Abstract
Energy sources that can be utilized by humans are oil and natural gas. However, in exploration activities, there are problems regarding the risk level determination of equipment in offshore platforms. The equipment that has an important function for the processing of oil and gas is a pressure vessel. In the contents of the hydrocarbon flow produced by the production well, it consists of various mixtures (gas, crude oil, and water). Therefore, it is necessary to have a separation process between the three fluid phases by using a device, namely a separator (pressure vessel). If the process of separating the three-phase from the hydrocarbon flow fails, it will result in product failure and also threaten the workers and the surrounding environment. So, this study will use the risk-based inspection (RBI) method to determine the level of risk from a pressure vessel. The risk-based inspection (RBI) method was chosen because the oil and gas processing industry have a high level of risk so that safety for business management and environmental conditions is the main consideration. Another advantage of using the risk-based inspection (RBI) method is the reduced shutdown time and the number of equipment inspections.
