Dynamic assessment of safety barriers preventing escalation in offshore Oil&Gas

Oil&Gas activities in the arctic and subarctic regions are characterized by several challenges related to the harsh but sensitive environment in which they are carried out. The weather may deteriorate facility components at a higher rate, and delay operations, emergency and evacuation procedures. Moreover, these regions host unique ecosystems, and their preservation is a worldwide priority. For this reason, a comprehensive and systematic approach for risk analysis is necessary to prevent major accidents and comply with Arctic pollution control.
