A large number of manual auxiliary operations are needed in the loading and unloading operations at oil terminal, and most accidents of loading and unloading operations are caused by human error. In order to find out the human error modes that affect the safety of oil terminal and evaluate the risk level of human error, a method of CREAM combining with fuzzy probability was proposed in this paper. 18 human error modes are identified in total by using the CREAM method to identify the behaviors and human error modes of the loading and unloading operations. Aiming at the problem that it is difficult to obtain accurate statistical data for human error probability, the human error probabilities of 18 human error modes are calculated by using fuzzy probability method. Besides, the risk level of each human error mode and the quantitative evaluation results are obtained. Compared with the statistical data of enterprise accidents, the method proposed in this paper can get accurate evaluation results.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
