At Pure Integrity, we understand the importance of process safety in high-risk industries like oil and gas and process industries. Our team of experienced and certified professionals are committed to providing comprehensive consulting services on process safety to assist you in minimizing risks and safeguarding your assets, reputation and personnel. We work closely with our clients to develop customized solutions that suit their specific needs and objectives, and conform to industry standards and regulatory requirements. From hazard identification and risk assessment to SIL verification and HAZOP studies, we have the expertise and knowledge to help our clients achieve their safety goals.
We have experience in conducting various risk studies globally covering offshore and onshore facilities of diverse complexities.
Hazard and Operability (HAZOP) study is a formal technique to systematically examine the process design of a facility, with due regard for the planned mode of operation, inspection and maintenance. The objectives of the HAZOP study are to:
Hazard Identification (HAZID) study is a valuable tool for identifying potential hazards associated with a process or system. The objectives of HAZID study are to:
Identify potential hazards and reasonably foreseeable accidents within the overall design of the facilities;
Assign a risk category to each hazard and rank them in accordance with the risk;
Identify any safeguards that is available within the current design (i.e. any measure provided to prevent, control, mitigate, or enable emergency response and recovery); and
Provide recommendation(s) for further safeguards where deemed necessary.
Alarm management is systematic approach to managing essential alarm in oil & gas industry and process industry to ensure safe operation. As alarms are essential in alerting operators to abnormal or potential hazardous situation, however excessive number of alarms or poorly designed alarm systems can lead to increased risk of incidents or errors.
Alarm management aims to optimize the performance of alarm systems by ensuring that alarms are meaningful, reliable, and effectively communicated to operators through Alarm Rationalization Study.
Bow-tie analysis provides a structured framework for identifying and visualizing potential risks and the corresponding preventive and mitigative barriers. The technique uses a graphical representation resembling a bow-tie, with the hazard or event of concern in the center, the threats or causes on one side, and the consequences and preventive/mitigative barriers on the other side.
The bow-tie diagram helps to illustrate the cause-and-effect relationship between hazards, threats, consequences, and control measures. It helps organizations evaluate whether the risk reduction measures identified through bow-tie analysis are sufficient to meet the ALARP criteria. If the analysis reveals that the risks are not reduced to an acceptable level, additional control measures can be identified and implemented to further mitigate the risks and achieve an ALARP state.
