Enhanced with new sections on human factors, case studies for modeling fire accidents and a look at recent events that have further shaped the safety and testing of fire pumps, the book provides the engineer and manager with a critical oil and gas resource for every aspect of firewater pumps.
- Remains the go-to reference for loss prevention specialists and fire engineering specific to the oil and gas industry
- Enhanced with new sections on quality audits and new case studies that evaluate operational issues and applications
- Fills in the practical hands-on information gap not covered in the regulatory standards
