Description:

Risk assessment has come of age in the last ten years. When the first edition of this book was edited in 1985, the use of quantitative risk assessment (QRA) as a tool in making decisions on safety in process plants was a contentious subject. Now it is widely accepted. The basic approaches to hazard identification are now generally understood and widely used. Hazard studies are common in the earliest stages of a project. And the use QRA offshore has confirmed its reputation as a tool in cost-effective decision making . There have been technical advances in assessment of consequences and in understanding of the way explosions and fires develop and gases disperse on a large scale. This book covers such changes. It also looks at transport risks and the storage of chemicals in warehouses. What is more, it reflects the modern significance of safety management systems and auditing arrangements. It is only in the area of regulatory application of acceptance criteria that real contention remains. The presentation of all this new and revised material has been done under the painstaking and meticulous eyes of the European Federation of Chemical Engineers Loss Prevention Working Party, and its two chosen editors Robin Turney of ICI and Robin Pitblado of DNV Technica.
