Safety & Process Risk

Protecting personnel and process assets in high-hazard operations.

Procyon delivers process safety management, hazard analysis, mechanical integrity, and safety culture programmes for industrial facilities where the consequences of failure are severe — led by practitioners who have managed live process risk.

What We Do

Six service lines for process safety management.

Process Safety Management

Full PSM programme design and implementation using the DuPont 22-element framework — gap-assessed against your facility's operational reality, not a generic template.

  • PSM gap assessment and baselining
  • DuPont 22-element programme implementation
  • Safety management system documentation
  • Leadership PSM ownership and accountability frameworks

HAZOP / HAZID / LOPA

Structured hazard identification and risk assessment — from early-stage HAZID screening through full HAZOP facilitation and Layer of Protection Analysis for high-consequence scenarios.

  • HAZOP facilitation for continuous and batch processes
  • HAZID studies for new projects and major modifications
  • Layer of Protection Analysis (LOPA)
  • PHA revalidation and action register management

Mechanical Integrity

Systematic management of pressure vessels, piping, and safety-critical equipment to prevent loss of containment — from inspection planning through fitness-for-service assessment.

  • Safety-critical equipment register development
  • Inspection planning and interval justification
  • QA/QC for equipment in hazardous service
  • Fitness-for-service and remaining life assessment support

MOC / PSSR

Management of Change and Pre-Startup Safety Review programmes that close the gap between approved design and operating reality — where the majority of process incidents originate.

  • MOC procedure design and implementation
  • Change classification and screening frameworks
  • Pre-Startup Safety Review programme implementation
  • MOC training and workforce awareness programmes

Incident Investigation

Rigorous root cause analysis and systemic learning programmes that convert incidents and near misses into lasting operational improvements — documented for regulatory and board audiences.

  • Root cause and contributing factor analysis
  • Learning from incidents (LFI) system design
  • Near-miss reporting programme implementation
  • Incident reports structured for regulatory and board review

Safety Leadership

Safety culture transformation programmes that shift organisations from compliance-driven to leadership-led safety — with measurable behavioural and performance indicators.

  • Safety culture assessment and maturity benchmarking
  • Behaviour-Based Safety (BBS) programme design
  • Leadership safety walk and observation frameworks
  • Safety performance indicator and leading metrics framework

Why Procyon

Process safety is not a paper exercise.
We've managed live risk.

Most South Asian industrial facilities have a process safety policy. Far fewer have a working programme. The gap between documented intent and operational reality is where incidents happen — and where Procyon works.

Our practitioners have run PSM programmes at live petrochemical facilities, facilitated HAZOP studies under production pressure, and led incident investigations at major industrial operations. We bring operational experience in process safety — not framework literacy.

DuPont 22-Element PSM

Framework Expertise

Procyon's lead practitioners have implemented the DuPont framework at live petrochemical and fertilizer operations — not as observers, but as the specialists running the programme.

QAFAC · FFBL · FPCL · TAKREER

High-Hazard Track Record

Process safety delivery across methanol, MTBE, fertilizer, and large-scale Abu Dhabi petrochemical assets — calibrated to the real risk profile of high-consequence operations.

CSP® · CCPSC®

Credentialled Practitioners

Certifications backed by verifiable field delivery. Our process safety credentials are earned through decades of site-level programme execution, not exam preparation.
