Many incidents have occurred because organisations have failed to learn from lessons of the past. This means that there is room for improvement in the way organisations analyse incidents, generate measures to remedy identified weaknesses and prevent reoccurrence: the learning from incidents process. To improve that process, it is necessary to gain insight into the steps of this process and to identify factors that hinder learning (bottlenecks). This paper presents a model that enables organisations to analyse the steps in a learning from incidents process and to identify the bottlenecks. The study describes how this model is used in a survey and in 3 exploraorganisational learning incident survey learning potential case studies

The management of aging of plants has become an important issue for oil and gas (O&G) companies that intend to extend the lifetime of their facilities. Important requirements are that the installations must be safe and economical to remain in operation. This can be achieved by implementing aging plant management programs to control and mitigate the degradation of the facilities. Aging plants have been a crucial topic for several years within the nuclear power industry, but it is a relatively novel area for the offshore O&G industry. To develop a successful aging plant management program for an existing offshore O&G installation, it is necessary not only to learn from the experience of other industries but also to understand and address the specific challenges for managing the aging of these facilities. The objective of this article is to outline these issues and to highlight future challenges. © 2011 American Institute of Chemical Engineers Process Saf Prog 2011

“…Bhimavarapu and Doerr [1] show a semiquantitative risk assessment methodology to prioritize recommendations considering the observed undesirable conditions that may raise the probability and/or the severity of loss events, comparing the cost of risk reduction with the improvements. In accordance to Johansson [2] usually investments in fire safety are initially not seen as a profit and are only considered as costs (investment and maintenance costs).…”

Safety is one of the major concerns of process safety engineers in most industrial facilities all over the world. To this scope, some events play an important role once the effect of their consequences can be assumed as totally undesirable. One of these events refers to the occurrence of a fire. Such event can result in catastrophic consequences for life, equipment, and continuity of activities or even leading to environmental damage. A fire protection equipment with low reliability means that this equipment are often unavailable and thus the risk of a fire increases. Maintenance of fire protection equipment is very important because this kind of systems is mostly in a dormant mode, which gives uncertainty about their operability when demanded in a real situation of fire. This article outlines the importance of tests, inspection, and maintenance operations in the context of a fire sprinkler system and proposes a methodology based on international standards and supported by test/inspection reports to correct the frequency of these actions according to the level of degradation of the components and regarding safety purposes.
