About the Authors

Faisal I. Khan is a Chemical Engineering Professor and Director of the Mary Kay O'Connor Process Safety Center and the Ocean Energy Safety Institute (OESI), Texas A&M University. He is the founder of the Centre for Risk Integrity and Safety Engineering (C-RISE), a Fellow of the Canadian Academy of Engineering, the Engineering Institute of Canada, and the Canadian Society of Chemical Engineering. His areas of research interest include offshore safety and risk engineering, inherent safety, risk management, and risk-based integrity assessment and management. Dr. Khan is actively involved with multinational oil and gas industries in addressing safety and asset integrity issues. He also served as the Safety and Risk Advisor to the Government of Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada. He continues to serve as a subject matter expert to many organizations, including Lloyd's Register EMEA, SBM Modco, Intecsea, Technip, and Qatar Gas. He served as a Visiting Professor of Offshore and Marine Engineering at the Australian Maritime College (AMC), University of Tasmania, Australia, where he led the development of the offshore safety and risk engineering group and initiated global engagements with numerous international institutions.

Dr. Khan is the recipient of the President's Outstanding Research Award of 2012–13 at Memorial University, the President's Outstanding Research Supervision Award of 2013–14 at Memorial University, the CSChE National Award on Process Safety Management of 2014, and the Society of Petroleum Engineers award for his contribution to Health, Safety, and Risk Engineering. He has authored over 500 research articles in peer-reviewed journals and conferences on safety, risk, and reliability engineering. He has authored five books on the subject area. He is the Editor of the Journal of Process Safety and Environmental Protection, Safety in Extreme Environment, and ASME Part A (Risk and Uncertainty Analysis). He regularly offers training programs/workshops on safety and risk engineering in various locations, including St. John's, Chennai, Dubai, Beijing, Aberdeen, Cape Town, Doha, and Kuala Lumpur.

Stratos Pistikopoulos holds a PhD in Chemical Engineering, from Carnegie Mellon University, USA. The objective of his research program is to develop fundamental theory and optimization based methodologies and computational tools that enable process engineers to analyze, design and evaluate process manufacturing systems which are economically attractive, energy efficient and environmentally benign, while at the same time exhibit good performance characteristics like flexibility, controllability, robustness, reliability and safety.

Zaman Sajid is a Senior Research Engineer at the Mary Kay O'Connor Process Safety Center in the Artie McFerrin Department of Chemical Engineering at Texas A&M University, where he is also affiliated with the Ocean Energy Safety Institute (OESI). He also serves as a Visiting Assistant Professor at the Texas A&M Energy Institute. His career reflects a strong commitment to safety, sustainability, and innovation in the chemical and process industries. He holds a Ph.D. in Process Engineering from Memorial University (Canada), an M.S. in Chemical and Process Engineering from the University of Strathclyde (United Kingdom), and an MBA in Sustainable Management from Anaheim University (United States), demonstrating both technical expertise and managerial acumen. With over a decade of research and teaching experience, Dr. Sajid specializes in systems analysis, process safety, and environmental risk assessment. His work integrates data-driven methods, artificial intelligence, and risk-based approaches to enhance the safety, resilience, and sustainability of chemical processing and energy systems. Drawing on his experience at the Ocean Frontier Institute (Canada), he plays a key role in managing the $52 million federally funded OESI program, which advances U.S. offshore energy safety. He also leads interdisciplinary projects addressing challenges in renewable energy, system safety, and advanced process technologies, emphasizing both economic and environmental advancements for the U.S. economy.

Dr. Sajid is an active researcher and leader who has published extensively in high-impact journals and presented at international conferences. He serves as a peer reviewer for leading journals and as a technical reviewer for the U.S. National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine's Gulf Research Program (GRP), the U.S. National Science Foundation (NSF), and international organizations, including Research Manitoba, Canada. He is a member of the U.S. AI Safety Institute Consortium. He serves on the editorial boards of Frontiers in Environmental Engineering, ChemEngineering, and the International Journal of AI for Materials and Design. Additionally, he is the editor of Methods in Chemical Process Safety, Volume 8. Through his research, leadership, and professional service, Dr. Sajid continues to advance innovation, safety, and sustainability in the U.S. chemical and process industries.
