Building Risk Assessments

Welcome to GHI, a premier provider of process safety consulting services dedicated to enhancing industrial safety worldwide. We specialize in offering expert advisory services tailored to meet the unique needs of diverse industrial sectors

Building Risk Assessment involves evaluating the structural integrity and safety features of buildings in industrial facilities to ensure they can withstand potential hazards such as explosions or fires.

Process safety and risk management

Process safety and risk management

Welcome to GHI, a premier provider of process safety consulting services dedicated to enhancing industrial safety worldwide. We specialize in offering expert advisory services tailored to meet the unique needs of diverse industrial sectors

Process Safety and Risk Management (PSM) is a comprehensive approach to managing the risks associated with industrial processes. It encompasses various methodologies and tools to identify, assess, and mitigate process-related hazards and risks.

Qualitative Risk Assessment /Bow-Tie Analysis

Qualitative Risk Assessment involves identifying and evaluating risks based on their likelihood and potential consequences. Bow-Tie Analysis is a graphical method used to visualize the relationship between hazards, their causes, and the preventive and mitigative barriers.

Quantitative Risk Assessment (QRA) and ALARP Studies

QRA involves quantifying the risks associated with process-related hazards using mathematical models and data analysis techniques. ALARP (As Low As Reasonably Practicable) Studies aim to ensure that risks are reduced to the lowest practicable level.

With a team of experienced consultants, we deliver QRAs for normal operations and SIMOPS to assist our clients in decision making.

The following steps are implemented systematically for analyzing the risk of different operations

      • Hazard Identification and listing of accident scenarios
      • frequency and consequence calculations
      • Overall risk assessment
      • Transportation and dropped object risk
      • Simultaneous Operations (SIMOPS)
      • Cost-Benefit Analysis (CBA)
      • ALARP Assessment

The team of experts are well versed with a wide range of risk analysis tools available in the market like PHAST/ SAFETI, FRED/ SHEPHERD, EFFECTS/ RISK CURVES. This creates a unique opportunity to customize the best fit analysis using different methods and tools as per the complexity customer’s scope.

Fire and Explosion Risk Assessments

These assessments evaluate the risk of fires and explosions occurring in industrial processes and facilities. They involve analyzing the likelihood and consequences of various ignition sources and combustible materials.

Escape Evacuation and Rescue Analysis

This analysis assesses the effectiveness of evacuation plans and emergency response procedures in the event of a process-related incident. It aims to ensure the safe evacuation and rescue of personnel.

Emergency Systems Survivability Analysis

This analysis evaluates the reliability and effectiveness of emergency systems such as fire suppression systems, emergency shutdown systems, and emergency response teams.

Process Hazard Analysis (PHA)

Process Hazard Analysis (PHA)

Welcome to GHI, a premier provider of process safety consulting services dedicated to enhancing industrial safety worldwide. We specialize in offering expert advisory services tailored to meet the unique needs of diverse industrial sectors

Process Hazards Analysis (PHA) is a systematic method used to identify potential hazards in industrial processes. It involves a thorough examination of all aspects of the process, from raw material handling to product storage and distribution. The primary goal is to prevent accidents and protect workers, the community, and the environment. PHA typically includes various techniques such as Hazard Identification (HAZID), Hazard and Operability Study (HAZOP), and Safety Integrity Level (SIL)/Layer of Protection Analysis (LOPA).

HAZID

HAZID involves brainstorming sessions with multidisciplinary teams to identify possible hazards associated with a process. It relies on the knowledge and experience of experts to recognize potential risks.

HAZOP

HAZOP is a structured and systematic technique used to identify deviations from the design intent of a process that may lead to hazardous situations or operability issues. It involves breaking down the process into manageable sections and systematically analyzing each part for potential deviations.

SIL/LOPA

SIL/LOPA is a risk assessment technique used to evaluate the effectiveness of safety measures in preventing or mitigating process-related hazards. It involves quantifying the risk associated with various scenarios and determining the required safety integrity level or layers of protection needed to reduce the risk to an acceptable level.

National Hydrogen Roadmap

Greenstat Hydrogen Sri Lanka has developed the National Hydrogen Roadmap for Sri Lanka in close collaboration with the Petroleum Development Authority of Sri Lanka (PDASL). Leveraging our extensive experience in policy and advisory roles gained in Norway and India, we have constructed a comprehensive roadmap that forms the foundation and framework for the transition from fossil fuels to renewable energy and ultimately to a zero-emission society.

The National Hydrogen Roadmap is a strategic document that outlines the steps and actions required to enable the widespread adoption of hydrogen as a clean and sustainable energy source in Sri Lanka. It serves as a guide for policymakers, stakeholders, and industry players involved in the energy transition.

The roadmap encompasses a range of key elements and considerations, including:

  1. Policy Framework: We have identified and developed a robust policy framework that supports the integration of hydrogen technologies into the existing energy infrastructure of Sri Lanka. This framework outlines the necessary regulations, incentives, and support mechanisms required to promote the deployment and utilization of hydrogen across various sectors.
  2. Infrastructure Development: The roadmap highlights the need for developing hydrogen infrastructure, including production, storage, transportation, and distribution networks. We provide insights into the required investments, technological advancements, and collaborations necessary to establish a reliable and efficient hydrogen infrastructure across the country.
  3. Market Creation: We have analyzed market potential and identified sectors where hydrogen can have a significant impact, such as transportation, power generation, and industrial processes. The roadmap explores strategies to create a favorable market environment, including market incentives, public-private partnerships, and the development of hydrogen value chains.
  4. Research and Development: Recognizing the importance of ongoing research and development, the roadmap emphasizes the need for investment in innovation, technology development, and knowledge sharing and a COE-H It encourages collaboration between academia, industry, and research institutions to drive advancements in hydrogen technologies and their integration into Sri Lanka’s energy landscape.
  5. International Cooperation: The roadmap acknowledges the value of international cooperation in accelerating the hydrogen transition. It highlights opportunities for collaboration with global partners, knowledge exchange, and access to international best practices to ensure a successful and effective implementation of hydrogen initiatives in Sri Lanka.

Overall, the National Hydrogen Roadmap provides a clear and actionable plan for Sri Lanka’s transition to a sustainable, hydrogen-based economy. It offers guidance on policy, infrastructure, market development, research, and international collaboration, paving the way for a greener and more prosperous future.

Greenstat Hydrogen Sri Lanka is committed to driving the implementation of this roadmap and working closely with stakeholders to realize Sri Lanka’s vision of a zero-emission society.
