One-Day Course on “Visualizing Process Safety Risks with Computational Fluid Dynamic Modelling”

1. To understand and visualize the hazards that can result in loss of containment through simulation using computational fluid dynamics
2. To gain a deeper understanding of what CFD can help to achieve in loss prevention engineering
3. To understand the applications of CFD in loss prevention, engineering design and process safety management

This course is to introduce how to apply CFD in loss prevention to industry professionals. The course aims to equip industry professionals with the knowledge to apply CFD in loss prevention including hazard identification and risk assessment, design and engineering controls, fire and gas detection, emergency response and enhance the understanding of fire, explosion and toxic hazards to achieve effective mitigation and safe engineering design for loss prevention purpose. The participants will gain analytical skill on hazard identification, consequence modelling, propose practical solutions, demonstrate the effectiveness of risk mitigation measures and achieve loss prevention.     

Lee Cho Hing currently is Gexcon’s General Manager Malaysia cum Business Development APAC. Lee has about 26 years of working experience in consultancy related to risk management, HSE and sustainability. Lee started his career as a Risk and Loss Prevention Engineer in a Global Fortune 500 enterprise. Over years he works closely with government authorities, energy companies, and industrial clients to deliver effective and forward-thinking risk solutions. His emphasis on applying advanced Loss Prevention concepts to engineering and operational challenges has led to improved safety performance and smarter design across complex projects. From 2009 to 2012, he served as an internal consultant for Singapore’s governmental agencies on PSM matters with respect to Jurong Island version 2.0 development plan. Recently, from 2023 to 2025, Lee has been contributing to the development of national hydrogen technical standards as an expert committee member of the Singapore Standards Council.

 

Richard Lee is currently the Business Development Lead of Gexcon based in Singapore. Prior to joining Gexcon in April 2023, he has worked over 16 years in DNV as a Quantitative Risk Assessment (QRA) consultant and as a technical support for consequence and risk modelling software PHAST and SAFETI. He has accumulated years of experience and expertise in technical safety and modelling software. Throughout his career he had delivered many safety studies such as QRA, Fire and Explosion Risk Analysis, Ship Collision Study, Dropped Object Study and etc for both onshore (e.g. refinery, tank farm and petrochemical plant) and offshore facilities (e.g. FPSO, jack-up rig, wellhead platform and etc). While working as the software technical support, he was also the trainer delivering QRA and software training. To date, he had delivered over 60 trainings, 15 webinars and conferences.
