This publication is based
around an analysis of an offshore CO2 dispersion
modelling exercise, carried out by the Health and Safety Laboratory for the
Energy Institute. It provides a useful
example from which individuals could develop further hazard models, and
describes how some of the hazards might be mitigated. This document was
produced to compliment the already published onshore version of this document: Technical guidance on hazard analysis for onshore carbon capture
installations and onshore pipelines.
In addition it acts as a
guide for the health and safety hazard analysis for offshore management of
pipelines and platforms, where CO2 will
be present as a part of carbon capture and storage (CCS) installations;
communicate existing knowledge on pipeline and offshore facility design and
operation; and identify areas of uncertainty where existing knowledge cannot be
applied with sufficient confidence, considering the scale and nature of
expected CCS operations in the future.
This publication should supplement rather than substitute
regulatory requirements, many of which are referenced within the text. The
intention is to allow project developers and designers to meet their statutory
obligations with increased certainty.
This publication provides
information on:
- CO2 hazard analysis, for both
offshore facilities and pipelines.
- Some design and operational considerations for offshore
installations.
- Some design and operational considerations for offshore
pipelines.
This publication provides
information for:
- Project engineers and managers who are procuring new CCS
installations and pipelines.
- Engineering designers involved in the design of offshore CCS
installations.
- CCS industry participants who wish to widen their knowledge of
CCS technology and the properties of CO2 relevant
to offshore installations.
- Safety advisers and professionals who need to understand the
pertinent properties and health and safety hazards of CO2.
