A network based approach to envisage potential accidents in offshore process facilities

TL;DR: The proposed method is able to differentiate the consequence of specific events and predict probabilities for such events along with continual updating of consequence probabilities of fire and explosion scenarios taking into account.

Assessing seismic vulnerability of urban road networks by a Bayesian network approach

TL;DR: A Bayesian network (BN) method for seismic vulnerability assessment of an urban road network considering spatial seismic hazard with different levels of ground motion intensities, vulnerability of the components and effect of structural damage of components within the road network to the network functionality is proposed.

Process system failure evaluation method based on a Noisy-OR gate intuitionistic fuzzy Bayesian network in an uncertain environment

TL;DR: A Noisy-OR gate Bayesian network method based on intuitionistic fuzzy theory is proposed in cases of imprecise and insufficient historical data, which can provide a more suitable result in an uncertain environment and the weak links of the crude oil tank system are identified through Bayesian reasoning and sensitivity analysis.

Analyzing the critical risk factors associated with oil and gas pipeline projects in Iraq

TL;DR: This paper focuses on identifying and analyzing the risks caused by TDP in order to develop a holistic Risk Management Model (RMM), and reveals that terrorism, sabotage, oleum product transportation and theft are the most critical safety risks, official corruption and lawlessness the most influential factors for regulatory risks.
Journal ArticleDOI

Resilience Analysis of a Remote Offshore Oil and Gas Facility for a Potential Hydrocarbon Release.

TL;DR: This study attempts to relate the resilience capacity of a system to the system's absorptive, adaptive, and restorative capacities to influence predisaster and postdisaster strategies that can be mapped to enhance the resilience of the system.

Improving the analysis of dependable systems by mapping fault trees into Bayesian networks

TL;DR: It is shown that any FT can be directly mapped into a BN and that basic inference techniques on the latter may be used to obtain classical parameters computed from the former, i.e. reliability of the Top Event or of any sub-system, criticality of components, etc.
