In this episode, Rob and Magi discuss the recently released Safe Work Practice from the Center for Chemical Process Safety (CCPS) about Simultaneous Operations (SIMOPS) for offshore and operating plants.  SIMOPS are defined as "two or more different activities occurring at the same time that are close enough to interfere with each other and transfer risk or performance implications."  They discuss a few incidents where SIMOPS played a tragic part, as well as how CCPS recommends that facilities improve management of the inherent risk of SIMOPS.
