Senegal: AESA Plans Process Safety Training In Dakar For November

Atlantic Energy Skills Academy (AESA), in partnership with PetroSkills LLC, plans to hold a five-day process safety training programme in Dakar from Nov. 16 to 20.

It will be the first event under AESA’s West African Basin Energy Compliance (WABEC) initiative.

AESA said the session would offer PetroSkills’ HS45 course, Risk-Based Process Safety Management, for senior engineers, regulators and managers responsible for industrial facilities.

The academy said places would be limited to 25 participants. The intensive technical programme will cover management systems, risk-based decision-making and the application of those practices in the workplace. Participants will receive an internationally recognised HS45 certification, AESA said.

The programme is intended for senior engineers, regulatory bodies and asset directors.

The Dakar event is intended to launch a broader training programme for West Africa.

AESA’s proposed courses range from advanced instruction in gas facilities, well planning and electrical maintenance to practical training in welding, industrial communications infrastructure and hazardous-cargo transport.

The academy also plans to offer entry-level pathways for people without a technical background.
