Hazardex events are specific to hazardous area personnel, plant & process operations across all major industries. These events are of interest to senior engineers & operations management, from small independents to COMAH sites and all between. Likely to be of most relevance to those with professional responsibilities in explosion and functional safety risks (includes UKEX / ATEX / IECEx / CompEx / IEC 61508-11 plus all relevant). But also any engineers working in the high hazard industry wishing to expand their knowledge.

Hazardex in the Regions are sponsored by C&P Engineering Services

This year, we are holding three events around the UK:

Grangemouth, Scotland - Macdonald Inchyra Hotel - 18 June
Ellesmere Port, England - Holiday Inn Hotel - 17 September
Swansea, Wales - Village Hotel - 22 October

All are welcome whether entry level or decades of experience!

These events intentionally bring together the process safety community stake holders to network, review/learn current or forthcoming legislation, stay up-to-date with best practice and the latest research in those areas key to managing process safety effectively.

This year's contributors include (with many more to be announced in due course!):
