Hazard Identification and Assessment (HAZID)
At Petrorix, we possess in depth understanding and wide range of experiences conducting Hazard identification in high-risk environment. HAZID is the first and most crucial step in conducting a qualitative, semi quantitative or quantitative risk assessment. It is a qualitative review of plants processes, procedure and systems that are capable of causing harm.
Identified hazards will vary depending on the type of plant, structure and lifecycle stages of activities to be considered. Petrorix utilizes various techniques such as Hazard Review, Hazard and Operability Study (HAZOP), Procedural HAZOP, HAZID and Emergency System Survivability Analysis (ESSA) for Hazard Identification and Assessment:

Quantitative Risk Assessment (QRA)
Quantitative Risk Assessment is often used in major accident hazard facilities such as Offshore Installations, Refineries and LNG Plants
It is a form of risk assessment executed by specialists to demonstrate acceptable risk levels from identified hazardous event to individuals, employees, the environment and the business as a whole. A Quantitative Risk Assessment includes the identification of potential hazardous event together with an estimate of the likelihood and the consequences of the hazardous event occurring. The result is presented as risk to people, environment and business.
At Petrorix, we work closely with our clients, offering our professional expertise in undertaking their QRA studies, identifying the top risk contributors on their facility with the aim of providing further risk reduction measures in order to meet the risk acceptability criteria defined by either local regulations or company policy.

Bow Tie Risk Assessment

The BowTie methodology is used for risk assessment, risk management and (very important) risk communication. The method is designed to give a better overview of the situation in which certain risks are present; to help people understand the relationship between the risks and organizational events. The strength of the methodology lies in its simplicity; the phrase ‘less is more’ is certainly applicable. Risk in BowTie methodology is elaborated by the relationship between Hazard, Top Events, Threats and Consequences. Controls are used to display what measures an organization has in place to control the risk. Petrorix consultants are trained and competent in carrying out Bowtie risk assessment for our clients. The Bowtie risk assessment enables them to have a complete and thorough understanding of the hazards they are exposed to, its consequences, together with the effectiveness of the prevention and mitigating barriers that have been put in place to prevent the occurrence of the hazard.

Safety Case Development and Management
At Petrorix, we specialize in the development of safety cases for new installation, review and update of safety case for existing installation either as a result of extensive modification to the installation or due to legislative requirement. We work closely with our clients to ensure that their installation risk management system in terms of overall estimation of risks and the safety management system required to reduce this risks to tolerable levels are adequately documented.

Risk Based Inspection
Risk-based inspection (RBI) is the process of developing an inspection plan based on knowledge of the risk of failure of equipment. Petrorix offers RBI solutions to Members as part of its risk and reliability engineering services. Our exhaustive knowledge of materials degradation processes, and demonstrable track record in this area, mean Member companies can rely on us to develop the right plan for each scenario. Using an established methodology and Petrorix bespoke so ware, we can develop maintenance or replacement solutions, giving guidance on managing your assets in the most effective manner, from individual component studies through to turnkey, plant-wide projects – tailored to your needs. Our asset integrity management and plant life assessment services work together to maximize the reliability and efficiency of a structure or component.
Petrorix has recently developed quantitative data trending as a means of mitigating risk in equipment where reliable data is scarce or unavailable. This, coupled with Petrorix so ware (API 581 compliant) allows assessments to be conducted with greater speed and accuracy than ever before.

Asset Integrity Management
Asset Integrity Management means a management system which plant owners use to ensure that the people, systems, processes and resources, which deliver the Integrity, are in place, in use and fit for purpose over the whole lifecycle of the asset. They are therefore essentially Risk Management activities forming the basis of inspection and safety, the creation, planning and execution of procedures covering inspections/tests and the activities supporting this, such as recording inspections and corrective action. Additionally, it also covers production system components which are not SCE’s but which must be maintained fit-for-purpose.
