Hazard & Operability Analysis

VAIL – HAZOP is a software tool that is used to identify potential hazards to a process system. HAZOP analysis is a stuctured technique that performs a systematic study of a process using guide words to discover how deviations from the design intent can occur in equipment, actions or materials and whether the consequences of these deviations can result in hazards.

With VAIL – HAZOP you can to quantify the possible hazards of a process system such as process fluid line, cooling water line, heat exchanger tube, deviations, nodes, risk ranking of hazard, failure causes, failure consequences, safeguards, tasks and actions assignment, and overall analysis.

Why HAZOP?Hazard identification is a key phase in the safety management of a facility. Only identified hazards can be analyzed, assessed, managed and mitigated if necessary. However the usefulness of the hazard identification process is now expected to extend beyond the initial identification phase; for example, to provide input to management of change, written procedures, and incident investigation.

VAIL-HAZOP features• Windows-based application, easy to use and has attractive Graphical

User Interface• Project Team & Session Recording and Dynamic Reporting specific to

project and facility• Study against nodes, assignment of deviations and their risk ranking• Identification of failure causes, consequences and safeguards• Tasks and actions assignments, their status and priority ranking• Analysis summary• Dynamic action sheet and worksheet generation• Strong security policy – it is password enabled to avoid unauthorized

access

HAZOP Analysis team recordingVAIL-HAZOP has a feature for recording the information from the team members involved in HAZOP analysis study, session recording and project information. Sessions recorded by the software can be viewed and printed dynamically applying user convenient filters. A sample of which is displayed in figures 1 and 2:

HAZOP Process analysis• Software is capable of recording data as per standard

requirement for HAZOP Analysis.• Multiple scenario recordings against one node• User only need to select from a list of guide words that

are embedded into the software• Automatic risk ranking against selection of likelihoods

and consequences

References• API – 750• API – 14J• API – 1150
