Value Justification of Safe Distances from Trunk-Lines by the Methods of Quantitative Risk Assessment

Abstract

Abstract. The paper discusses the methods of substantiation of safe distances from the pipelines to transport WFLH (Wide Fraction of Light Hydrocarbons) by the methods of quantitative risk assessment. Recommendations are given to maintain the level of probability of occurrence of an accident or failure, as well as their consequences within the given limits of the regulations. Viewed technique was tested on a specific example of the pipeline.
