Applications of machine learning methods for engineering risk assessment–A review
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)The purpose of this article is to present a structured review of publications utilizing machine learning methods to aid in engineering risk assessment. A keyword search is performed to retrieve relevant articles from the ... -
Approach to the selection of strategies for emerging risk management considering uncertainty as the main decision variable in occupational contexts
(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 ... -
Assessment of risk tolerance for future autonomous offshore installations
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)The future normally unmanned production concepts for offshore petroleum installations in the North Sea and associated waters are briefly outlined. A case study is summarised for a fictitious normally unmanned facility, and ... -
Clarifying the concept of operational risk assessment in the oil and gas industry
(Journal article, 2018)There is an increasing interest in risk and safety research to reflect risk fluctuations in operational phase to avoid major accidents from happening. A structured review that covers operational risk assessment, dynamic ... -
Classification of risk to support decision-making in hazardous processes
(Journal article, 2015)Application of risk assessments developed for the design phase to support decision-making in operational settings has exposed weaknesses in how risk is analysed and expressed in an operational context. The purpose of this ... -
Collision avoidance on maritime autonomous surface ships: Operators’ tasks and human failure events
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Numerous research and industry initiatives have increasingly aimed at developing maritime surface autonomous ships (MASS). Among the motivations for the use of MASS is the potential increase in safety when compared to ... -
A decision support system for designing win–win interventions impacting occupational safety and operational performance in ageing workforce contexts
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Many companies are facing issues related to the increasing average age of their workforce, which impacts both operational and occupational safety and health (OSH) performance. In recent years, the ageing workforce (AW) has ... -
An extended FRAM method to check the adequacy of safety barriers and to assess the safety of a socio-technical system
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Safety barriers are used in the system to prevent unwanted events and accidents. Traditional approaches like fault tree or bow-tie method use linear accident models without considering complex interactions of failures of ... -
FPSO Cidade de São Mateus gas explosion - Lessons learned
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)The explosion accident in February 2015 on the Floating Production, Storage and Offloading (FPSO) unit Cidade de São Mateus in the Brazilian offshore sector was the most severe offshore petroleum accident since the Macondo ... -
A generic approach to analysing failures in human – System interaction in autonomy
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Autonomous systems operation will in the foreseeable future rely on the interaction between software, hardware and humans. Efficient interaction and communication between these agents are crucial for safe operation. ... -
Identification and analysis of deficiencies in accident reporting mechanisms for fisheries
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)Commercial fishing is the most dangerous of professional callings, widely recognized as a major source of fatalities and injuries per population size within participating nations. The majority of reported fisheries injury ... -
Implications from major accident causation theories to activity-related risk analysis
(Journal article, 2018)Operational Planning Decisions, which are characterized by short planning time and high frequency in the operational phase, has received little attention in risk and safety research in oil and gas industry. Activity ... -
An integrated safety and security analysis for cyber-physical harm scenarios
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Increasing digitalization and autonomous solutions in physical systems promise to enhance their performance, cost-efficiency and reliability. However, the integration of novel information technologies with safety-related ... -
Learning about risk: Machine learning for risk assessment
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Risk assessment has a primary role in safety-critical industries. However, it faces a series of overall challenges, partially related to technology advancements and increasing needs. There is currently a call for continuous ... -
Major accident prevention illustrated by hydrocarbon leak case studies: A comparison between Brazilian and Norwegian offshore functional petroleum safety regulatory approaches
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Despite laws, regulations, or risk management tools designed to avoid loss events, a hydrocarbon leak (HCL) in an offshore oil and gas platform1 is a major hazard event that reveals failures in risk control. In addition, ... -
Major accidents in Norwegian fish farming
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)The Norwegian fish farming industry is experiencing accidents that may have serious consequences for fish-farm operators, the environment, and the farmed fish themselves. Fatalities and serious personnel injuries, mass ... -
