Nowadays, because of the advancement of technology and subsequently unpredictable events, it is important for addressing risk management as an important part of projects and business. In this paper, a novel approach based on Monte Carlo simulation has been proposed for risk assessment, which considers the co-occurrence of risks. In this method, the output of extended and classic Monte Carlo simulation is applied for co-occurrence-based risk assessment (CORA) and prioritization. Also, the magnitude in each source of uncertainty has been determined by a new approach. The proposed model investigates risk's relationship and determines the type of effect as resonance or reduction in addition to identifying and analyzing the risks. Also, a system dynamic model is applied to illustrate the relationships of risks. Finally, this method is applied to a petrochemical project. Five risks as temperature, rain, labor, cost, and inflation are considered in this project. Based on the numerical results, the most important risk is inflation. Also, there is a significant different between the result of the proposed model in comparison with model that ignore the co-occurrence of risks. CORA helps the manager to consider all aspect of risks and help them to have a better decision.
