Background
2
Over the years, DNV has developed a number of tools for safety analysis ofOffshore installations
Offshore Hazard and Risk Analysis Toolkit (OHRAT)
- First version released in 1992 in direct response to Piper Alpha disaster- Joint industry project with numerous Operators, Consultants and EPCs
Neptune
- The OHRAT concept taken into Microsoft Windows environment (1999)
Spreadsheet models (e.g. SOQRATES) (2005+)
Phast also used for Offshore consequences
All these tools have their own respective benefits and drawbacks
As a result, in 2009 DNV started discussing a new tool to harness our Offshoreexperience so far and build a new tool for the future
Welcome to Safeti Offshore!

Safeti Offshore
A joint collaboration involving significant investment between:
- DNV Consulting, providing their Offshore QRA and domain experience
- DNV Software, delivering software engineering and mathematical modelling expertise
Design discussions during 2009-2010
Project and coding kick-off January 2011, starting with Proof of Concept
First internal release planned for end-2012, plus regular interim releases
Key project goals:- Develop an integrated and uniform approach to Offshore QRA based upon international
standards such as ISO 17776 and NORSOK Z013
- Integration of separate QRA models within one common software tool
- Support risk management throughout the lifecycle of an installation from planning to
decommissioning
- Provision of a standardised tool building on the well-established Phast architecture
- Benefit from software economies of scale

- Detection, Ignition and Explosion probabilities
- Explosion Overpressure Exceedance Curves (at each defined target)

New Compartment Fire Model
Bridges the gap between existing Phastfire models and CFD
Builds upon the existing Phast fire
models by combining them in new ways
Fires begin in the source module
Fires allowed to develop and escalatebeyond the source module:
- Overall volume of the flame is conservedand spread over the platform inaccordance with layout and geometry
Also handles scenario where fire walls
are damaged or removed by initialexplosion prior to fire

Flame grows in size. Spreads toadjacent module (represented as

Spill rate: 11.0kg/s
Spill rate: 16.0kg/s
Fire in adjacent module now grows larger
and it extends outside platform in multiplelocations. External wind effects now tilt theexternal flames.
Fire now at maximum size inside the module. Firemodel considers transition of burning process from
fuel controlled to ventilation controlled inside themodule. This is shown as a similar fire size insidethe module (despite the increased spill rate) coupledwith increased external fires

Overview of Typical Results (1)
Results related to frequency, consequence and risk results
Frequency results
- Generally frequencies per year for the specific end events
- Grouped frequencies per year according to high-level hazard categories- Grouped frequencies by area of the platform
Consequence results
- Discharge, release rate data (by event scenario and safety system) including flow rate,
duration- Explosion results: EXPRESS / DAL detailed results; overpressure / impact at targets;
escalation result
- Fire results: fire and radiation extent; impact at targets; escalation result
- Toxic results: dispersion extent; impact at targets
- Smoke results: dispersion extent; impact at targets

Overview of Typical Results (2)
Personnel risk
- Number of fatalities by area, by event, by immediate / escape / evacuation
- LSIR (Location Specific Individual Risk). The frequency with which a person located in aparticular area would become fatalities. This can be calculated on the assumption that a
person is constantly present in an area, i.e. 365 days per year and 24 hours per day.- Maybe LSIR contours not so relevant for offshore. But areas may be colour coded according to LSIR
results similar to LSIR contours
- NOTE LSIR is key as all other calculations use it as basis
- Potential loss of life (PLL) per area and for the entire facility
- FAR (Fatal accident rate), for personnel inside the plant. The fatal accident rate (FAR) is theexpected number of fatalities per 108 hours of exposure:
- FAR value for a defined group of personnel e.g. process operators.
- FAR value for one specific area (Area FAR)
- IRPA (Individual Risk per Annum). The probability of a given individual becoming a fatality in
a year as a result of their work associated with an installation or group of installations.Positional IRPA
- FN curves, Societal risk or Aggregate risk

Towards the Future - Timeline
Safeti Offshore initial development project will run until end of 2012
Initial project use within DNV from early 2013
Timescales for commercialisation and rollout to our existing Phast Risk customers is
not yet defined:- We would greatly welcome your feedback on this topic
If anyone has specific needs for their own Offshore QRA analysis, now is a goodtime to talk with us. We have the possibility to include:
- New calculation models
- Specific features and customisations
- Additional reporting mechanisms
