After extensive internal and external independent audits, Exida has renewed the Functional Safety Management and Engineering systems of Hero Engineering to May 1, 2022. The Certification reconfirms our SIL 3 capability in compliance to AS/NZS 61508:2010 underpinning our extensive FS works in process and machinery safety. Hero Engineering has been a Certified Functional Safety Management company since 2013.
Hero Engineering worked closely with Woodside and Siemens Perth on planning, implementation and testing of the OKHA Siemens PCS7 Integrated Control and Safety System (ICSS), Compressor Control and Boiler Control Systems offshore. The upgrade involved removal of all hazards from the Topside and Marine operations together with identifying the necessary measures required to safely remove the Safety System , Fire and Gas System and Main Control System coverage during the cut-over process. The ICSS version cut-over was performed in less than an hour due to meticulous migration planning and pre-work, including a 100% FAT on staged simulation systems.
Hero Engineering is certified by exida, an accredited global functional safety certification company specialising in safety critical / high availability automation systems and control system security. Our Functional Safety Management Engineering Services are certified Safety Integrity Level (SIL) 3 in accordance to AS/IEC 61508 standards.
