Scope of RN03 work in Phase 4
 Task 1 – Outline and plan two risk management seminars
 Task 2 – Prepare and carry out risk assessment seminar in arctic conditions/ workshop
with focus on
-
experience exchange
comparative analysis of efficiency of methods and software
required databases to increase safety of offshore operations
practical application of risk assessment in the design process for offshore activities
30 participants, technical experts, risk analysts, authorities
 Task 3 – Prepare and carry out risk management seminar for offshore activites in the
Barents Sea.
-
Emphasis on concrete cases typical for installations in the Barents Sea.
Cases reflecting both the usage of risk management and risk assessment in the development process.
Actual recent accidental events (e.g. Mexican Gulf) will be used to illustrate the risk management process.
100 partcipants, authorities, oil and gas company managers, designers
 Task 4 – Proceedings/Position paper to document the contents of the seminar and the
discussions that take place.

Safety Barriers
A safety barrier is safety critical elements which shall prevent,
control or mitigate a major accident.
The product of technical, operational, and organizational
conditions describe the barrier’s integrity.

Risk Assessment Seminar - Summary
 The importance of assessing the functionality of the safety barrieres and
their influence onf the risk level, reflecting operational, technical, and
organizational conditions
Use the risk assessment to improve and qualify the functionality of the
safety barriers during the design process

Feedback and experience from Risk assessment seminar
 Very good facilities and support from VNIIGAZ
 Partcipants were active; a lot of questions and discussions
 Ambitious cope – ran out of time; needed to cut some topics short
 Positive feedback on the level of technical detail (need to keep technical focus)
 30 participants
 3 lecturers from DNV, one Russian speaking
 Course material handed out in Russian and English

Discussions during the day
 Role of authotities; approval versus consent
 Acceptance criteria for risk; own/defined by operators or authorities ?
 Integrity and failure probabilities of safety barriers
 Integrity and test criteria of fire walls and how to model this in risk assessment
 Use of fault trees to define failure probabilities
 Modelling of gas detector failures
 Probability of failure of fire walls
 How to transfer knowledge attained from risk assessment to the operations phase
 Time limits for assessing hazardous impacts on personell
 Comparison of risk modelling software applied in Russia and Norway
 Etc…

Next seminar – Risk Management
 Technical excellence in risk assessment is
not sufficient to ensure that risks are
properly managed – need to implement the
full management cycle to follow up and
mitigate indentified risk.
Findings from recent accidents
in the offshore industry:
•Lack of risk understanding
 Intention of the seminar is to anchor this
understanding of the importance of risk
management, and what risk management is.
•Insufficient learning from
past/simialar incidents
 This relies on examples from industry and
authorities, to give the complete picture on
”how and why” to do risk management.
 Need active contribution from B2020
sponsors, authorities and stakeholders in
the next seminar to ensure real
experience sharing.
