Fertilizer Academy is the premier online training platform for the fertilizer industry. We provide a comprehensive end-to-end training solution for operators at ammonia and urea plants, ranging from new hires to supervisory levels. Our mission is to leverage industry experience to prevent operational errors and avoid process incidents. Our courses are developed by an independent group of senior specialists who possess deep expertise in the operation and maintenance of ammonia, urea, nitric acid, and ammonium nitrate plants. The curriculum spans key topics such as Ammonia and Urea Plant Operation, Process Safety, Incident Analysis and Case Studies, Corrosion and Material Selection, High-Pressure Equipment, among others. Customized training courses are available for fertilizer companies upon request. Additionally, we offer our programs in multiple languages to ensure global accessibility for all operators and engineers.

AmmoniaKnowHow represents an independent group of nitrogen syngas specialists with an impressive number of years of experience in designing, maintaining and operating ammonia, nitric acid, methanol, and ammonium nitrate plants. Members Area is intended to function as a professional community portal with improved quality of information and renewed social functions to meet the requirements of promoting the communication and dialogue between members. AmmoniaKnowHow Members can consult the latest risk register developed specifically for ammonia, nitric acid, methanol, NPK and ammonium nitrate technologies by logging in to the Members Area. They can contribute (anonymously) to the risk registers by sharing incidents from their experience in order to improve the process safety in our industry.

Fertilizer Industrial Services comprise a group of specialists in nitrogen fertilizer production technologies, covering ammonia, urea, nitric acid, ammonium nitrate, NPK as well as methanol process plants. Currently, with our partners from the Netherlands and India we execute challenging projects in Asia, Middle East, Central America and Europe.

Supporting the development of the Design Safety Case during FEED phase for Arrow Upstream Project. As part of the Design Safety Case and project deliverables are: • HAZOPs, LOPA CHAZOP, SIMOP and SAFOP studies for all major projects areas: wellheads skids, gas and water gathering systems, FCFs (Field Compression Facilities) and CGPF (Compression Gas Process Facility); • Development of Physical Effect Modeling Report (also known as Fire and Explosion Analysis) including calculation and associated analysis; • Detailed FEED QRA study for wellheads skids, FCFs (Field Compression Facilities) and CGPF (Gas Compression Facility); Study will include assessments of construction worker and operator risks against Arrow Energy tolerability criteria; Study will also include assessment of safety risks and the potential vulnerability of a range of occupied buildings from blast, thermal and toxic hazards. The assessments will consider human safety and occupied building risk both during normal operation and in periods of major construction activities and unit shutdowns. • Development of Safety and Fire Protection Philosophies; • ALARP demonstration; • Preliminary and detailed bow-tie studies for MAH; • Development of project Human Factors Engineering and ergonomic studies for skid mounted equipments; • As requested additional process safety studies and technical notes may be developed including but not limited to: o fire and gas consequence modeling, o gas dispersion and survivability calculations, o detailed fault trees diagram using FaultTree+ to assess the likelihood of catastrophic runaway scenarios associated with the project facilities, o additional risk and cost benefit analysis.

Involved in the Concept Select phase (transition into FEED) for Arrow Energy (Shell and PetroChina JV): • Assessment of major hazard risks (including flammable, explosion, jet fires, and catastrophic failures) associated with compression facilities during modularisation concept exercise. This included assessment of occupied areas of the compression plant that will determine the final plant layout; • Development of bow-tie diagrams and workshop study facilitator for wellheads skid design; • Overpressure risk assessment study for wellhead skids and well pads. The study included a full facility review, overpressure scenarios development and detailed quantification, including fault trees and reliability assessment, with the provision of LSIR contouring, and examination of operational risks; • Review of Arrow Energy standards and specification for compliance with Australian and international standards prior to FEED; • Development of FEED project deliverables to support the Design Safety Case as per Arrow Project Guideline and Queensland Government Work Health and Safety Regulation; • Development of FEED CTRs (Cost, Time and Resource) and schedule; • Development of scope of work and selection of sub-consultants for process safety studies and noise impact assessment; • Actively involved in recruiting and selecting the Process Safety engineers; • Developing the Process Safety work share scope and responsibility matrix between Brisbane (Home Office) and Chengdu (Work Office) in China.
