Hazard and Operability (HAZOP) study is a structured hazard identification technique using a multi-disciplinary team for the identification of process hazards with respect to the design and operation of a facility. The study identifies deviations from process boundaries and records its consequences, safeguards and recommendations.
At Velosi, HAZOP is used as a technique to identify potential hazards in a system and to analyze operability problems that may result in nonconforming products. HAZOP is generally based on a theory that concludes risk events are caused by deviations from design or operating intentions.
Identifying such deviations is usually facilitated by utilizing sets of ‘guide words’ as a methodical list of deviation perspectives. This particular approach is an exceptional feature of the HAZOP methodology that enables to stimulate the imagination of the team members while examining potential deviations.
