Abstract

This is Trevor Kletz's follow up to his extremely successful What Went Wrong? Case Histories of Process Plant Disasters. In it, Kletz reinforces the messages in his now-classic book of famous case histories, but the majority of the book covers points not covered in the original. This new volume will focus more on procedural changes that can be made, not only at the technical or engineering levels, but at the managerial level, to prevent disasters from happening.
* This volume follows up on the cases and strategies outlined in the original million-dollar seller: "What Went Wrong"
* Contains many new cases and areas for improvement, including the hazards of rust, corrosion, and many more new topics
* Written by the world's leading expert on industrial safety
Without a doubt I recommend this book for anyone involved with management, design, operation, health and safety, or maintenance, in the process industries. - Nick Spencer (General Manager and Director, ConocoPhillips Ltd Humber Refinery, UK)
...should be read not only by those who design but also by those who operate process plant of any form. -- Industrial Safety Management, April 2004
Still Going Wrong is an immensely readable book and one that I would recommend to all personnel with an interest in safety.

This book is an excellent compilation of case histories of process plant accidents and discussions of how they could have been avoided. It imparts much useful and practical information, which could lead to avoidance or minimization of costly accidents, both with respect to property and human life loss.

“Mr. Kletz provides the insight that can help you delve into these issues, and provides materials that help you learn from others’ mistakes.
