Overview

Fires often cause explosions in vessels, particularly those containing liquids common in Process plants. Fire fighting in the petrochemical, pharmaceutical and chemical process industries may be particularly complex, where, potentially every fire is a Hazmat incident.  Large quantities of toxic fumes are frequently involved and may lead Company Emergency Response Team (CERT) members to undertake rash actions which constitute hazards to personnel. It is essential to refresh and update these sets of skills as a CERT member.   

This comprehensive training will refresh the participants with the knowledge and skills to handle the hazards of process plants correctly, in the event of an outbreak of fire which they are called on to fight. The participants will also refresh their knowledge to identify and correct hazards, thus, prevent fires from occurring.  All participants will have hands-on fire-fighting training in the industrial size fire-fighting training facility with advanced firefighting scenarios.
