specifications around use. Let’s examine the tradeoffs associated with these layers when employing a process safety program. \nPresenter: Scott Hayes \n \nScott Hayes is the DCSNext Portfolio Manager at Rockwell Automation. He is a licensed control systems engineer with more than 20 years of experience leading automation projects\, as well as hands-on configuring and networking of DCS\, PLC\, HMI\, process historian and visualization solutions. He has process control experience in upstream and downstream oil and gas\, petrochemical\, pulp and paper\, and discrete manufacturing. As a TÜV-certified functional safety engineer\, he is the process safety SME for MAVERICK Technologies. \n

DESCRIPTION:Download and install Zoom software if necessary \nRegister in advance for this meeting: \nhttps://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZAqc-6qpz4pE9I35OfFow2ITMK8KRU2_mTh \nAfter registering\, you will receive a confirmation email containing information about joining the meeting. \nYou may join the meeting starting at approximately 11:00 am for socializing and announcements \nThe presentation will begin at 11:30 am \nAbstract: \nToday’s automation systems are much more highly connected than they were at the start of this millennium. Advances in technology\, the cost of computing and the speed of communication in just the last seven years have brought industries higher performance\, optimization\, visibility\, advanced system diagnostics with high reliability and availability\, fault tolerance\, analytics and production yields that unquestionably have revolutionized all industry sectors. Convergence of site automation system technologies and traditional enterprise IT systems have become more prevalent and provide opportunities such as the remote mobile worker\, integration into MES and ERP systems and remote access for troubleshooting and support. This is the one side of the blade most sought after.The flip side to these efforts and strategies has also brought untraditional risk to these systems. Risks with low likelihood and questionably low to mid impact are no longer the case as integrated control and safety critical systems have indirect enterprise network connection into one digital ecosystem vastly connected to the public internet. This is the side of the blade that can and has cut deep. Cyber actors using flaws in software lack of security controls and public connectivity to enterprise IT systems have and will continue to leverage victims’ networks and systems for nefarious means whether that is ransomware\, tampering and manipulation or denial of service and view. This talk will cover strategies\, standards\, and good engineering practice that asset owner operators\, integrators and vendor delivery service groups should be doing. Also\, a walk through recent cyber intrusions and impacts analysis \nPresenter: Marco Ayala Director | ICS Cybersecurity & Sector Lead | 1898 & Co.\, Part of Burns & McDonnell \n \nMarco Ayala is a process automation professional with over 25 years of experience working in petrochemical facilities where he designed\, engineered\, and maintained process automation\, safety systems and integrated networks.  Marco is active in the oil and gas\, chemicals industry\, maritime domain including offshore facilities. Mr. Ayala is an established and respected instructor for ISA cyber courses. He is a member and contributor to the AMSC Cybersecurity efforts as Chair\, InfraGard member; Sector Chief of the Maritime Domain – Cross Sector Council for ports and terminals.

SUMMARY:Using Improved Tunable Diode Laser Technology to Increase Fired Heater Reliability
DESCRIPTION:INSTRUCTIONS:  \nDownload and install Zoom software if necessary \nRegister in advance for this meeting:\nhttps://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZEtcOyqpjgvE9JEuDoXnOHXhDEBqLomigOT \nAfter registering\, you will receive a confirmation email containing information about joining the meeting. \nYou may join the meeting starting at approximately 11:00 am for socializing and announcements \nAbstract: \nFired heaters\, used to heat process fluids\, are critical pieces of equipment used continuously in refining and petrochemical operations globally. Large periods of downtime for these assets can cause millions of dollars in loss and limit downstream production if there are reliability issues. A common cause of reliability issues is related to overheating the convection section of the fired heater to compensate for inefficiencies in how the radiant section is operated. Utilizing recent advancements in Tunable Diode Laser (TDL) measurement capabilities allows users a measurement capability which enables safely increasing efficiencies in the radiant section’s operation to maximize reliability and product throughput while decreasing environmental impact. Recent TDL technology advancements have revolutionized the industry by allowing end users to safely run their assets at their operational limits. \nPresenter: Donald Wyatt \nDonald Wyatt has worked in the field of Analytical Instrumentation and Process Analyzers for 25+ years. He graduated from Auburn University in 1993 with a BS in Chemical Engineering. He joined Fisher Rosemount right out of school as a technical sales person in their Analytical Division. Three years later he moved on to Analytical Specialties (ASI)\, an analyzer only manufacturer’s representative firm\, where he spent the next twelve years providing analytical solutions. While working at ASI he worked as a member of the team that developed a TDLS platform. He participated in two Department of Energy projects: “Tunable Diode Laser Sensor for Monitoring and Control of Harsh Combustion Environments”\, and “Advanced Combustion Diagnostics and Control for Furnaces\, Fired Heaters and Boilers”. In 2008 Yokogawa purchased Analytical Specialties. Donald spent the next seven years managing the newly formed Yokogawa Laser Analysis Division. In 2015 he moved to TechStar where he currently is in Business Development. His two primary responsibilities include instrumentation and automation project support for many Engineering firms in the greater Houston area and as a subject matter expert supporting Tunable Diode Laser Spectrometer (TDLS) analytical applications. \n \n
