Situation Management
For
New Control Room Operator
1 hour PDH Given
Wednesday October 14th,
2015
Powerful
Concepts for
Control Room
Operator
Effectiveness
Abstract
Every
day, 24
hours a
day, tens
of thousands
of operators
successfully
manage hundreds
of
millions
of
dollars each
of
complicated, sometimes
dangerous
equipment.
Operators have a
single
primary
task—keep
it working
well
and prevent
or
fix
any problems
that get
in
the
way.
Easy
to say;
difficult
to do for each
and every
minute
of
operation. Operators must
know
inside
and out
how
their
plants
or
operations work; how they
might get
into trouble; and
how to prevent trouble
from having
a bad
impact.
If
this
weren't a
tall
enough order,
they need
to be
able
to see
trouble
coming in
time
enough to
do that
job
effectively.
This
presentation provides
an
introduction into
serious
tools and infrastructure
for them
to do
even better.
For as
we
improve
their
operating
success,
we nudge those
accidents
and
incidents
that
lie
in
wait
further
away.
The
presentation identifies
the
importance of alarm
systems, the
human-machine
interface, and other
important
operational
safeguards, and
ties
it
together
into
a coherent
technology.
It
also
introduces a new
and most
important
tool for
situation
awareness to
come our
way
in
a very
long
time--weak
signals
analysis.
