TECHNICAL SAFETY SERVICES

TECHNICAL SAFETY SERVICES

At QHSE Services Provyda Ltd, our Technical Safety Services are designed to identify, evaluate, and mitigate hazards across complex industrial systems — protecting life, assets, the environment, and reputation. We apply systematic engineering methods and industry standards to reduce risk to As Low As Reasonably Practicable (ALARP) and ensure full compliance with Nigerian and international regulatory requirements. Our multi-disciplinary team of technical safety engineers and specialists works across all lifecycle phases — from design to decommissioning — in high-risk industries such as oil & gas, petrochemicals, energy, manufacturing, construction, and infrastructure.

1. Process Safety & Risk Engineering

We analyze and manage operational and process hazards using structured methodologies to ensure safe plant design and operation.

  • IHSE Plans, Site-Specific Risk Assessments, and Method Statements
  • Permit-to-Work systems and Job Hazard Analysis (JHA)
  • Project HSE staffing: Officers, Advisors, Supervisors
  • Toolbox talks, induction, and safety briefings
  • Incident/accident reporting, investigation, and root cause analysis

2. Fire & Explosion Risk Assessment (FERA)

We conduct quantitative and qualitative FERA to assess the likelihood and impact of fire scenarios on facilities and personnel.

  • Flammable inventory and ignition analysis
  • Fire/explosion modeling (Jet Fire, Pool Fire, Flash Fire, BLEVE)
  • Passive and active fire protection design review
  • Firewater demand and fire detection system adequacy assessments

3. Quantitative Risk Assessment (QRA)

Our QRA services quantify the potential for hazardous events and assess risks to people, environment, and assets using internationally accepted techniques.

  • Individual and societal risk calculations
  • Risk contours and F-N curves
  • Facility siting, buffer zone, and land use planning
  • Compliance with DPR/NMDPRA, IFC, and international QRA requirements

4. Technical Safety Reviews & Engineering Assurance

We ensure safety is embedded into facility design and modifications, minimizing inherent risks through safe engineering principles.

  • Design HSE Reviews (Conceptual, FEED, Detailed Design stages)
  • ALARP demonstrations
  • Safety Critical Element (SCE) identification and performance standards
  • Facility Siting Studies and Occupied Building Risk Assessments (OBRA)
  • Pipeline and flare safety reviews

5. Emergency Response & Escape Analysis

We support preparedness and response capability planning for credible worst-case scenarios.

  •  Emergency Systems Survivability Analysis (ESSA)
  •  Emergency Shutdown (ESD) and Fire & Gas system adequacy
  •  Escape, Evacuation, and Rescue Analysis (EERA)
  •  Occupancy and muster point load analysis
