Abstract

This project highlights the methods to analyze and determine Fire Hazards & Risk Assessment in Offshore Petroleum Facilities. A comprehensive risk assessment study is conducted to find the best and effective method or techniques for determining the fire risk in offshore petroleum facilities. The project is based on Quantitative risk assessment and Qualitative Risk Assessment Techniques. A comparison between qualitative and quantitative risk assessment techniques is done for specifying the best methodology to effectuate the objects of the project. An offshore structure is a mammoth platform with facilities to drill wells, to extract and process oil and natural gas or to temporarily store products until they can be brought on the shore for refining and marketing. As the natures of the operations are hostile it may encounter extreme pressure and dangerous environments. Risks, accidents and tragedies can occur spontaneously. Process operations are the most hazardous activity. A small miss-happening in the Oil & Gas offshore platform process operations can escalate to catastrophe.
