Alarm management a hot topic in process
industry

The recent alarm management seminar held in Aberdeen by Matrikon Europe proved to be a huge success, with papers provided by Shell and EEMUA, plus ABB and Matrikon

Mike Bowbyes, Head of the Matrikon UK Products Division said, "We were overwhelmed by the response we had from interested companies Some of our delegates travelled from as far away as Norway to hear presentations from leading industry experts

There certainly seem to be a lot of companies out there that know they must improve their alarm management but need guidance on the best way forward".

As well as presentations from the Matrikon senior engineers, the UK HSE (Health and Safety Executive) was there to talk about the importance of continually improving process alarm management from a legislative point of view.

Perhaps one of the most interesting presentations was given by Shell who demonstrated how they have gone about their own alarm management activities on some of their flagship assets in the North Sea.

Other presenters included EEMUA, authors of EEMUA 191 'Alarm Systems - A Guide to Design, Management and Procurement' and ABB Engineering Services.

With more than 4,000 installations world-wide, Matrikon is one of the leading suppliers of process alarm management products and services.
