What’s Happening in the Industry?
• What makes F&G Studies difficult?o HSE 8 years of offshore data – 60% of known releases were detectedo Current technical industry standards
• API Pub 2031 (1991)• IEC 60079• ISA TR84.00.07• Most clients have internal standards• Best industry practice
o Traditional studies• Experience based • CFD modeling involves high cost to place very few detectors

Definitions (ISA TR84.00.07)
• Geographic Coverage : The fraction of the geometric area or volume of a defined monitored process area that, if a hazard were to occur in a given geographic location, would be detected considering the defined voting arrangemento In other words: % of area covered
• Scenario Coverage : The fraction of the hazard scenarios from process equipment within a defined and monitored process area that can be detected considering the frequency and magnitude of the hazard scenarios and the defined voting arrangemento In other words : % of scenarios detected

BakerRisk’s F&G Studies and F>ool©
• BakerRisk’s F&G studies assist our clients in the placement and optimization of fire and gas detectors.
• We use F>ool©, a proprietary software developed by BakerRisk.o Allows detector placement and coverage to be evaluated and viewed in a 3D environment.o Allows consequence and risk results to be imported and used to place and optimize detectors.

Fire and Gas Detection
• Fire and gas detectors are located based on consequence and risk contours, client guidelines, and industry standards.
• Gas detectorso Point gas detectors are given coordinates and a height to show a physical location in 3Do Line detectors are given coordinates and a height to allow them to interact with the 3D modelo Acoustic detectors are given coordinates and a height to allow them to interact with 3D model
• Fire Detectorso Conical flame detectors , heat detectors and fusible plugs

F&G Model
3D model is built with plot plan and site visit data
Flammable, toxic, and fire scenarios are imported from
Consequence Models
Detector locations are optimized and coverage calculated per risk calcs

Risk Based Approach
• ISA TR84.00.07
Three main components:1. Detection Coverage2. FG system availability3. Mitigation Effectiveness
BakerRisk Webinar Series, F&G Detector Mapping 30
-
Risk Based Approach
• Quantitative Risk Analysis (QRA)o Use QRA Societal or Individual Risk Results to calculate the detector priorityo Helps prioritizing the implementation of detectors in a phased approacho Beneficial in performing cost benefit analysis of adding detection
Classification Societal Risk Threshold (fatalities/year)
High >1E-4Significant >1E-5Suggested

Conducted randomly to determine the response for various release sizes, orientation and weather conditions.
Tests were performed in late morning and afternoon, night, and early morning to capture different wind conditions

BakerRisk Test Case Study (cont.)
• For this presentation, ½″ and ¾″ releases are considered
• A total of 58 tests were conducted for ½″ and ¾″ releases
• Detectors were not moved throughout these tests to ensure proper comparison
• All detectors were located at 1.5ft

Case Study – Scenario Coverage
• Considerations in the calculationso Initiating event frequency of the release occurring is 1o Probability of wind in the direction of release is considered 1 (winds were steady
from south-southwest, predominant wind direction)
• Based on the above considerations, scenario coverage was calculated for each of the 5 release directions and then for the overall scenario of a release occurring in any of the 5 directions under different wind conditions
