Topic: Managing New Technology Risk- A DNV GL Technology Qualification (TQ) Process
New concepts and technology are vital for any industry to meet ever more challenging requirements for process and production. However, when new technology is deployed, whether with novel equipment or standard equipment in novel applications, it is critical to build confidence in its safety and reliability before implementation.
Given that current industry standards and codes might not address all potential modes of failure for new technologies, a systematic technology qualification process can be used to identify and mitigate any potential threats. This seminar provides insights on:
- Overview of the widely-accepted Technology Qualification (TQ) methodology in the Oil & Gas industry i.e. DNV RP A203.
- Benefits of the Technology Qualification (TQ) Certificate
- Understand of how we can employ technology qualification process to help the equipment vendor get their product ready for extreme applications associated with higher risks.
