The book is a guide for Layers of Protection Analysis (LOPA)
practitioners. It explains the onion skin model and in particular,
how it relates to the use of LOPA and the need for non-safety
instrumented independent protection layers. It provides specific
guidance on Independent Protection Layers (IPLs) that are not
Safety Instrumented Systems (SIS). Using the LOPA methodology,
companies typically take credit for risk reductions accomplished
through non-SIS alternatives; i.e. administrative procedures,
equipment design, etc. It addresses issues such as how to ensure
the effectiveness and maintain reliability for administrative
controls or inherently safer, passive concepts. This book will
address how the fields of Human Reliability Analysis, Fault Tree
Analysis, Inherent Safety, Audits and Assessments, Maintenance, and
Emergency Response relate to LOPA and SIS. The book will separate
IPL s into categories such as the following: * Inherent Safety *
eliminates a scenario or fundamentally reduces a hazard *
Preventive/Proactive * prevents initiating event from occurring
such as enhanced maintenance * Preventive/Active * stops chain of
events after initiating event occurs but before an incident has
occurred such as high level in a tank shutting off the pump. *
Mitigation (active or passive) * minimizes impact once an incident
has occurred such as closing block valves once LEL is detected in
the dike (active) or the dike preventing contamination of
groundwater (passive).
