2 HAZOP METHODOLOGY
2.1 Overview
This section outlines the methodology adopted for the HAZOP study conducted for the project
2.2 Methodology
Being an existing refinery that too one of the oldest refineries the methodology followed was as
under. The methodology so adopted was from the point of view of benefiting from the vast
experience of operating personnel gained over years of running of refinery on one hand and on
the other hand operating constraints.
Therefore the Hazop methodology considered these aspects by detailed briefing from all the
concerned engineers along with conventional HAZOP methodology which is a formal systematic
procedure used to review the design and operation of a potentially hazardous process facility. It
is used to identify deviations from normal safe operation, which could lead, to hazards or
operability problems, and to define any actions necessary to deal with these.
The study is performed by a team of people who are familiar with the plant design and operation,
working under the guidance of a leader who is experienced in use of the HAZOP method.
The method involves several repetitive steps
• Identify a section of plant on the P&I diagram.
• Define the design intent and normal operation conditions of the section.
• Identify a deviation from design intent or operating conditions by applying a system of
guidewords.
• Identify possible causes for, and consequences of, the deviation. A deviation can be
considered meaningful if it has credible cause and can result in harmful consequences.
• For a meaningful deviation, decide what action, if any is necessary.
• Record the discussion and action.
Step 3 to 6 is repeated until all the guidewords have been exhausted and the team is satisfied
that all meaningful deviations have been considered. The team then goes back to step 1 and
repeats the procedure for the next section of the plant.
In the HAZOP method, the guidewords are systematically applied to a segment of process
equipment in order to promote discussion on possible deviations from the design intention. The
guidewords represent deviations to the design intent and their use leads to systematic
highlighting of hazards and operability problems.
2.2.1 Document Review
Before commencement of the HAZOP, the HAZOP Chairman reviewed the project scope and
developed the HAZOP checklist applicable to the project. Document Review is considered an
important part of the HAZOP workshop as it makes the facilitator aware of the various risks
inherent within the activities involved in the project.
Figure 2.1 presents the HAZOP methodology adopted for the study.
The method identifies the causes of a deviation from the design intent by application of the
guidewords. The ultimate consequences are then identified and recorded without reference to
the safeguards, which are in place (examples of safeguards are plant design, control systems,
and procedures). The consequences are then compared with the safeguards and the HAZOP
team then decides whether the current safeguards are adequate. If the team considers them
inadequate, then a recommendation is made to consider or add further safeguards.

• Safeguards
• Recommendations
• Remarks
Guideword
A guideword provides the team with a starting point to identify issues. Using a comprehensive list
of guideword is important to achieve maximum benefit from the HAZOP study. A HAZOP
checklist shall be used to act as an ad-memoir to identify any hazards that may have been over-
looked during the brainstorming session. For each hazard, the root cause, the consequence, any
safeguards already implemented in the design will be identified.
Parameter
Parameter is an aspect of the process that describes it physically, chemically or in terms of what
is happening.
Deviation
Deviation is defined as unreasonable / undesired change in the parameter. Deviation is formed
by a combination of the parameter and guideword.
Cause
For each hazard, the root cause is determined, such that the appropriate safeguards for the
causal events are determined.
Consequence
In assigning a level of consequence to the hazards, the HAZOP team took into consideration the
following factors:
• The present design status of the safeguards and controls
• Physical and working environment conditions
• Levels of training, experience, skills, education etc of the facilities personnel
Safeguards
The study identified the existing design safeguards for each hazard. The types of safeguards
commonly include:
• Preventive safeguards, which aim to prevent the event cause from occurring
• Detective safeguards, which aim to improve the response time to an event
• Protective safeguards, which aim to protect from the escalation consequences and are
always used regardless of whether the event has occurred
• Mitigation safeguards, which aim to reduce the severity of the escalation consequences
and are activated once the event cause and escalation consequences have occurred.
Actions / Recommendations
Where the associated safeguards are not adequate, further recommendations are proposed.
