1. Introduction. Hazard and operability study (HAZOP) is applied worldwide as one of the process hazard analysis (PHA) techniques for processing plants [].HAZOP is implemented on a legal basis for the licensing of processing plants in accordance with the process safety management of the US Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) and the Seveso provisions of the EU [].
WhatsApp: +86 18203695377HAZOP, or Hazard and Operability Analysis, is a structured and systematic technique used primarily for risk assessment. This method specializes in identifying potential hazards and operability problems in systems during the design and operational phases, particularly in the chemical, pharmaceutical, oil and gas, and other process industries.

WhatsApp: +86 18203695377A typical HAZOP analysis can take 18 weeks to complete, costing over 13 00025 000 per week. By an OSHA estimate, approximately 25 000 plant sites in the United States require a PHA (Freeman, Lee McNamara, 1992). An estimated 5 billion is spent annually by the chemical process industries (CPI) to perform PHAs and related activities.

It evolved from the application of the critical examination study method to the design of the plant to identify any design deficiencies and deviations.

Thus, over time, we have removed the part of HAZOP that actually helped pay the bill for the HAZOP by making the plant more efficient!
