Hazard Evaluation • Each technique has strengths and weaknesses; • Performing a hazard evaluation without understanding its motivation and without no well-defined purpose is a waste of time and efforts. • Factors that influence the selection of a techniques include: – Motivation for the study – Type of results needed – Type of information available 7

Motivation for the study • Why do we want to do this study? – – – – –

Development of new processes? Improvement of existing process? Extension of an existing process (change)? Decommissioning of a process? Satisfy a regulatory or legal requirement?

• Is information needed to make risk-informed decisions concerning a process?

8

Type of Results Needed • List of hazards • List of potential incident situations • List of alternatives for reducing risk

• Identification of areas needing further study • Input for a quantitative risk analysis

9

Type of Information Available • Available information depends on: – Stage of life the process when the study needs to be done • E.g.: conceptual design of a process: – It is highly unlikely P&ID is already proposed: – E.g. What-If Analysis is more appropriate than HAZOP

– Quality and currentness of documentation. • E.g., for an existing process, if P&IDs are not up-todate: – HAZOP can not be performed – Study may not only futile but a waste of time and resources.

Non-Scenario Based Hazard Evaluation Procedure

SAFETY REVIEWS

14

Purpose • Ensure that the plant and its operating and maintenance practices match the design intent and construction standards: – – – –

Keeps operating personnel alert to the process hazards; Reviews operating procedures for necessary revisions; Seeks to identify equipment or process changes (new hazards); Evaluates the design basis of control systems, instrumented protective systems, and emergency relief systems; – Reviews the application of new technology to existing hazards; – Reviews the adequacy of maintenance and safety inspections.

• Success strongly depends on the experience of the Team 15

Types of Results • Provides qualitative descriptions of potential safety problems and suggested corrective actions. • Report includes: – deviations from the design intentions; – deviations from authorized procedures; – lists of newly discovered safety issues.

16

Resource Requirement • • • • •

Process material safety properties; Applicable codes and standards; Previous safety studies; Detailed plant descriptions (P&IDs and flowcharts); Plant procedures for start-up, shutdown, normal operation, maintenance, and emergencies; • Personnel injury reports / incident reports • Maintenance records (functional checks, PRV tests, vessel inspections)

17

3 steps of a Safety Review • Preparing for the review – Assemble a detailed description of the plant (See resource requirements) – Schedule interviews with specific individuals responsible for safe process operation

• Performing the review – Should start with a general orientation tour of the plant and progress to specific inspections and interviews – Roundtable discussion

• Documenting the results – Report with specific recommended actions. – Justifications the recommendations – Plan for Follow up actions 18

Some questions to be addressed •

Is there a system for keeping important process documentation and drawings up to date?



Is the equipment in good condition?



Are the pressure reliefs or other safety devices properly installed, well-maintained, and properly identified?



Do plant records show the history of inspecting and testing the equipment and safety devices?



Are pressure vessels or critical or hazardous service equipment repaired by certified welders?



For equipment that handles corrosive or erosive materials, have metallurgical inspections and metal-wall-thickness measurements been taken at frequent intervals?



Does the plant have trained inspectors available whose recommendations for repair or replacement are accepted by management?



Are safe work practices followed and permits used? 19

Non-Scenario Based Hazard Evaluation Procedure

CHECKLIST

20

Purpose • Uses a written list of items or procedural steps to verify the status of a system in order to: – Ensure that organizations are complying with standard practices. – Provide a common basis for the review of a hazard assessment – If combined with another hazard evaluation method (WhatIf/Checklist Analysis) can be used to identify Hazards

21

Types of Results • Qualitative results • List of questions which receive the following answers: – – – –

“yes” “no” “not applicable” “needs more information”

• List of possible safety improvement alternatives for managers to consider

22

Resource Requirement • Appropriate checklist: – Based on deficiencies or differences with standard design or operating practices – Checklist prepared from prior experience

Non-Scenario Based Hazard Evaluation Procedure

RANKING METHODS

27

Purpose • Determine the process areas that present the most significant: – hazard of concern – the potential severity of consequences – the overall risk

• Determine the processes that that present significant hazards and require further deeper study. • Compare several process siting, generic design, or equipment layout options, to choose the “best” option. • Should normally be performed early in the life of a process, before the detailed design is completed 28

Ranking Methods • Numerical values that represent the relative level of significance that the analyst gives to each hazard, potential consequence or risk depending on the approach used. • Ordered list of processes, equipment, operations, or activities.

29

Ressource Requirements • Basic physical and chemical data on the substances used in the process or activity. • General process diagrams and equipment layout drawings

• Maximum inventories of materials • Plant’s process conditions • Geographic layout of material storage areas is usually needed.

• Do not normally require detailed process drawing 30

Dow Fire and Explosion Index • Dow Chemicals have developed this method and found it useful. • As part of safety promotion in the process industries, they have made it available to others; • The Dow Fire and Explosion Index (FEI) rates relative hazards of storing, handling, processing flammable and explosive materials

31

Dow Fire and Explosion Index • Breaks the process down into units or sections • Methodology: – Define the material factor – Adjust this with various penalties – Then take credits for safety procedures and safety systems

– Finally arrive at a number that rates the hazard 32

Dow Fire and Explosion Index Material factor

33

Dow Fire and Explosion Index The material factor is a property of the chemicals being handled. Compute for mixtures or use worst value

34

Dow Fire and Explosion Index • Penalties for general process hazards: – Exothermic reactions that might self-heat – Endothermic reactions that could react because of an external heat source such as a fire – Material handling and transfer, including pumping and connection of transfer lines

– Enclosed process units preventing dispersion of escaped vapors – Limited access for emergency equipment

– Poor drainage of flammable materials away from the process unit 35

Dow Fire and Explosion Index Penalties for General Process Hazards Factor (F1)

F1

General Process Hazards Factor

36

Dow Fire and Explosion Index • Penalties for special process hazards: – Toxic materials, which could impede fire fighting – Less than atmospheric pressure operation with a risk of outside air entering – Operation in or near the flammable limits – Dust explosion risks – Higher than atmospheric pressure – Low-temperature operation with potential embrittlement of carbon steel vessels – Quantity of flammable material

Non-Scenario Based Hazard Evaluation Procedure

PRELIMINARY HAZARD ANALYSIS 46

Purpose • Evaluate hazards early in the life of a process. • Applied during the conceptual design or R&D phase of a process plant and can be very useful when making site selection decisions. • Used as a design review tool before a process P&ID is developed.

47

Types of Results • Qualitative description of the hazards related to a process design. • Qualitative ranking of hazardous situations: – Based on the significance of the causes and effects of the incident: • • • •

Hazard Category I Negligible Hazard Category II Marginal Hazard Category III Critical Hazard Category IV Catastrophic

– Can be used to prioritize recommendations for reducing or eliminating hazards in subsequent phases of the life cycle of the process. 48

Resource Requirement • • • • • • •

Available plant design criteria Written description of the conceptual design Equipment specifications Material specifications Basic chemicals, reactions, and process parameters Major types of equipment Other sources of information: – hazard studies of similar facilities – operating experience from similar facilities

49

Some factors to be considered • Hazardous plant equipment and materials – e.g., fuels, highly reactive chemicals, toxic substances, explosives, high pressure systems, and other energy storage systems

• Safety-related interfaces between plant equipment items and materials – Material interactions, fire/explosion initiation and propagation, and instrumented protective systems

• Environmental factors that may influence the plant equipment and materials – earthquake, vibration, flooding, extreme temperatures, electrostatic discharge, and humidity

50

Some factors to be considered • Operating, testing, maintenance, and emergency procedures – human error importance, operator functions to be accomplished, equipment layout/accessibility, and personnel safety protection

• Facility support – storage, testing equipment, training, and utilities

• Safety-related equipment – mitigating systems, redundancy, fire suppression, and personal protective equipment 51

Scenario Based Hazard Evaluation Procedure

WHAT IF ANALYSIS WHAT IF/CHECKLIST 53

Purpose • Unstructured method to identify hazards, hazardous situations, or specific hazard leading to a hazardous situation from a What If Question – Not concerned with “how” failures occur

• Identify possible their consequences • Identify existing safeguards

• Suggests alternatives for risk reduction if possible • Powerful method for a very experienced team. Otherwise elements may be missed. 54

Type of Results • Answers to a list of questions about the process (tabular listing).

55

Resource Requirements • Chemical data, process descriptions, drawings, and operating procedures. • Very flexible method that can be used at any stage of the life cycle of a process; – Available information depends on the life cycle phase

• Can be used even with limited process information and knowledge; • Preliminary questions should be developed to start of the discussion 56

Example of "What-If" • Question: – What if the raw material is the wrong concentration?

• Answer: – If the concentration of the acid could be doubled, the reaction could not be controlled and a rapid exotherm would result.

• Recommendation: – Install emergency shut-down device – Install emergency relief system – or take special precautions when loading the raw material • Place a valve on the line just before the reactor, that way the inlet flow can be controlled 57

Example of "What-If"

58

What If/Checklist • Hybrid method combines the advantages of both methods What-If and Checklist • Advantages Checklist part of the method: – Built from experience of people – Avoid missing known hazards – Gives a systematic nature to the analysis

• Advantages What-If Analysis part of the method : – Allows creativity and brainstorming beyond the experience of the assessing team

• This technique is very effective and popular • Often used as a first hazard evaluation on a process (precursor for more detailed studies). 59

FAILURE MODES AND EFFECTS ANALYSIS (FMEA) 90

Purpose • Failure Modes and Effects Analysis (FMEA) identifies : – How single equipment can fail (or be improperly operated) • open, closed, on, off, leaks, etc • E.g. for pump: Fails to stop when required, Stops when required to run, Seal leak/rupture, Pump casing leak/rupture

– How each failure mode’s affects the system or plant: • Determines the effect (E) of the failure mode (FM) by the system’s response to the equipment failure

•  Generates recommendations for increasing equipment reliability (improving process safety) 91

Type of Results • FMEA generates a qualitative, systematic reference list of equipment, failure modes and effects. • A worst-case estimate of consequences resulting from single failures is included. • But: – Rarely investigates damage or injury that could arise – Not useful for identifying combinations of failures

92

Resource Requirements • System or plant equipment list or P&ID • Knowledge of equipment function and failure modes • Knowledge of system and responses to equipment failures • Staff requirements will vary with the size and complexity of equipment
