Rank top ten severe accidents in energy sector, and investigates their causes and consequences. 3 store locator Discuss the following: (1) What were the physical/technical circumstances that led to the accident? (2) What were the main underlying causes? (3) 3 store locator Why did the accident result in: (i) So many fatalities; (ii) So much harm to the environment etc.? (4) What factors contributed to the escalation of the accident? (5) What were the legal consequences of the accident?
The Paul Scherrer Institut(PSI) developed a database in 1998 which stores records for accidents occuring in the energy industry. This database is called the Energy Related Severe Accident Database (ENSAD), It cover accidents and incidents recorded in the fossil fuel, hydropower and nuclear energy insustries. These incidents are not just limited to the power plants for the energy chains, later development of the database allowed companies 3 store locator to have access to incidents reported in their chain, a view of the costs incurred in the accident and is used to aid companies in development of their safety policies.
The Database has a list of 7 criteria which classify an accident 3 store locator as severe. Only one criteria is needed to be met in order to make the accident meet the classification of a severe accident. These criteria 3 store locator are: 1. There must be at least 5 deaths 2. There must be at least 10 injuries 3. The accident results in at least 200 evacuees 4. There must be a large scale food consumpiton ban 5. There is a release 3 store locator of hydrocarbons, 3 store locator over 10,000 Tonnes 6. The company is placed 3 store locator under and enforced clear-up of the land or surrounding environment 7. The company makes an economic loss of at least $5 Million (USD)
This database however is not the only method of storing a record of serious accidents which occur in the energy industry. There are also; the casualties and demolition database, minerals management 3 store locator service accident database, acute hazardous events database, SONATA, the VARO database, OSH-ROM, HSELINE, NIOSHTIC, CISDOC and the ETDE energy database 3 store locator are just a few.
Following the definition of a severe accident I would like to suggest that the Aberfan Colliery Disaster is a suitable candidate for being on of the top 10 disasters in the energy industry as I feel that it fits into more then one of the criteria illustrated above. I will discuss the Aberfan Disaster in my next post.
I wish to continue Leigh’s post regarding severity of an accident and how it is quantified according to current databases. After reading 3 store locator this, it made me re-think the situation of the Valero Refinery fire (for which I made a post on earlier today in the original forum section). In this incident only 3 people were injured. However, after analyzing the incident it was discovered that had the circumstances been slightly different a much higher number of casualties and perhaps fatalities would have occurred. For such an incident, according 3 store locator to the criteria outlined 3 store locator by Leigh, this would have not been considered a severe accident. Obviously, there were fundamental failures in the facility that led to the accident, which as discussed may have caused a lot more damage than they did in reality. Does this mean we treat this incident any differently from one in which there were many losses of life? Surely the lessons to be learnt apply all the same, whether it is “severe” or not? This then also brings into question 3 store locator why we have to quantify “severity”. Will it lead to a different response from investigations, consequent legislation etc.? These are just thoughts that maybe worth discussing.
This is WRONG. 3 store locator The same focus/ resources should be applied based upon the POTENTIAL SEVERITY since this is the reality that it cou
