Haugen, Stein; Edwin, Nathaniel John; Vinnem, Jan Erik; Brautaset, Olav; Nyheim, Ole Magnus; Zhu, Tiantian; Tuft, Vegard Larsen (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)Design of complex technical systems with potential for major accidents, such as nuclear power plants, offshore installations and high hazard process facilities, is often supported by quantitative risk analysis (QRA). This ... -
Allision risk analysis of offshore petroleum installations on the Norwegian Continental Shelf—an empirical study of vessel traffic patterns
Hassel, Martin; Utne, Ingrid Bouwer; Vinnem, Jan Erik (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)The Norwegian Petroleum Safety Authority (PSA) requires offshore petroleum operators on the Norwegian Continental Shelf (NCS) to perform risk assessments of impacts (allisions) between passing ships and offshore installations. ... -
An allision risk model for passing vessels and offshore oil and gas installations on the Norwegian Continental Shelf
Hassel, Martin; Utne, Ingrid Bouwer; Vinnem, Jan Erik (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)This article presents a new risk model for estimating the probability of allision risk (the impact between a ship under way and a stationary installation) from passing vessels on the Norwegian Continental Shelf (NCS). ... -
Analysis of Dynamic Positioning System Accidents and Incidents with Emphasis on Root Causes and Barrier Failures
Dong, Yining; Rokseth, Børge; Vinnem, Jan Erik; Utne, Ingrid Bouwer (Chapter, 2017)The accidental statistics from 2003 to 2013 revealed that the frequency of floating production storage and offloadingshuttle tanker (FPSO-ST) collision risk was significantly above the cut-off limit. There is a need for ... -
Analysis of hydrocarbon leaks and verification as an operational barrier
Vinnem, Jan Erik (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015)Prevention of hydrocarbon (HC) leaks is important; they are the most critical precursor events that may lead to major accidents, such as the Piper Alpha catastrophe in 1988. The number of HC leaks on offshore production ... -
Building safety in the offshore petroleum industry: Development of risk-based major hazard risk indicators at a national level
Zhen, Xingwei; Vinnem, Jan Erik; Næss, Sturle (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)There has been an important controversy over whether the series of major accidents at Chinese Bohai Bay in 2011, i.e. the Penglai 19-3 and Suizhong 36-1 oil spills, are a sign of systematic safety problems in the Chinese ... -
Challenges with bringing collision risk models used in the north sea and norwegian sea to the Barents Sea
Hassel, Martin; Utne, Ingrid Bouwer; Vinnem, Jan Erik (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015)Norwegian offshore oil and gas exploration and production is moving into new and previously unexplored areas further north, such as the Barents Sea. This poses multiple new challenges in design, development and operation. ... -
Combined Risk Indicator for Major Accident Precursors and Barriers in the Trends in Risk Level Project
Stensland, Marius (Master thesis, 2013)Since the ?trends in risk level? project first was started, the weights used to estimate the risk level on the Norwegian Continental Shelf has more or less been the same; five sets of generic weights, one for each type of ... -
Decision-making for Dynamic Positioning Operations in the Offshore Industry – A Human Factors based Approach
Hogenboom, Sandra (Doctoral theses at NTNU;2020:311, Doctoral thesis, 2020) -
Decisions and decision support for major accident prevention in the process industries
Kongsvik, Trond; Almklov, Petter; Haavik, Torgeir K; Haugen, Stein; Vinnem, Jan Erik; Schiefloe, Per Morten (Journal article, 2015)Decision making is a central component in the management of safety-critical operations. Some attempts have been made to employ Quantitative Risk Analysis as input to such decisions. Although adequate for long-term planning ... -
Deriving Verification Objectives and Scenarios for Maritime Systems Using the Systems-Theoretic Process Analysis
Rokseth, Børge; Utne, Ingrid Bouwer; Vinnem, Jan Erik (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)The process applied for verification of maritime systems lacks the ability to properly examine complex networks of interconnections. Verification is mainly focused on single failures of components, not properly accounting ... -
