Useful information from codes, performance based and good engineering practice This book gives a clear and thorough insight into fire protection in Hydrocarbon processing facilities. It provides the informaiton about performance based design approach which use engineering analysis of hazard, as well as requirements from related code. I recommend fire protection system designers, safety managers and risk surveyers working in hydrocarbon processing plants to read this book.Won K.Kim, ,PEPresident of RMS. "Excellent book!" according to Daniel Bobadilla Velasco. Excelente resource for those who are looking for guide for the develop of a fire protection strategy in the hydrocarbon processing facilities. From team management, risk assessment and analysis, fire protection fundamentals and finally inspection and testing. It is not a manual to design fire protection systems to the wide range of equipment involved, but it is a guide to understand the overall risks involved in this industry. We will always require the final use of fire protection standards like NFPA.. "Excellent resource." according to Marcus Dunlap. Great book with lots of information industrial process facilities and how to approach them for providing fire protection.
Note: CD-ROM/DVD and other supplementary materials are not included as part of eBook file.. This definitive volume is a must-read for loss prevention managers, site managers, project managers, engineers and EHS professionals. This book provides the tools to develop, implement, and integrate a fire protection program into a company or facility’s Risk Management System. While there are many resources available on fire protection and prevention in chemical petrochemical and petroleum plants—this is the first book that pulls them all together in one comprehensive resource
