Quantitative Risk Assessment
Quantitative risk assessment (QRA) is
used by companies in several ways including analyzing and ranking
scenarios identified in process hazard analysis; providing quantitative
data for use in decision making on risk; and comparing alternative
process options.
The performance of a complete QRA for
a process requires highly skilled staff and few companies employ such
individuals thus suggesting the need for outside experts.
Services Offered
Primatech uses a variety of methods
tailored to each situation to calculate accident probabilities and
consequences in order to determine risk.
Primatech combines accident
consequences and probabilities into various risk measures including
indices, individual risk, and societal risk. Results are presented as
point estimates, risk contours, or frequency-number (F-N) curves.
Usually, the risk measures are compared with risk acceptability criteria
such as limit lines. We also evaluate risk uncertainties, sensitivities
and importance for consideration in decision making.
Primatech has available modeling tools and data
needed to perform QRAs. We are experienced in using them in a variety of
projects.
