Fault Tree Analysis (FTA)

Fault Tree Analysis (FTA)

The Fault Tree Analysis (FTA) program equips professionals with the knowledge and practical skills to systematically analyze how combinations of failures can lead to critical events. Delivered by BGMC and CPD Certified, this course focuses on logical modeling, root cause identification, and risk quantification—supporting safer design, reliable operations, and informed decision-making across high-risk environments.

Why Fault Tree Analysis Matters?

Fault Tree Analysis

This program blends analytical methods with real-world application:

1. Introduction to Event Tree Analysis

  • Purpose and principles of ETA

  • Difference between ETA and Fault Tree Analysis (FTA)

  • Proactive vs reactive risk assessment

  • Applications across safety, quality, and reliability

2. Initiating Events & System Response

  • Identifying initiating events

  • Understanding system responses and safety functions

  • Success and failure paths

  • Modeling conditional probabilities

3. Safety Barriers & Control Effectiveness

  • Preventive vs mitigative barriers

  • Human, technical, and organizational controls

  • Barrier independence and reliability

Evaluating control performance

4. Building & Interpreting Event Trees

  • Step-by-step construction of event trees

  • Qualitative and semi-quantitative analysis

  • Identifying high-risk pathways

  • Prioritizing risk reduction actions

5. Using ETA for Decision-Making

  • Supporting design and operational decisions

  • Linking ETA to HAZOP, Bow-Tie, and risk registers

  • Applying ETA to incident investigation and learning

  • Documenting and communicating results

This course is ideal for:

  • HSE & Process Safety Professionals

  • Risk Engineers & Safety Analysts

  • Operations, Maintenance & Engineering Managers

  • Project Managers & Design Engineers

  • Incident Investigators & RCA Specialists

  • Consultants supporting risk and safety studies

Basic knowledge of risk assessment or safety management is helpful but not mandatory.

1. Practical Case-Based Learning

Participants build event trees from real industrial scenarios, not theoretical examples.

2. Barrier-Based Safety Thinking

ETA is positioned as a barrier management and escalation prevention tool, aligned with modern safety practices.

3. Industry-Relevant Applications

Examples tailored for oil & gas, chemical processing, construction, utilities, manufacturing, and logistics.

4. Flexible Delivery Models

  • Classroom (in-person)

  • Live virtual instructor-led

  • In-house corporate programs
