Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) Development

Process safety regulations mandate development of Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs). As an integral part of all PSM, RMP, and CalARP programs, we develop SOPs for the covered processes. Our engineers work closely with operators, managers, and engineers to ensure practical and easy-to-use SOPs are developed. Additionally, we develop a separate set of maintenance procedures addressing operational issues and for deactivating equipment items and repairing them.

Experience:

  • Developed SOPs for: chlorine injection systems, ammonia refrigeration systems, chemical handling in manufacturing shops, anhydrous ammonia railcar unloading systems, and aqueous ammonia injection systems.
  • Developed lesson plans and provided training on all newly developed SOPs.
  • Developed a set of maintenance procedures for maintenance personnel to remove, dismantle, repair and re-install equipment items for a chlorine injection system.
