What is a Safety Critical Element?

An element whose failure could cause or contribute to a Major Accident Hazard or prevent effective mitigation of such an event.

How often are SCEs inspected or tested?

Frequencies are risk-based and typically defined using RBI principles and industry standards.

Are SCE Performance Standards mandatory?

They are recognised industry best practice and often expected by regulators for Major Accident Hazard facilities.

Can you review or upgrade existing SCE standards?

Yes. We routinely assess, rationalise, and modernise legacy SCE Performance Standards.

Structured SCE & Asset Integrity Management

Problem We Solve

Limited Line of Sight

Weak connection between Major Accident Hazards, safety barriers, and equipment.

Inconsistent SCE Criteria

Different disciplines or assets interpret SCE requirements differently.

Over-Classification or Under-Identification

Safety Critical Elements are either over-classified or missed.

Unclear Boundaries and Dependencies

System boundaries, interfaces, and dependencies are not clearly defined.

Difficult Performance Standards

Performance Standards are hard to interpret or apply in practice.

Misaligned Inspection and Maintenance

Performance Standards do not align with inspection or maintenance activities.

What Clients Achieve

Clear Critical Element Identification

Plant, systems, and equipment essential to preventing or mitigating Major Accident Hazards are clearly recognised and classified.

Traceability to Safety Basis

Critical elements are traceable to the safety basis, supporting stronger assurance and defensibility.

Measurable Performance Standards

Performance Standards define what acceptable performance looks like and how it is assured

Reliable Critical Barriers

Safety-critical and integrity-critical barriers remain available, reliable, and capable of performing when required.

Lifecycle Asset Protection

Supports protection of people, the environment, and asset integrity across all lifecycle phases.

Deliverables

Approved SCE Identification List

Clear definition of SCE scope and boundaries

Full traceability to HSE Case and Bow-Tie controls

Inputs ready for upload into Asset Register and PMMS/CMMS
