The paper proposes an innovative system of supervision and data acquisition, oriented to fire safety through a dynamic risk analysis, called SCADRA (Supervisory Control and Dynamic Risk Analysis). SCADRA achieves operation and management benefits for safety, functionality and energy optimization, by means of dynamic control and monitoring measures. A 'Smart Tunnel' can be defined as a model where technical systems are designed and installed in an advanced way, by using digital components and sensors.

The technological innovation of systems in tunnels allows to reach high levels not only in energy efficiency but also in safety, where the legislation requires safety measures based on systematic considerations of all aspects of the system (infrastructure, operations, users, vehicles).In many existent tunnels, some structural safety measures could be implemented only through technical solutions with a disproportionate cost because of difficulties due to old infrastructures, unfavorable orographic situation or tunnels in sequence in wich simultaneously road works could cause a paralysis of t

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.
