What If Fmea FTA ETA What-If/Check List PHA

The document provides an overview of HAZards and OPerability (HAZOP) analysis, a qualitative technique used to identify hazards and operability problems. HAZOP identifies failure modes, causes, and consequences by using "guide words" to examine deviations from intended operations of a process. A multidisciplinary team reviews process documentation like Piping and Instrument Diagrams and conducts a step-by-step analysis, documenting deviations, causes, consequences, safeguards, and recommendations. The goal is a preliminary examination of risks to help define needed safeguards before detailed design.

HAZOP Hazards and Operability Analysis
HAZOP was developed by Lawley (1974) of ICI. Based on early publication by Elliott & Owen (1968).
HAZOP is a more involved qualitative method used to identify both hazards and operability problems using ‘guide
words’ to prompt team members in identifying deviations that can lead to the failures. Similar to a Failure Mode
and Effect Analysis (FMEA), HAZOP identifies failure modes of a process, their causes and resulting
consequences. However, rather than starting with failures, HAZOP uses guide words to identify deviations from
intended operations, and then traces back to the possible causes and failure modes. The basis for a HAZOP is a
critical examination of information found in a process flow sheet, a plant layout, equipment specification or a
Piping and Instrument Drawing (P&ID).
