Over time, plant modifications, fuel changes, new personnel and new procedures can leave a plant exposed to fire or explosion.

Unfortunately, this does not become apparent until an accident occurs and the investigation reveals the cause that will usually be a combination of factors.

It is good practice for management to initiate periodic reviews of safety systems as designed, operated and maintained as well as plant procedures in order to minimise the risk.

FCT is well qualified to carry out periodic safety checks and audits, having been involved in a number of plant safety design projects, development of codes of practice for operating plant, safety audits, fire and accident investigations and HAZOP and HAZAN studies.
