A HAZOP study is a structured, detailed review carried out during design and operations to test the resilience of a process against deviations from its intended design conditions. Unlike HAZID, which identifies hazards at a broader level, HAZOP systematically examines each process section to evaluate how parameters such as flow, pressure, or temperature could deviate and lead to safety or operability concerns.
At PRISM, our facilitators guide multi-disciplinary teams through a disciplined review that captures causes, consequences, safeguards, and recommended actions for each deviation. The outcome is a comprehensive HAZOP Report that documents the analysis and provides a defensible basis for design validation, further risk assessments such as LOPA/SIL, and assurance that operational risks are being managed effectively.
