LOPA – Layer of Protection Analysis

• Multidiscipline team exercise. Immediately after HAZOP (1w/m)

• Good synergy with HazOp (Cause, consequence, safeguards)

• Simple rules (reproducible), order of magnitude of the risk

• Barrier/Protection layers analysis methodology

• Focus on Safety Instrumented Systems

• Will also address credit for other Safety Related Systems

• Identification of required and expected performance of critical systems

• Closes the gap between „expected‟ system performance and required „Risk

Tolerance‟

• Determines Safety Integrity Level (SIL) of „gap‟

• Can be an entry point to QRA

Step1 – Establish TTC

• The criteria are dependant on numbers used for initiating events,

risk reduction factors etc.

• Economic impact should include the total loss • Demolition cost

• Installed equipment costs (x3 purchase price)

• Cost of business interruption

(value of product that cannot be shipped out, not cost of lost production)

• Corporate TTC should be used as a basis to establish local applicable TTC

Step2 – Preliminary selection of scenarios/SIFs

• Scenarios/SIF identified from C&E, interlocks narrative and P&IDs

• Additional scenario where a SIF is recommended for evaluation (e.g.

identified during HAZID, HAZOP or other project/facility review)

• High impact severity scenarios (i.e. category 7 and 8 in TTC)

Essential Requirements

• Specific. Detect Decide and Deflect

• Effective. big Enough, fast Enough, strong Enough, smart Enough

• Independent. Its performance must not be affected by other protection

layers and must be Independent of the events causing the accident

• Reliable: The protection given by the IPL reduce the risk in a known

and specific quantity.

• Auditable: It must allow periodic checks and tests of the protection

function.

Step5 – Identify IPLs and select probability of failures

All IPL are protection Layers, but all protection layers are not IPLs

2012-03-07 25

Page 26: SIL Allocation -  · PDF filetarget SIL Address target SIL ... Step2 – Preliminary selection of scenarios/SIFs ... SIL Allocation & SIL Verification ,

• Process design – Inherent safety in design

− Initial risk, not an IPL.

− Minimize, Substitute, Moderate, Simplify

• Process control system

− Actions to return the process in within normal operating envelope (e.g.

minimum flow control)

− Process shutdown (shadowing the SIS in the PCS)

− Alarms (+operator response)

2012-03-07 26

Page 27: SIL Allocation -  · PDF filetarget SIL Address target SIL ... Step2 – Preliminary selection of scenarios/SIFs ... SIL Allocation & SIL Verification ,

• Process control system

− Maximum PFD claimed 0,1 if independent of initiating events and other IPLs

− It the initiating event is caused by PCS control loop failure, PCS can be

considered an IPL if:

• Sensors, I/O cards and final elements are independents

• Logic controller designed with high level of reliability by reference to

recognized industry standards (e.g. redundant CPUs).

− PFD lower than 0,1 requires that the PCS is designed according to IEC61511

− PCS cannot be catered twice as IPL.

• PCS supervision & Alarms – Human intervention

− direct connection between the alarm, which indicates the event, and the

measures to be taken by staff to avoid the event

− Safety Alarms requiring intervention should be prioritized, configuration

access restricted

• Preventive SIS (PSD)

• Mitigation SIS

− ESD, F&G, Emergency Depressurization or Dumping system, Fire water,

etc.

− Have a role in risk reduction but should not be considered IPL for

evaluation of preventive SIF (PSD) with LOPA. Objective is to prevent

scenario without relying on mitigation SIS (residual consequences even if

successful). May be given credit in QRA.

− Design against scenario shall be demonstrated, claimed reliability shall

be demonstrated, appropriate maintenance and testing.

• Mechanical mitigation system

− PSV and rupture disk

Depends on SIF design intent, i.e. in lieu of PSV or in addition e.g. to limit release to

disposal system.

PSV fulfils the 3E? release damageable? Fouling service?

− Check valve

IPL, with restriction on service and technology, frequent testing required

− Flame arrestor (in line)

Can be IPL. Design against deflagration will not prevent detonation, testing

− Explosion doors

Not an IPL. can be considered for selection of lower impact severity. Design must be

checked against explosion load

− Excess flow valves

Mitigation, generally not an IPL

• Post release physical protection (Passive)

− Dike, Fire wall, Passive fire protection, Collision protection

− Should not considered IPL for evaluation of preventive SIF with LOPA.

May be given credit in QRA. Design against scenario shall be

demonstrated, appropriate maintenance

• Emergency response (Evacuation and rescue)

− Relying on Evacuation and rescue is the last resort. No credit for risk

reduction shall be granted as IPL. Considered in the selection of

− Occupancy

Step6 – Conditional modifiers

0,1: Rare to occasional exposure in the hazardous zone:

Exposure time inferior to 10% Most continuous process plants will have only occasional exposure. This would be the default

choice for normal operation and when something goes spontaneously wrong

1 : Frequent to permanent exposure in the hazardous zone (more than 10% of the time). Exposure time superior to 10% Most continuous process plants will have troubleshooting, testing and maintenance activities

upon certain alarms. This can mean that several people are exposed to a hazard when it happens.

The correct action for hazardous work and when something goes wrong is to evacuate the premises as much as possible; (ARCO 1989 tank explosion).

Consider specific scenarios during shut-down or start-up with almost permanent exposure (e.g. lightning of fired heaters).

Batch plants and semi-batch plants that often require semi-continuous human supervision.

Page 35: SIL Allocation -  · PDF filetarget SIL Address target SIL ... Step2 – Preliminary selection of scenarios/SIFs ... SIL Allocation & SIL Verification ,

− Probability to avoid the hazardous event once the SIS has failed

Step6 – Conditional modifiers

1 : Almost impossible to avoid the hazard: this is the default probability.

Credit for using personal protective equipment to avert a hazard should not be taken, unless it is

certain that the personal protective equipment will actually be worn. Usually, systems are

designed on the assumption that the use of such equipment is not absolutely required to achieve

a sufficient degree of safety, although it is recognized that it can further improve safety.

0,1: Possible to avoid the hazard under certain conditions: needs strong justification.

Should be only selected if all the following conditions are true:

• Facilities are provided to alert the operator that the SIS has failed

• Independent facilities are provided to shut down such that the hazard can be avoided or which

enable all persons to escape to a safe area (e.g. escape route is obvious and immediate, with

no vertical or spiral staircase, no rescue required, etc.)

• The time between the operator being alerted and a hazardous event occurring exceeds 1 hour

or is definitely sufficient for the necessary actions

Caution: Don‟t cater twice for the same “operator intervention” (e.g. Alarm+operator intervention)

Closing the safety gap by SIS

Page 38: SIL Allocation -  · PDF filetarget SIL Address target SIL ... Step2 – Preliminary selection of scenarios/SIFs ... SIL Allocation & SIL Verification ,

Step9 – Evaluate need for other non-SIS IPL

• LOPA is focused on identification of SIF to close the safety gap, it does not

necessarily mean that a SIS is needed

• By order of preference:

• Design the problem out of the process using inherently safe principles

• Protection by non-SIS protective measure

• Passive rather than active

• A SIF should be the solution of last resort when other solutions are not

practicle

Step10 – Evaluate consequences of spurious trip failure

• Spurious failure: failure trigging action in an untimely manner

• Consider need for „robust to spurious trip‟ design (e.g. 2oo3 instead of 1oo2)

• Set minimum mean time to fail safe requirement (MTTFS=1/ STR)

Step10 – Reporting. SIL Allocation Report

• Methodology

• Identified IPL listing that is regarded part of the PCS, e.g. alarm function

requiring operator action

• Identified SIF list and SIL allocation result, corresponding SIS

• SIF/SIL Allocation worksheet

All assumption, uncertainties and sensitivities should be recorded

Level of detail sufficient to enable 3rd party to follow/reproduce the evaluation

• Starting point for the Safety Requirement Specification (SRS)

Special cases handling

• Global Safety Instrumented Systems for consequence Mitigation

ESD, F&G, Emergency Depressurization or Dumping system, Fire water, etc.

Release and other events cannot be interrupted by mitigation SIS.

Severity reduction, but residual consequences even if the mitigation SIS is

successfull (e.g. large uncontrolled fire vs controlled fire, avoid escalation)

• Design Intent

• Safe State

• Demand mode vs Continuous mode of operation (IEC61511-1 definitions)

Demand mode:

where a specified action (e.g. closing of a valve) is taken in response to process

conditions or other demands. In the event of a dangerous failure of the SIF a

potential hazard only occurs in the event of a failure in the process or the PCS

Continuous mode:

where in the event of a dangerous failure of the safety instrumented function a

potential hazard will occur without further failure unless action is taken to prevent it

A SIF operates in continuous mode when the frequency of demands for operation

on the SIF is more than once per year or more than twice the SIF proof test

frequency.
