ABB Engineering Services carried out an initial status review of the arrangements for managing process safety at 8 sites, representing a cross-section of the company’s operations. The findings from the review have been used to define and shape the strategy for improving process safety management arrangements.
ABB is continuing to provide expert advice to Corus during the implementation of the strategy.
