DNV Phast CFD Workshop 2026 - Kuala Lumpur

Unlock the Next Generation of Consequence Modelling

As industrial facilities become more complex, so do the challenges of understanding and managing process safety risks. Traditional empirical models often struggle to accurately represent the influence of complex plant layouts, 3D geometries and terrain on gas dispersion and fire behaviour.

Join DNV for an exclusive Phast CFD Workshop and discover how advanced Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) technology is transforming consequence modelling.

For over 40 years, Phast has been the industry's leading consequence modelling software, trusted by more than 1,500 organizations worldwide across oil and gas, LNG, LPG, petrochemicals, chemicals, pharmaceuticals, and emerging energy sectors including hydrogen, ammonia, and carbon capture and storage (CCS). Building on this proven foundation, Phast CFD delivers enhanced modelling capabilities for complex scenarios where greater accuracy and insight are required.

What You Will Learn

In this interactive one-day workshop, participants will:

  • Explore the capabilities and applications of Phast CFD
  • Understand when CFD modelling adds value beyond traditional consequence modelling approaches
  • Learn how to model gas dispersion and fire scenarios in complex environments
  • Assess the impact of buildings, equipment congestion, and terrain on hazard outcomes
  • Visualize concentration, temperature, and thermal radiation profiles in greater detail
  • Gain practical experience through hands-on exercises based on real industry case studies

Why Attend?

Phast CFD enables safety professionals to better understand risk in complex environments, leading to more informed engineering decisions, improved facility design, and enhanced risk management. Whether you are involved in process safety, quantitative risk assessment, facility design, or operational safety, this workshop will provide valuable insights into the latest advances in consequence modelling.

Registration

The workshop is exclusive for Petronas companies and subsidiaries. Seats are limited due to venue capacity.

Registration closes on 14 October 2026.
