About this episode
The episode discusses a tragic incident at the BP Husky Toledo refinery that resulted in the loss of two operators due to management failures.
On the 20th of September, 2022 at the BP Husky Toledo refinery in Ohio, a level transmitter change out from a month prior triggered a chain of events that would cost two operators their lives. We look at how poor Management of Change, high alarm rates and a resistance to stopping the job, let a plant upset turn into a disaster.
