Accidental risk assessment methodology for industries

Objective

The project aim is to develop a new risk assessment methodology that allows evaluating the risk level of an industrial plant by taking into account prevention measures against major accidents. The methodology will support the harmonised implementation of the SEVESO II Directive.
The project is built to result in the composition of an integrated risk index based on the definition of Reference Scenarios and combining:
1 . Scenario consequence severity
2 . Safety management efficiency affecting the probability of occurrence of major accidents
3. Environment vulnerability. The methodology will be validated with case studies. Efforts are given to disseminate the methodology to decision-makers in charge of the control of major accident hazards. Thus the project development will be continuously monitored by a review team gathering risk experts from industry and EU competent authorities in order to ensure the widest acceptance of the approach.
