System Reliability and Availability are a staple in most businesses. It is the probability that a component, part, system, or process performs correctly within a specified period. A reliable system is one that will function appropriately with a minimum need for maintenance or repair SERVICES System Reliability and Availability Up Anchor 1 Reliability is a staple in most businesses. It is the probability that a component, part, system, or process performs correctly within a specified period. A reliable system is one that will function appropriately with a minimum need for maintenance or repair Most systems in facilities constitute interconnected components, with each component playing its role and helping to achieve a performance level. A system reliability assessment allows businesses to identify weaknesses of these components and quantify the impact of their failures on the overall system or process. ORS is a leading system reliability solutions provider. We are helping businesses and facilities with a wide range of services, including uptime and availability assessments, Fault Tree Modelling, among others. System Reliability and Availability Related Studies FMEA/FMECA FMEA (Failure Modes and Effect Analysis) and FMECA (Failure Modes Effects and Critical Analysis) are methodologies used to determine potential failure modes in a system and provide corrective measures for each failure mode. FMECA is similar to FMEA with regard to risk assessment and failure analysis. However, in addition to FMEA functionalities, FMECA ranks failure modes in order of severity. RAM Analysis RAM analysis is a method to define the production capacity and availability of a system to keep producing. This analysis involves a mapping of the different failure modes, frequencies, consequences, and their effect on production. RAM Analysis helps to reduce costs, debottleneck and provide input to spare parts and maintenance planning. Learn more > Production Assurance Production assurance describes the certainty of a facility achieving its production goals and meeting its intended end-results. End results may be customer expectations, the safety of a production process, or reduced production costs. Production assurance is particularly important within systems associated with oil and gas exploration and is introduced in ISO 20815:2008 standard. Fault Tree Modeling Fault Tree Modeling is a methodology used for conducting reliability analyses of complex systems. It involves creating a logical representation to model chains or pathways that can lead to failure or an undesirable loss event. It helps to keep systems safe and in desirable operating conditions. System Safety System safety is a risk management methodology that involves the identification and analysis of different hazards in a system, process, or facility. It also involves the provision of measures to eliminate or mitigate the effect of these risks. Among others, system safety is widely applied in the defence industry.

Safety Management is a fundamental activity for all projects and asset operations. Regardless of industries, a project needs to fulfill technical risk-related requirements from local and regional authorities, international standards, and end clients. Navigating the complexity of regulatory compliance requires both experience and a specific skillset in safety management. SERVICES Safety and Compliance Up Anchor 1 Safety Management is a fundamental activity for all projects and asset operations. Regardless of industries, a project needs to fulfil technical risk related requirements from local and regional authorities, international standards and end clients. Navigating the complexity of regulatory compliance requires both experience and a specific skillset in safety management. ORS frequently supports projects, from early concept to, and including, operational phase with safety management. This includes activities such as: Establish the regulatory framework that defines all relevant legal and contractual requirements; Prepare a HSE road map for a project or throughout asset lifecycles; Follow-up and manage technical risk management activities. This includes liaison with various stakeholders and contractors, follow-up of third-party studies, ensuring involvement from all relevant disciplines, and ensuring continuity in the risk management activities. Safety and Compliance Related Studies Project Risk Assessment Project risk assessment is a hands-on application of risk management to ensure that a project is meeting its targets in terms of cost, schedule and HSE. It includes identification of project risks, continuous monitoring and adjustments, as well as identification of measures to control the risk. Project risk assessment allows businesses to make the best choice from the available options needed to achieve a project’s objective. Risk-based interface management Risk-based interface management involves defining, controlling, and communicating information needed to make unrelated services, processes, or equipment co-function. Risk-based interface management assesses and mitigates the possible risks when working with contractors, subcontractors, and clients. Operational Readiness Review An Operational Readiness Review (ORR) is a thorough, proof-based appraisal of the project state before entering operation. ORRs are undertaken to ensure that all activities during engineering process are completed, all critical systems been tested and validated and confirm correct handover to operations. The ORR is a final validation to ensure a safe transition to operational phase for project deliverables. Cybersecurity risk assessment Cybersecurity Risk Assessment serves as a pivotal section of the modern company. Modern companies tend to create operations on a technological platform and, as such, are exposed to the risk of hackers and loss of data. Cybersecurity risk assessment is performed to expose an organization’s vulnerabilities to such attacks and provide solutions. Regulatory Compliance In all industries, all businesses need to comply with regulations from local and regional authorities, industry standards and requirements from end clients within the area of safety and HSEQ. Regulatory compliance is a continuous activity ensuring that relevant requirements are identified, and that the correct decisions are made to avoid delays, business interruptions or accelerated costs. HSE Road Map The HSE Road Map is an activity and document prepared in the initial phase of a project to ensure that the regulatory requirements are identified and that the technical risk management activities are planned to ensure efficient project execution and compliance with HSE-related requirements. Safety Strategy The Safety Strategy is a cornerstone of safety design in a project and is comparable with the technical design basis of a project. The safety strategy links hazard identification, risk analyses, safety studies, and the technical safety design, demonstrating that adequate safety barriers are in place.

Technical safety and risk management is the set of activities to identify hazards and assess and manage risks. Technical risk management is a fundamental part of all sectors and industries where incidents and accidents can cause harm to personnel, environment, asset, or reputation. SERVICES Technical Safety and Risk Management Up Anchor 1 Technical risk management is a set of activities to identify hazards and assess and manage risks. Technical risk management is a fundamental part of all sectors and industries where incidents and accidents can cause harm to personnel, environment, assets, or reputation. The main activities within this area are: Technical risk advisory throughout a project or asset operation to ensure that safety design minimizes harm to personnel, environment, and asset, and meets regulatory requirements; Risk-based workshops for identification of hazards in a multi-discipline and collaborative environment; Performing risk analysis to establish risk picture, based on the frequency and consequence assessment, and benchmark with acceptance criteria. Technical Safety and Risk Related Studies Escape, EvaCuation, and Rescue (EER) Escape Evacuation and Rescue (EER) strategy and assessments ensure that a facility is designed and operated away allowing safety for personnel during the evacuation, availability of muster areas, the quick rescue of personnel, and controlled evacuation. Quantitative Risk Assessments (QRA) A QRA is a method to calculate and evaluate the frequency and consequences of the major accident hazards for a facility. The resulting risk picture is benchmarked with acceptance criteria and is efficient for ensuring a safe and robust design, as well as compliance with regulatory requirements. CFD is used at ORS for assessing the consequences of hazardous events such as fire, explosion, and toxic dispersion as part of QRAs. Gas Dispersion, Explosion and Fire Assessment Process plant layout and mechanical design need to be robust to minimize escalation if a loss of containment occurs. ORS has state of the art software solutions (such as CFD) and expertise for the assessment of dispersion, explosion, and fire (pool, jet, and spray fires) and the ability to interface this with blowdown and flare assessment to minimize the likelihood of vessel rupture in the event a release occurs elsewhere on the plant. Learn more > Safety Case A safety case is a demonstration of how health and safety hazards are managed for a facility. This requires systematic identification of hazards, evaluation of consequences and implementation of risk reducing measures to meet As Low As Reasonably Practicable (ALARP) principles. HAZID/HAZOP Hazard Identification (HAZID) and Hazard and Operability (HAZOP) studies are structured multi-discipline workshops in order to identify hazards for a system design, evaluate the consequences for safety, environment, and asset, and identify measures to reduce the risk. A HAZOP is typically performed for process systems with a potential for loss of containment. Learn more> EHAZOP/CHAZOP Electrical Hazard and Identification (EHAZOP) is similar to HAZOP with regards to identifying hazards and operability issues. However, unlike HAZOP, EHAZOP focuses only on electrical systems. A Control Hazard and Operability Study (CHAZOP) covers programmable control systems (e.g. PLC and SCADA) and IT systems. SAFOP/SIMOPS A Safety and Operability Study (SAFOP) is commonly carried out prior to operations to identify hazards, evaluate consequences and define mitigating measures to avoid accidents and incidents. WHAT-IF WHAT-IF analysis is a structured analytic technique used to determine what systems, activities, operations can go wrong in a facility based on different scenarios. Based on the answers to the what-if questions, a facility can then judge the consequences of the activities that can go wrong. Environmental Risk Assessment (ENVID) An ENVID study helps facilities identify and manage risks related to harm to the environment. It is effective for analyzing waste storage and disposal, emissions, discharge of hazardous substances, as well as the environmental impact of operations. Learn more > Working Environment Health Risk Assessment (WEHRA) A WEHRA study assesses the risks to the health and safety of persons working in a facility based on factors such as noise, vibration, illumination, harsh weather or exposure to chemicals or harmful substances. A WEHRA is efficient to identify measures to achieve an acceptable working environment.
