The South Texas Project (STP) balance of plant (BOP) model for production losses has been converted from an Excel-based software application that uses minimal cutsets from a single large fault tree, to a set of small fault trees used within a risk analysis tool, Riskman® [8]. The Riskman® application provides estimates of interest to plant investors and owners such as potential production losses and plant profitability, as well as production reliability and quality (loss frequency, type of loss, loss duration and standard economic risk metrics). The BOP models and methodologies developed are applicable to both fault-tree linking and event-tree linking styles of risk analysis. The STP BOP model is developed to support configuration risk management in two categories: 1) trip risk and concomitant core damage frequency; and 2) non-trip production risk. The primary purpose for the conversion work is to make the STP BOP model framework and application platform consistent with the STP probabilistic risk assessment model. In the course of the conversion, improvements to the Riskman® software have been implemented and techniques to more efficiently produce BOP modeling (fault tree) improvements were developed. Better methods to accurately calculate initiating event frequencies are studied. New data types added to support BOP modeling are described.

Abstract The paper presents application of the Event Tree Analysis method for analyzing risk in complex situations. A model associated with the occurrence of fire on PZL Bryza was developed using the aircraft flight manual. The probabilities of events caused by the initiating event and the losses caused by each of the highlighted final undesirable events were determined. Statistical data for flight safety was used to calculate probability of the initiating event. The risk was determined as the probability that losses of at least given category will occur during one flight. As a result of the conducted analysis it was found that the probability of in-flight fire is very small. However, in such a case, the probability of death of one or more passengers is relatively high.

The purpose of this article is to develop a methodology for risk analysis by transforming structures. A methodology for risk analysis is proposed by transforming structures based on existing links between the system description through a block diagram, a fault tree, and an event tree. Risk analysis of risk techniques by fault tree and event tree provides an unambiguous relationship between element parameters and parity of equivalent elements describing a system or a subsystem. An example of risk analysis by transforming structures is presented, according to the proposed methodology applicable to risk identification, including transformations between block diagram and fault tree and event tree, as well as variants to determine their risk (at accepted value of damages), according to acceptances made. A methodology has been developed and examples of risk analysis by transformation of structures are shown.

During the construction of the regulation of a watercourse, a large number of unexpected events can occur and increase the risk associated with the project hindering its successful realization. Risk events can result in breaking deadlines, increasing costs, reducing quality, etc. This paper analyzes the risk in the implementation of the Medalj stream regulation project, using the appropriate method that gives the best results for each phase of the risk analysis. Thus, the HAZOP method was used to identify risk events, the risk matrix to define the level of risk, the FMEA method to propose actions to reduce the possibility of risk event occurrence, the Fault tree method to determine the cause of risk event occurrence and the Event tree method to determine possible outcomes of risk events. The obtained results showed that the key risk event was ?Only a part of the planned soil excavated?, so the paper will present the results related to earthworks, although the analysis referred to the entire project.

The purpose of this work is the risk assessment of a stabilizer reflux drum using HAZOP - Fault tree - Event tree approach. This risk assessment approach aims first of all to identify potential accident scenarios using Hazard an Operability study (HAZOP), these scenarios need more detailed frequencies estimation, it is performed thanks to fault tree analysis. Then, to analyze events issuing after success or fail of safety barriers, the event tree is used. Finally, in order to better appreciate accident scenarios, ALOHA is utilized to simulate them.
