Abstract

Prior to moving from define phase to execution phase on a given project, the typical projectprotocol is to perform a critical process and instrumentation drawing (P&ID) review as atransition from ?issued for information or preliminary design? to ?issued for design orHAZOP?.

The objectives of a critical P&ID review are to (1) identify commercially-positive designchanges early in the project lifecycle to reduce downstream implementation costs, (2)identify operational concerns to ensure optimal resolution and long-term operationaleffectiveness, and (3) identify safety vulnerabilities for early application of inherently saferdesign (ISD) principles where possible and early identification of safety integrity levels (SIL)for required safety-instrumented systems (SIS).

Companies perform critical P&ID reviews using various evaluation methods, including P&IDsymbology/element checklists, process hazard analysis (e.g. Checklist, HAZID, andHAZOP), and ?cold-eyes? review. Each of these approaches provides structure to a criticalP&ID review; however, each also provides opportunities for commercial, operability, andsafety vulnerabilities to remain in the design when applied independently.

The author posit that use of a hybrid HAZOP/LOPA process hazard analysis methodologyto conduct critical P&ID reviews results in a more rigorous evaluation and reduces thelikelihood for commercial, operability, and safety vulnerabilities to persist into thedesign/execution phase of projects. In this paper, the authors present the advantages anddisadvantages of using a hybrid HAZOP/LOPA approach for critical P&ID reviews. Theyalso provide recommendations to enhance the effectiveness of the HAZOP/LOPAmethodology when applied to critical P&ID reviews. Specifically, the authors provideexamples of commercial benefits realized, enhanced operational insight, ISD successes,and application pitfalls when applying a hybrid HAZOP/LOPA PHA methodology to a criticalP&ID review.

The target audience for this paper includes project managers, project engineers, EH&Smanagers, PSM coordinators, and operators; however, anyone involved with small or largecapital projects may also benefit from this paper's content.
