Safety in Design Solutions

Safety In Design Solutions

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

Safety in Design Solutions involves integrating safety considerations into the design phase of industrial processes and facilities to minimize risks and enhance safety.

Land Use Planning and Layout Optimisation Assessment

This assessment evaluates the layout of industrial facilities to minimize the impact of potential hazards on surrounding areas and communities.

Structural Response and Integrity Assessment

This assessment evaluates the structural integrity of buildings and equipment to ensure they can withstand potential hazards such as explosions or fires.

Design Accidental Load ( fire and blast) Assessment

This assessment evaluates the potential loads placed on structures and equipment during accidents such as fires or explosions.

Active and Passive Fire Protection Assessment

This assessment evaluates the effectiveness of fire protection measures such as fire suppression systems, fireproofing, and passive fire protection barriers.

Fire and Gas Mapping Studies

These studies involve mapping the distribution of flammable gases and potential fire scenarios within industrial facilities to identify areas of high risk.

HAC and ATEX Studies

HAC (Hazardous Area Classification) and ATEX (Atmosphères Explosibles) studies involve classifying areas within industrial facilities based on the likelihood of explosive atmospheres forming and assessing the effectiveness of safety measures in these areas.

Building Risk Assessments

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.

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.
