- Environmental Risk Assessment (ENVID) - ORS Consulting
Learn more about what is Environmental Risk Assessment (ENVID) and why to perform it, from ORS Consulting Experts. SERVICES Environmental Risk Assessment (ENVID) What is ENVID? Environmental Impact Identification (ENVID) is a structured examination of environmental aspects for a facility for early identification of environmental concerns that may affect environment. The outcome of an ENVID is used to optimize the design and operational philosophy to minimize environmental impact. An ENVID is typically performed as a multi-discipline workshop. Why perform an ENVID? ENVID study is performed to; Identify acute or continuous sources of emission, discharge and waste for an asset or activity; Identify mitigating measures included in design to minimize environmental impact; Propose further mitigating measures to prevent, reduce or control identified sources of emission, discharge and waste; ENVID Study Methodology The ENVID study is carried out as a multidisciplinary workshop with participants from relevant disciplines and operational personnel. The workshop comprises of discussion of environmental hazards consequences, and typically including a coarse risk assessment for each hazard raised, practice and procedures and barrier elements (the corresponding control and mitigation measures). The ENVID review follows a methodology analogous to a Hazard Identification (HAZID) . The ENVID applies a set of guidewords suitable for identification of hazards and sources of emission, discharge and waste. Some examples of ENVID parameters and guidewords: Contact ORS Consulti ng to identify the potential environmental risks associated with your project.

- Flare System Dynamic Modelling - Approaches & Values
Join our upcoming webinar, "Flare System Dynamic Modelling - Approaches & Benefits," on 24th September from 12 PM to 1 PM CET. Learn from experts Dario Pozza and David Garden about the latest techniques and benefits of dynamic modelling for flare systems. Perfect for professionals in the design, operation, and safety of offshore installations and onshore plants. Register now! Finished Flare System Dynamic Modelling - Approaches & Values This webinar from ORS will present the common approaches used to apply dynamic modelling techniques for Flare systems as well as benefits of undertaking such a study. The team will share experience obtained from previous projects undertaken for installations in the UK and Norwegian Continental Shelf. WATCH REPLAY Flare systems for offshore installations and onshore plants are a critical piece of equipment, which provide safe relief of inventory during both routine operations as well as emergency situations. Their design is often complex and comprised of multiple headers and sources from the entire complex, making it difficult to understand and predict their behavior. Dynamic modelling is a technique used to perform time-dependent analysis of a system, which can be applied to flare systems to investigate any potential operating or emergency scenarios and validate more traditional 'steady-state' assumptions. This is equally useful as a verification exercise for existing systems as well as during the design phase for brownfield modifications and can often result in significant CAPEX and OPEX savings on projects.

- Technical Safety and Risk Management — ORS Consulting
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.

- Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD)
Enhance safety and risk assessment with Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD). Simulate fires, explosions and toxic releases to predict hazardous event outcomes and support informed decision-making. SERVICES Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) INTRODUCTION Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulations are essential tools in modelling hazardous events like fires, explosions, and toxic releases. By solving complex equations that describe fluid flow, heat transfer, and chemical reactions, CFD provides detailed insights into how these events unfold. This information is crucial for understanding the behaviour of hazardous materials such as Hydrocarbons, Hydrogen, Ammonia, CO2, NOx, etc. and predicting their impact on the environment and human health. APPLICATIONS OF CFD IN HAZARDOUS EVENT MODELLING Fires CFD can simulate different types of fires such as jet fires and pool fires with their associated heat and duration, as well as the spread of smoke. CFD is helping to design effective gas detection systems, fire suppression systems and evacuation plans. Explosions CFD models can model explosions in confined and unconfined areas (e.g vapour cloud explosions – VCEs), predict blast wave propagation and structural damage, aiding in the development of safer building designs and protective measures. Releases of hazardous fluids CFD simulations can model the dispersion of harmful substances in the air or water (e.g., subsea releases), enabling authorities to implement timely and effective response strategies. CFD can reveal the presence of accumulation zones where hazardous gas accumulates despite the presence of ventilation. BENEFITS OF CFD Integrating CFD simulations into Quantitative Risk Assessments (QRA) enhances the accuracy and reliability of risk evaluations. By providing a detailed, scenario-specific analysis, CFD helps identify potential hazards, assess their likelihood, and evaluate the effectiveness of mitigation measures. This comprehensive approach supports informed decision-making, ensuring that safety measures are both effective and efficient, ultimately protecting lives and property.’ CFD is often a tool of choice to support the decision-making process, especially in situations where the consequences of a hazardous event are difficult to predict with engineering judgement or simpler models, but foreseen to be potentially severe. CFD simulations would in these cases help reaching a consensus between the project stakeholders. CFD software are powerful tools which can perform thousands of different scenarios in a few hours and allows for flexibility. The 3D models used in the simulations and the parameters defining the scenario (e.g., fluid composition, wind conditions, ignition location) can be easily adjusted to reflect the latest configuration of your plant, process or equipment and enables performing sensitivity calculations. CFD modelling yet requires expertise in order to generate accurate and credible scenario. Although most of the CFD software available today are robust and can generate results whatever the inputs are, one must be careful with the interpretation of the results. A scenario wrongly set-up, a poor quality of the mesh/grid, may lead to under- or over-estimating the outcomes of a hazardous event (e.g., too low fire radiation or explosion pressures) and will lead to incorrect conclusions. Hence it is recommended to seek support from competent personnel to perform the work. OUR EXPERTISE IN CFD ORS has worked with numerous projects involving CFD studies and our experts will be able to support you in your request. Please feel free to reach out in case you would like to discuss more about our CFD services.
