Speaker

Description

The following Risk Assessment Tools will be presented:

HAZID – Hazard Identification Study

Application: if the process contains new applications or provides new challenges (e.g. plant location)

Purpose: Identify hazards such as fire/explosion, toxic impact, occupational hazards etc. and assess adequate preventive / mitigation measures

HAZOP – Hazard and Operability Study

Application: for all Projects

Purpose: Detailed review of design reflected in the PID to ensure that adequate safeguards are available for all possible process upsets or maloperations.

HAZAN – Hazard Analysis

Application: for all PFHE (plate-fin heat exchangers), CWHE (coil wound heat exchangers) and straight tube sheet heat exchangers

Purpose: detailed analysis of the impact of process upset conditions and start-up / shut down scenarios on the lifetime of the heat exchangers – including definition of additional safeguards, if required.

TQR – Technology Qualification Review

Application: for applications which are new in any manner (process, equipment)

Purpose: Structured analysis of the level of novelty and the technical risk (quantified with risk matrix) including – if required - definition of additional measures to reduce the technical risk to low prior to realisation of the project.
