Perancangan Sistem Pengendalian Risiko Menggunakan Simplified Bowtie Analysis pada Fasilitas FSO Federal II di PT XYZ

The oil and gas industry in Indonesia, including PT XYZ which manages domestic oil and gas, faces high complexity and risk. PT XYZ's operations are supported by several offshore platforms and facilities which have various potential risks. Process safety is a top priority to prevent major incidents or major accidents. PT XYZ uses Process Hazard Analysis (PHA) which needs to be revalidated every five years to ensure procedures comply with current conditions. This research focuses on the FSO Federal II facility owned by PT XYZ, a 200 thousand barrel capacity crude oil storage vessel with a high potential risk of major incidents. PT XYZ uses the HAZOP and HAZID methods in PHA to identify risks. However, PT XYZ does not yet have a direct control system for workers. This research aims to create a risk control system that can be used by Federal II FSO workers as a work guide. This work guide will help in handling undesirable events that have the potential to cause major incidents. Proposed improvements include creating a work guidance document based on risk identification using Bowtie Analysis, which produces a mapping diagram of causes, peak events, hazards and consequences. The bowtie diagram will be simplified to make things easier for workers, considering the large number of processes in FSO Federal II. This guideline will help workers prevent major incidents from occurring.

ANALYSIS OF OCCUPATIONAL SAFETY AND HEALTH (K3) RISK IN THE CONSTRUCTION OF SAMPANG SOUTH RING ROAD (JLS) USING HAZID HIRA AND HAZOP METHODS

Occupational Health and Safety (K3) is all engineering activities to support construction work in realizing the fulfillment of security, safety, health and sustainability standards that ensure construction engineering safety, workforce safety and health, public safety and environmental safety. The method used is HIRA, HAZID and HAZOP. In HIRA, there are 4 dominant risk variables that may occur during the construction of the South Ring Road (JLS) Sampang, namely: (X4.4), (X5.3), (X6.1), and (X6.2). To determine whether or not the variable data used using the HAZID method is to use a preliminary questionnaire which is distributed before the main questionnaire. the correlation value of each variable is obtained or it is called r count, then the r count can be compared with r table. To determine the risk response and recommendations that may occur using the HAZOP method is to use literature studies from previous journals as well as occupational safety and health standards. Thus, 19 recommendations for controlling the 4 dominant risks that may occur in the South Ring Road (JLS) Sampang project are obtained.

Risk Assessment of Solid Propellant Rocket Motor using a Combination of HAZOP and FMEA Methods

The development of rockets in Indonesia has long been carried out by the National Aeronautics and Space Agency (LAPAN), which has now been integrated into the National Research and Innovation Agency (BRIN). The Research Centre for Rocket Technology, which is one of the centres within BRIN, has been developing solid propellant-based rockets with a various sizes and types. Solid-propellant rocket technology is commonly used because of their reliability, cost-effectiveness, and simple design. However, this technology is one of the high-risk technologies, whose failure can harm humans, damage the environment and cause huge losses to assets. As a high-risk technology, risk assessment activities must be carried out, starting from the design, manufacturing, testing and up to the launching stage. In this paper, we studied a risk assessment for general Solid-propellant Rocket Motor (SRM). SRM is basically a device that processes chemical energy in solid propellant into thrust (kinetic energy) in a container that functions as a pressure vessel. The risk assessment methods commonly used in this technology are the HAZOP or FMEA methods. The HAZOP is excellent in identifying failure modes systematically through identifying the deviation of physical process parameters but has difficulties in prioritizing the risk. The FMEA has effectiveness in understanding failure mechanisms and establishing necessary countermeasures, but for a product with a lot of components, the worksheet is also complex. By combining these two methods, integrating the superiority of each method, this research can identify modes, causes and effects of failure that may occur in SRM effective and accurately. In addition, this research also proposes corrective or preventive actions for each failure mode. As the objective of the risk assessment, results of the research can be used as input for the designers to improve their design and as inspection and surveillance objects for QC officers.

Safety, health, and environmental risk assessment of the aromatic outlet of Imam Khomeini Petrochemical Company using LOPA and fuzzy-LOPA and pollutants and control actions using the Bow-tie method.

Today, with the development of the industry, the occurrence of accidents caused by the release and explosion of chemical and toxic substances in industrial units has increased, and these accidents sometimes cause irreparable damage to human life and the environment. According to a study by the American Petroleum Institute, of the recent major accidents in the last 30 years, 44% are related to machinery failure and 12% are caused by unknown factors and lack of information. Therefore, equipment risk control is aimed at preventing large and dangerous accident. The present study, the performance of LOPA and fuzzy-LOPA methods was compared toward the risk assessment of Imam Khomeini Petrochemical Company under certainty and uncertainty of data. This comparison was done in order to a conceptual method with high certainty to assess high-level hazards leading to health and safety risks and environmental pollution. First, the health, safety hazards and environmental aspects were identified via the HAZOP method. Then, a risk assessment was performed using the LOPA method. The fuzzification, severity, and likelihood of each risk were considered as an input variable and risk probability as an output variable. Finally, was the methods used in our analysis were compared and the Bow-tie software was used to draw a Bow-tie diagram to control and reduce the risks. As a result, a total of 50 safety and health hazards and 37 environmental aspects were identified in the aromatic outlet of the studied company using the HAZOP method. The most critical risks identified were operational activities in feed and product tanks; flammable materials pumping; blocking the flare path; and releasing H2S gas. The results showed that the production of air pollutants in the power supply unit, disposal of waste from reactor tanks, disposal of waste from condensate tanks, and fire and explosion of the reactor are high-level environmental risks. In the conditions of uncertainty or the absence of information related to the probability and severity of the risk scenario, among the mentioned methods. The result showed that errors in the risk assessment were reduced to an acceptable extent by using Fuzzy LOPA method.

Hazard Analysis of an Autonomous Container Handling System – a Comparison of STPA and HAZOP Methods

Increasing automation is a major trend in container terminals. In automated container handling systems, safety has been previously ensured by segregating the automated machinery from other traffic and workers moving on foot. Currently, further increases in flexibility are sought by developing autonomous systems that are capable of mixed-traffic operations without the need for separate operating areas. This increases the complexity of the systems and introduces new safety hazards. In addition to traditional hazard analysis methods, new approaches are needed to address the emergent risks related to autonomous operations. This paper studies the applicability of the STPA (system-theoretic process analysis) method in hazard analysis of an autonomous machine system. To support the evaluation, we define evaluation categories for comparison of the analysis methods. We also compare STPA with an established method, HAZOP (hazard and operability study). To perform the comparison, both STPA and HAZOP are applied to an autonomous container handling system concept. The study suggests that both STPA and HAZOP are well suited to support the development of autonomous machinery. However, we also highlight some notable differences in the methods, mostly related to the different underlying accident models that they utilise. HAZOP is an established method with tools and standards available. STPA, on the other hand, provides a well-defined syntax to ensure the analysis quality and a system modelling approach that supports the system development.

SAFETY EVALUATION OF PETROLEUM TANK FARM: AN ANALYTICAL STUDY OF NNPCL MAIDUGURI DEPOT PLANT

A petroleum tank farm, usually known as an oil terminal is a common facility that stores flammable liquid. Tank farm has possible hazards to the people, environment and asset. Some of the hazards such as fire, static electricity, transportation etc. are accidents which occur at the oil terminals. Many industries are using different risk assessment methods to priorities hazards linked to their work activities. In this study, a new risk and safety analysis model, known as quantitative risk assessment (QRA) for tank farm was applied. QRA is an effective planning tool used in chemical processing plant, to help at forecasting the potential major accident occurrences, so that suitable mitigating and preventive measures can be implemented. QRA was conducted on a selected NNPCL Maiduguri depot tank farm with specified objectives. The three main objectives for this study are hazard identification, risk evaluation using qualitative and quantitative risk assessment by using the hazard and operability analysis, HAZOP and failure mode effect analysis (FMEA) methods. It was found that hazard occurrences were from various categories namely general management, hazardous chemical exposure and fire safety etc. In this research work, two scenarios was established and the estimated risks are associated to the petroleum tank farm activity such as leakage at dispenser area due to poor safeguarding systems, underground fuel leakage during unloading due to fittings failure and storage tank explosion due to high pressure. However, in summary, complete planning which combines all aspects are deemed necessary so that the impact of the associated risk from the operational, storage and maintenance of petroleum tank farm can be identified and minimized during the activities by working out the FMEA method sheet.

A Quantitative HAZOP Risk Analysis Under Extended CREAM Approach for Maritime Autonomous Surface Ship (MASS) Operation

Abstract Globally, there has been a substantial growth in interest in autonomous surface ships. This new domain presents numerous concerns for enhanced reader comprehension. The most crucial topic to consider is the safety of autonomous ships and the risks they present. To enable the use of autonomous ships, they must be as safe for the environment and for people as manned surface ships. However, as it has not yet been widely implemented, acquiring real-time data restricts the scope of the study. The objective of this paper is to conduct a comprehensive quantitative risk analysis for maritime autonomous surface ships (MASS). Therefore, it focuses on the operations to be performed by MASS and the factors that may pose a risk. In this context, Hazard and Operability Analysis (HAZOP) and Cognitive Reliability and Error Analysis Method (CREAM) approaches will be used in risk analysis assessment. While the HAZOP method will be used to determine the deviations, causes, possible consequences, and measurements that autonomous surface ships will be exposed to, the extended CREAM will be used to determine the likelihood of occurrence and risk levels of the MASS operation. The outcomes of the paper are anticipated to enhance the safety operational safety level of autonomous ships as well as mitigate risks.

Analysis of Accident and Occupational Diseases with HAZOP Method and The Risk Control of Batik Papringan Workers, Banyumas

An industry that has danger is Batik Papringan, Banyumas. Workers have not implemented Occupational Safety and Health (OSH) at work. It can be seen from the physical environment with poor lighting, workplaces that do not apply Ringkas, Rapi, Resik, Rawat, Rajin (5R), not using Personal Protective Equipment, unergonomic position, and feeling anxious due to decreased demand. Therefore, it is necessary to analyze occupational accidents and diseases and their control. The study took time in August 2020. The population was 200 people. The sample was obtained with the inclusion criteria, namely all Batik workers who were actively working until August 2020, while the exclusion criteria were workers who changed professions so that 190 people were obtained. The research design was cross-sectional with mixed-method analysis. The research was conducted using the HAZOP (Hazards and Operability Studies) sheet instrument. HAZOP sheet consists of job observation, hazard identification, Likelihood, and Consequences scoring, risk categorization, and control. The calculation results show that there is an extreme risk of three hazards (exposure to chemicals from wax, cloth dye, wood dust; bending attitude, static position; not applying 5R). The three extreme risks are respiratory disorders, dermatitis, fatigue, low back pain, Carpal Tunnel Syndrome (CTS), effectiveness, and efficiency of work decrease. The conclusion is that workers are at extreme risk. Employees need to be committed to risk management through disciplined risk control.

ANALISIS RISIKO KESELAMATAN DAN KESEHATAN KERJA PADA PROYEK KONSTRUKSI GEDUNG PAMJAYA MENGGUNAKAN METODE HAZARD OF OPERABILITY STUDY (HAZOP)

A New Semi-Quantitative Process Safety Assessment Method and Its Application for Fluorochemical Industry

Traditional hazard and operability analysis (HAZOP) is one of the most widely applied methods for process safety management in process enterprises. Due to its principles based on the conservative and qualitative judgment, it often leads to too conservative risk identification results for the fluorine chemical industry usually with high-risk processes to keep the continuity of production. Most of improved quantitative and semi-quantitative methods are based on the layer of protection analysis (LOPA) to resolve the over-conservative problem of traditional HAZOP with the database of LOPA. However, the improved model, taking LOPA as the main line and HAZOP only as the provider of scenarios and influencing factors, is limited to the fact that LOPA can only analyze complete and independent protection layers (IPLs). Therefore, in order to realize the quantitative or semi-quantitative analysis of disaster causes and consequences, a new semi-quantitative HAZOP method takes HAZOP as the main line to integrate LOPA, F&EI (fire and explosion index) for quantitatively calculating the reduction factors, probability on failure demand (PFD) of general protection layers (GPLs) and PFD of IPLs. With the case comparison of fluorine chemical industry, it is proved that this new method can effectively improve the problem that traditional HAZOP are too conservative in complex scenarios.
