Process & Process Safety Engineer
Hi, I'm
Sayyida Prudhum-Ali
I help offshore and onshore operations run safely, stay compliant, and keep producing.
For more than 15 years I've led the studies and decisions that keep complex plants inside their limits — HAZOP and LOPA, relief and overpressure protection, alarm management, and the incident learning that stops problems coming back. Today I do much of that work remotely, with teams anywhere in the world.

What I do
I work at the point where production meets protection. A few of the things I am known for:
- 01
Find the hazards first
HAZOP, LOPA and risk assessments that turn complex process risk into clear, ranked actions a team can actually close out.
- 02
Keep protection honest
Relief and overpressure studies, PSV sizing and registers — so the safeguards meant to catch a bad day actually will.
- 03
Cut the noise for operators
Alarm management that gives the control room fewer, clearer signals, so attention lands where it matters most.
- 04
Learn once, fix for good
Incident investigation and change control that bake lessons into setpoints, procedures and barriers so issues do not repeat.
Where I'm often asked to help
HAZOP & LOPA, facilitated independently
When a study is overdue, or the safeguards need a fresh, independent challenge.
How I'd help Overpressure protectionPressure relief & overpressure, reviewed
When relief sizing, registers or PSV verification need to stand up to scrutiny.

What are you
wrestling with?
An overdue revalidation, an alarm flood, a relief-sizing question you want a second opinion on — or something that does not fit neatly in a box. Tell me a little about it and I'll come back to you personally.
