Year: 2008 Language: english Author: John Atherton, Frederic Gil Genre: Reference book Publisher: Wiley Edition: 1st ISBN: 978-0-470-12204-4 Format: PDF Quality: eBook Pages count: 349 Description: The objective of this book is not to replace investigation reports: each of the incidents described below led to hundreds, if not thousands, pages thick reports and many specialized books have been written by experts (see short bibliography after each incident section). However, it is felt that there is a need to disseminate more widely and with a simple, user-friendly tool, the main lessons from major past incidents. Unfortunately, young graduates or even experienced technicians have often never heard of Flixborough or Piper Alpha. And if they did, few of them have received enough information to be able to transfer lessons to their current activities. This book’s only ambition is to be an awareness-raising tool and to give the useful references that may be needed for more detailed analysis. These documents come from articles published in the specialized press and are intended for educational purposes only. Some errors may appear, caused by lack of information, inaccurate information or necessary simplification of the hundreds of pages published on each incident by investigators. Their use must thus be limited to the promotion of safety awareness on the basis of general recommendations. Note on the arbitrary classification of the incidents: These incidents have been classified under what the authors believe are the major failing that led to the accident. However, all accidents have a umber of contributing causes and many authors may well choose to list a particular incident under another heading (e.9. the Piper Alpha incident has been classified under “Permit to Work” but can equally be considered under heading such as “auditing”, “lack of HAZID”, “Design”...). Therefore, readers should make their own judgment as to how they wish to use this information to drive particular elements within their own safety management systems and training programs Additional info: Quote: It should not be necessary for each generation to rediscover principles of process safety which the generation before discovered.
