Scope Of Services
With the progress of science and technology, the production of chemical, petroleum, energy and other enterprises have shifted to the development of scale maximization, capital centralization and control automation. This progress also increases the risk of accidents occurring and more damaging consequences. Accidents in these industries may result in consequences such as:
·Fatalities.
·Injuries.
·Pollution.
·Loss of revenue.
·Loss of reputation, etc.
QRA is a systematic approach to the estimating of likelihood and consequences of hazardous accidents and is widely adopted in the process industry. It is a method of risk assessment which combines qualitative analysis and quantitative calculation.
Crude oil, natural gas, LNG, gas processing and export, hydrocarbon pipeline, oil refining, pharmaceutical plant, coal chemical processing, fertilizer and agriculture chemical processing, chemical refining, etc.
QRA can be applied in various stages of a project from FEED to operational phase. Typically, projects will begin development of QRA study in FEED and update it throughout the project life.
A number of outputs can be derived from a QRA study such as the following:
·Personnel injury risk assessment.
·Risk assessment for personnel and social risk.
·Potential loss of life (PLL).
·Assessment on potential economic loss and environmental impacts.
·Identification and assessment current safety measures (preventive & mitigation).
·Minimum distance required from accident to achieve ALARP include external boundary distance.
