TWO ASPECTS OF SAFETY There are two aspects of safety • Process Safety • Personal Safety
Process Safety: Process safety hazards can give rise to major accidents involving the release of potentially flammable, reactive, explosive or toxic materials, the release of energy (such as fires and explosions), or both. These are events that have the potential to lead to multiple fatalities and/or major environmental damage. Process safety management ensures there are Adequate Barriers to MAE’s.
Personal Safety: Incidents that have the potential to injure one person and generally occur due to individual work habits. Occupational incidents – slips/trips/falls, struck-by incidents, physical strains, electrocution. Generally OHS are avoided by wearing PPEs & following procedures.
An effective personal safety management system DOES NOT prevent major accidents events!

RISK MANAGEMENT • Just like in industrial investment, risk management is a project requiring resources and resulting in a Return of Investment being the avoidance of loss and the improved reliability/operability of process units Risk Management required:
But there are some constraints…
• To make a safe and reliable plant
• Budget limitations
• No accidents with damage to people or assets
• Lack of resources • Time constraints
• No spills with damage to environment
• Lack of knowledge
• No business interruption accidents
• Lack of information 20
WHY IS RISK MANAGEMENT REQUIRED ?
• Accidents can often be avoided by sound risk management • Studies have proven that the confidence of the stakeholders is proportional to their belief in the companies capability to manage the risks • Ignorance is not tolerated anymore as « just another point of view » • Risk management is a legal obligation • For pure economical reasons : managing risk = managing a profitable and sustainable business 21
WHY DO WE SOMETIMES AVOID RISK MANAGEMENT
• Risk Management can be frustrating: – Uncertainty is inherent to risk. Risk Management is management of uncertainties. Investing in risk management does not guarantee that no accidents will happen. – If no accidents happen the efforts will be seen as a waste of time and money. It is only when the accident happens that it becomes obvious how you could have avoided it.
• In particular when you will remain in place for a short period of time it is attractive to take the risk and to boost the short term financial profits.

INHERENT DESIGN FEATURES + SAFETY CRITICAL ELEMENTS 35 (Layout, Structural Integrity) (Procedures, Equipment, Tasks)
HAZARD IDENTIFICATION – LAYOUT 1 The objectives of “layout design” are: • Segregation of different risks; • To permit access for firefighting and emergency services; • To minimize involvement of adjacent facilities in a fire and hence prevent further equipment failures; • To ensure that critical emergency facilities are not subjected to fire damage; • To minimize vulnerable pipework; • To limit exposure; • To ensure safe control room design; • To ensure security. The following topics should be considered in early plot layout: • Location of process areas and storage areas • Location of people and minimization of potential exposure • Site roads and traffic • Congestion (e.g. overlapping hazard zones, difficult access, possible confinement of vapour release, etc.); • TLocation of control rooms, offices and other permanent and temporary buildings; • Drainage and containment, Effluents, sewers • Fire fighting including fire breaks in process areas and access for fire fighting • Emergency • Security
36
HAZARD IDENTIFICATION – LAYOUT 2 Layout Review Brownfield Projects
Considering layout and escape routes, access to Equipment, also ensuring the hazardous area zoning of the platform is not compromised
37
HAZARD IDENTIFICATION – LAYOUT 3 Hazard Identification - Layout Review Greenfield Projects For Greenfield projects layout is a bit easier as you are starting with a clean sheet. Layout must prevent fires and explosions in areas with hydrocarbons (process area, risers etc) escalating to less hazardous and safe areas Create a “safety gradient” on the topsides layout from “safe” areas (accommodation) through to areas with maximum hydrocarbon “risk” by distance As much as possible (large) liquid hydrocarbon containing vessels should be located at lower elevations, HP gas equipment at upper levels. Reduce the probability of flammable gas build-up and the increased likelihood of an explosion Prevent escalation of fires and explosions 38

Relief valves and rupture disks are part of an emergency pressure relief system. Its design must not only prevent equipment overpressure, it must also make certain that material discharged does not lead to personnel injury. The system needs to ensure that there is no fire, explosion, or toxic material exposure hazard from the material released through a relief valve or rupture disk. Plant modifications include new platforms, vessels, piping and a variety of other additions. Potential exposure to effluent from existing and new pressure relief devices must be included in your management of change process. Drain, vent and sample valves from equipment or piping as well as vessel overflows can have similar hazards. Any material which could be released from process equipment, including pressure relief valves or rupture disks, must discharge to a safe location. Any open pipe has the potential for an unexpected discharge. The release could occur for a variety of reasons and will often be a surprise Use extra caution when working around them – expect the unexpected !

HAZARD ASSESSMENT – CONSEQUENCE ANAL. 12 SUMMARY OF CONSEQUENCE ANALYSIS OUTCOMES
54
HAZARD ASSESSMENT – FLARE RADIATION 1 Flare height determines the radiation levels on the platform and this has to be considered in the design. •Minimise atmospheric emissions. •Dispersion of hydrocarbon and toxic gases from an unignited flare. •The impact of heat radiation on equipment and personnel. •The potential for liquid carry-over to the flare. •Integrity of the flare system seal/purge arrangements. Also consider crane driver in the crane cab offshore When new equipment is placed offshore you have to consider the effect of the flare on new equipment.
55
HAZARD ASSESSMENT – FLARE RADIATION 2 A flaring event is normally unplanned and likely to happen during a process upset. Heat radiation on various parts of the platform have to be calculated for the worst case flow rate to ensure that personnel will be expose to high temperatures and result in injuries.
56
HAZARD ASSESSMENT – SHIP IMPACT STUDY Offshore platforms are located around shipping lanes and therefore in designing the platforms/ FPSO you ought to consider what will happen if it is impacted by a ship. You cant design for every scenario, but you can determine which member can result in total collapse of platform and perhaps strengthen them for anticipated loads . You can also provide ship impact protection for the platform legs. Risers should also be protected ideally you don't want to offload cargo where the risers are.
57
HAZARD ASSESSMENT - LOPA • LOPA( Layers of Protection Analysis) is a tool to determine the SIL (Safety Integrity Level) of a SIF( Safety Instrumented Function) and evaluates the other protection layers individually by looking at the risk mitigation they lead to. Any layer of protection could be small, or significant, but overall the total risk reduction strategy should deliver an acceptable risk. • Independent Protection Layers are often depicted as an onion skin. • Each layer is independent in terms of operation. • The failure of one layer does not affect the next. • Designed to prevent the hazardous event, or mitigate the consequences of the event.
58
HAZARD ASSESSMENT – SIS 1 What is a Safety Instrumented System (SIS) & Safety Instrumented Function (SIF) ?
Process
A SIS have several Safety Instrumented Functions to mitigate several process hazards. SIF is a Safety Instrumented Function with a specified Safety Integrity Level which is necessary to achieve functional safety. SIF is a function to be implemented by a SIS which is intended to automatically achieve or maintain a safe state for the process with respect to a specific hazardous event.” (IEC61511 ISA SP 84.01)

END OF MORNING SESSION DAY 2 We have looked at Hazard Assessment focusing on quantitative risk assessment, layers of protection analysis, dropped object studies, consequence modeling, ship impact studies, escape and rescue and Flare radiation modeling
68
HAZARD MITIGATION – FIRE & GAS DETECTION 1 Fire and gas detection is required to Safeguard Life and Property. •
Provide Early Warning of Hazardous Conditions.
•
Provide Opportunity for Evacuation and Notification from Re-entry
•
Provide Time for Intervention and Correction.
•
Trigger Facility Protection Systems i.e. Ventilation, Water Mist, Fire Suppression
69
HAZARD MITIGATION – FIRE & GAS DETECTION 2 Provide rapid and reliable indication of the occurrence of a hazardous event involving fire and/or loss of containment of flammable or toxic inventories to : •
Emergency Shutdown (ESD 1) of affected Fire Zone ( on confirmed gas detection or fire detection )
•
Initiate Alarms
•
Trigger emergency isolation and depressurisation of hydrocarbon inventories
•
Initiate fire water deluge system (fire, sometimes toxic or flammable gas)
•
Initiate CO2 or INERGEN or FMC 200 fixed fire extinguishing systems
•
Trip power generation and electrical equipment
•
Increase ventilation in enclosures
•
Close dampers in HVAC air intakes
70
HAZARD MITIGATION – FIRE & GAS DETECTION 3 Types of detectors • Smoke Detectors (Optical/ Ionisation) • Heat Detectors ( FT/ RoR) • Flame Detectors (UV/ UVIR/ IR/IR2/IR3) • Hydrocarbon Gas Leak Detectors ( Line of sight , ultrasonic) • Toxic Gas Detectors • Open Path Gas leak Detectors • VESDA The use of fire and gas mapping to ensure coverage is adequate
71
HAZARD MITIGATION – FIRE & GAS DETECTION 4 For gas detectors - sensors should be placed as close as possible to potential leak sources. – Seals and flanges, fittings and welds – Expansion joints and gaskets – Engine combustion – Storage, loading and unloading areas – Runoff areas For flame detectors -there are various types and the type of detector determines the position
72
HAZARD MITIGATION – FIRE PROTECTION 1 Active fire protection objectives are achieved by reduction of the fire effects through: •cooling of the hydrocarbon equipment •shielding against radiation •fire suppression Active fire protection is activated: •By Fire and Gas detection logic (automatically) •manually (local and remote) Active fire protection ( fire pumps, ringmain, deluge valves and nozzles). Type of protection depends on required duty – this may be to extinguish the fire, control the fire or provide exposure protection. 73
HAZARD MITIGATION – FIRE PROTECTION 2 Types of AFP include: •water deluge • foam •water mist / steam •dry powder •inert gas (Inergen), CO2

HAZARD MITIGATION – FIRE PROTECTION 1 Types include: •water deluge • foam •water mist / steam •dry powder •inert gas (Inergen), CO2 Carbon dioxide supply Carbon Dioxide is a colourless, odourless, electrically non conductive inert gas agent for extinguishing fire CO2 extinguishes fire by lowering the concentrations of oxygen in air to the point where combustion stops CO2 being dangerous to personnel, it should be used in unoccupied spaces Foam extinguishes fire in four ways: Smothering fire and preventing air from mixing with flammable vapours Control and reduction of flammable gas release Separating flames from fuel surface Providing some cooling effect for fuel and adjacent metal surfaces
75
HAZARD MITIGATION – FIRE PROTECTION 3 Passive fire protection -Fireproofing to prevent failure of structures and equipments. Coating applied to the wall of vessel (mineral or organic-based). Resist to flames and slow down heat transfer to the wall ( fire walls, chartek, blast wall, fire blankets) Design for blast – possible explosion overpressure

HAZARD MITIGATION – EMERGENCY SHUTDOWN 1 Emergency shutdown system contains different levels (process, emergency, fire & gas and if required ultimate safety system), each of them consisting in a set of safety loops. Safety loops consist of field sensors, logic solvers and final elements (e.g. valves). The main purposes of ESD systems are:
To limit the loss of containment, by isolating hydrocarbon production and processing.
To protect personnel, e.g. smoke and gas detection in the HVAC intakes of Buildings.
To prevent ignition by elimination of potential sources of ignition.
To reduce flammable or toxic inventory by depressurisation through the EDP system.
ESD system shall take into account the requirements that may arise during other possible (and likely to occur) abnormal or down-graded configurations. New hazards can appear as a consequence of the loss of essential utilities such as essential power, air, hydraulics, etc. These new hazards shall be identified, mitigated ad the associated risks shall be assessed.
77
HAZARD MITIGATION – EMERGENCY SHUTDOWN 2 In the event of a process upset that can lead to loss of containment or hydrocarbon leak we need to shutdown the process unit and sometimes the platform immediately so the event does not escalate to other areas of the Platform.
78
HAZARD MITIGATION – OVERPRESSURE Most of the plant is pressurised so what happens during an over pressure event. Design of relief disposal dependent on relief requirements (e.g. fire, overpressure by gas , overfilling by liquid, reaction runaway). Relief devices are installed and during an overpressure event they open and allow the gas to go to the flare thus preventing over pressure of equipment. Process engineers have to size these devices for the equipment they are protecting.
A flare or vent system consists of: • Relieving devices in the Process systems (PSV, BDV, Bursting discs,…) •Headers for collection of relieved effluents •Knock out (KO) Drum to segregate gas and liquid phases •Sealing devices to prevent air ingress (purge gas, seals) or Designed to •Sustain internal explosion •Disposal devices for the gas and liquid (Flare tip, liquid burners, burn pit,…) 79
HAZARD MITIGATION – OVERPRESSURE RELIEVING DEVICES •Relief valves •Rupture disk •Explosion vents, hatches, or panels •Pressure/vacuum relief valves •Open vent pipe (cannot be blocked off) •Floating roof, lifter roof or weak roof-to-shell seam (atmospheric tanks) •Self-closing manhole cover or weak gauge hatch •Hydraulic accumulators (liquid thermal expansion relief only)
80
HAZARD MITIGATION – UNDERPRESSURE Flare safety precautions should include: •Use of a automatic flame monitoring device to warn of flameout conditions. •Provision of a liquid knock out (KO) drum, which is equipped with high level alarms to •Warn of an excessive accumulation of liquid. •Prevention of the introduction vapors into the system when it is not operational.
81
HAZARD MITIGATION – DRAINAGE 1 Function Of Drainage Systems SAFETY • Minimise uncontrolled spillage • Minimise the risk of ignition (evacuation of flammable liquids away from ignition sources) • Prevent escalation of a fire across the installation (containment and evacuation of flammable liquids) ENVIRONMENT • Minimise direct discharge of polluted streams by channelling treatment units
to appropriate
Key Features For Safety Of Drainage • Architecture of network to prevent cross-contamination • Gas seals and fire breaks to prevent migration Closed Drains Are Connected To: • Hydrocarbon equipment under PRESSURE • Equipment handling TOXIC fluids (intentional release to atmosphere not acceptable) 82
Open drains are ATMOSPHERIC systems
HAZARD MITIGATION – DRAINAGE 2 Potential Hazards in drainage systems • Spread of gas and fire (transmission of explosive atm near ignition sources) • Over pressurisation (blockage, RPT, drainage under excess pressure, gas blow-by..) • Vacuum • Cross contamination • Overflow • Higher corrosion rates • Confined space entry, heavy gas accumulation in drum pits Main causes • Poor Design • Mal-operation • Inadequate segregation • Less interest than other process systems and profitable production systems
83
HAZARD MITIGATION – DRAINAGE 3 DIKING AND BUNDING Tank needs to be surrounded by a bund wall or dike in order to prevent uncontrolled liquid spillage. A bund is an embankment or wall of brick, stone, concrete or other impervious material, which forms the perimeter and floor of a compound and provides a barrier to retain liquid. Since the bund is the main part of a spill containment system, he whole system (or bunded area) is colloquially referred to as the ‘bund’. Bunds should be designed to contain spillages and leaks of liquids used, stored or processed above ground and to facilitate clean-up operations. As well as being used to prevent pollution of the receiving environment, bunds are also used for fire protection, product recovery and process Isolation. Containment pool is deemed counter-productive since a potential pool fire resulting from one single tank Failure will also be affecting all the other intact tanks installed inside the pool (risk of BLEVE). This hazard should be avoided by installation of a spillage collection system directing any leakages to a safe location away from where a bullet farm is located.
84
HAZARD MITIGATION – IGNITION CONTROL 1 Due to the flammable nature of oil and gas ignition control is very important because if there is no ignition source there will be no explosion or fires. Precautions: > Avoiding flammable substances (replacement technologies) > Inerting (addition of nitrogen, carbon dioxide etc.) > Limitation of the concentration by means of ventilation
Ignition sources identification: Apparatus which, separately or jointly, are intended for the generation, conversion of energy capable of causing an explosion through their own potential sources of ignition
Measures to limit the effect of explosions to a safe degree: > Explosion pressure resistant construction > Explosion relief devices > Explosion suppression by means of extinguishers, deluge, etc
85
HAZARD MITIGATION – IGNITION CONTROL 2 According to Standard EN 1127-1, 13 types of ignition sources : •Hot surfaces •Flames & hot gases •Mechanically generated sparks •Electrical apparatus •Stray electrical currents, Cathode corrosion protection •Static electricity •Lightning •Electromagnetic fields •Electromagnetic radiation •Ionising radiation •Ultrasonic •Adiabatic compression, shock waves, gas flows •Chemical reactions
When handling a number of different flammable fluids, classification to be based on the most volatile fluid anticipated.
Keep in mind that it does not address scenarios of major releases under catastrophic failures (ex rupture of a pressure vessel), but do not forget scenarios of operation and maintenance of equipment.
Do not forget drain traps on process decks (potential Zones 0 & 1).
Reduce risks through design improvements by reducing release sources, by grouping equipment and by optimizing ventilation.
Avoid non hazardous area surrounded by hazardous areas (unless ventilation protected enclosure).
Once minimum extent is determined, utilize distinct landmarks for the actual boundaries, to permit easy identification by operators.

HAZARD MITIGATION – HAZ. AREA CLASSIF. 1 Hazardous Area Classification Reduce to an acceptable level the probability of coincidence of a flammable atmosphere and an ignition source, by means of: • Segregation of hydrocarbon sources and ignition sources, •Selection of equipment with the potential to cause ignition: Zone 0. In which ignitable concentrations of flammable gases or vapours are present continuously, or in which ignitable concentrations of flammable gases or vapours are present for long periods of time. • Zone 1. In which ignitable concentrations of flammable gases or vapours are likely to exist under normal operating conditions. (for a full definition refer to API RP 505). • Zone 2. In which ignitable concentrations of flammable gases or vapours are not likely to occur in normal operation, and if they do occur will exist only for a short period (for a full definition refer to API RP 505).

HAZARD MITIGATION – HVAC & VENTILATION 1 HVAC unit usually is placed between the helideck and the roof of the quarters for offshore units. The living quarters and electrical switch rooms also requires a ventilation system , in the event of a gas release or fire the HVAC damper shut off preventing gas ingress. Note normally you will have fire and gas detectors at HVAC inlets to detect gas and shutdown damper especially if HVAC inlet is in close proximity to the process area.
91
HAZARD MITIGATION – HVAC & VENTILATION 2
Adequate ventilation = open area : At least 12 air changes/hr with no stagnant areas. Ventilation air can be taken from a nonhazardous area, or an external Zone 2 area, but must not be drawn from either Zone 0 or Zone 1 area.
Dilution ventilation (of enclosed areas) : Ventilation at such a rate that the probability of formation of a flammable atmosphere is so low that the area can be considered nonhazardous (i.e. gas concentration < 20% LFL).

HAZARD MITIGATION -SAFETY CRITICAL ELEMENT 1
SCEs are the principal elements constituting the barriers They can relate to equipment, processes or people SCEs shall be managed so as to provide the positive assurance that they are effectively operable on demand, they perform as expected and they have some capacity to survive incidents. Safety Critical Elements (SCE) are any part of the installation or plant: whose failure will either cause or contribute to a major accident the purpose of which is to prevent or limit the effect of a major accident »
93
HAZARD MITIGATION -SAFETY CRITICAL ELEMENT 2 SCE’s should have performance standards – PS Description – Identifies System, linkage to MAE/Bow-Tie, Scope (Individual SCE’s e.g. Shut Down Valves) and PS Goal (e.g. Isolation of Hydrocarbons). – Function – Performance Standard (Isolation of Hydrocarbons), Performance Criteria (e.g. Leakage Criteria or closure time referenced against a standard) & Assurance Task (e.g. Valve Function & Leak Test) via maintenance activities (e.g. AMOS, maximo, SAP) to help demonstrate that the critical systems achieve the performance standard with the required reliability throughout their life of service. – Reliability/Availability, Survivability & Interdependency – Level of performance (e.g. ESDV should achieve 100% reliability/availability of service) and interdependency (e.g. ESDV links with ESD system).

WHY HAVE A SAFETY CASE •
Major Industrial Disasters – Flixborough, UK, 1974 – Explosion 28 workers killed (happened on a weekend so plant was minimal manned) – Piper Alpha – 167 killed in 1988 – Clapham Junction Rail disaster (35 fatalities) – Phillips 66 Texas
All disasters above had Common Findings & Recommendations
Conclusion : Prescriptive approach not appropriate- move to a goal based approach, described in a “Safety Case”. Prescriptive regime does not require identification and understanding of hazards. Involve workforce awareness of hazard management.

SAFETY CRITICAL MEASURES
• Safety Critical Measures are items such as procedures, equipment, instrumentation or any other assets that are vital or critical in the loss prevention strategy of an industrial site. • Safety Critical Measures will interrupt the propagation or will lower the probability of the propagation of an initiating event (accident cause) to unwanted consequences (major accident)[1] • Multiple Safety Critical Measures can be taken to reduce the risk of a specific accident scenario • The identification of Safety Critical Measures is done using systematic and structured risk based brainstorming techniques (see Section 2 on Hazard Identification) • Safety Critical Measures can be active[2] or passive[3] systems
