A new design concept of Blowout Preventer for decision support
Lee, Shenae; Lundteigen, Mary Ann; Paltrinieri, Nicola; Liu, Yiliu; Rød, Magne; Dale, John (Chapter, 2017)The Blowout Preventer (BOP) system is used for controlling blowout risks in drilling operations. The system is implemented to shut down an oil and gas well when the well fluids have entered the wellbore. All BOP systems ... -
A Prevention Approach For Chemical Process Risk Management: Retrieving Knowledge From Relevant Databases Through Machine Learning Techniques
Santini, Davide (Master thesis, 2019)With the new digital devices, the amount of generated data is continuously increasing. Through the World Wide Web, every type of data may be stored in database. The birth of the industry 4.0 represents the involvement of ... -
A system engineering approach to subsea spill risk management
Bucelli, Marta; Utne, Ingrid Bouwer; Salvo Rossi, Pierluigi; Paltrinieri, Nicola (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)In recent years, environmental protection has received more attention in society. In addition to the ecological effect of a hydrocarbon release into the sea, its environmental impact is assessed by considering the amount ... -
Accident Frequency Evaluation to Support Dynamic RiskStudies
Landucci, Gabriele; Paltrinieri, Nicola (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016) -
Advanced techniques for Environmental Risk Assessment within the Oil & Gas sector
Ricciu, Marta (Master thesis, 2019)Olje- og gassinstallasjoner i sensitive områder med tøffe miljøforhold kan kreve forbedret risikovervåkning, vurdering og styring for å forhindre og begrense skaden forårsaket av utilsiktet hydrokarbonutslipp i sjøen. Dette ... -
An empirical case design and stress test addressing hidden, dynamic and emergent vulnerabilities of society
Okstad, Eivind Halvard; Grøtan, Tor Olav; Paltrinieri, Nicola (Chapter, 2017)The analytical framework ‘New Strains of Society’ deals with the effects of hidden, dynamic and emerging threats and vulnerabilities of society, and the possible handling of this. Empirical case studies aim to enhance the ... -
An Integrated Approach to Support the Dynamic Risk Assessment of Complex Industrial Accidents
Paltrinieri, Nicola; Landucci, Gabriele; Salvo Rossi, Pierluigi (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Recent major accidents in the offshore oil and gas (O&G) industry have showed inadequate assessment of system risk and demonstrated the need to improve risk analysis. While direct causes often differ, the failure to update ... -
Analysis of domino scenarios in chemical and process facilities operating in harsh environmental conditions
Bucelli, Marta; Landucci, Gabriele; Haugen, Stein; Paltrinieri, Nicola; Cozzani, Valerio (Chapter, 2018)In the framework of chemical and process industry, accidental fires may lead to damages to equipment with severe consequences and possible domino effects. The availability and effectiveness of safety measures, aimed at ... -
Approach to the selection of strategies for emerging risk management considering uncertainty as the main decision variable in occupational contexts
Brocal, Francisco; Paltrinieri, Nicola; Gonzalez-Gaya, C; Sebastian, M A; Reniers, Genserik (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Emerging risk models are still scarce and far from agreed upon. They are currently the focus of increasing interest in the occupational context. Consequently, frameworks that deal with emerging risk management in industrial ... -
