Reliability analysis system for risk management of LNG receiving terminals and piping network

By: Contributor(s): Description: 6 pDDC classification:
  • CD I249 1 0013788
Summary: Transcripción del abstract original del autor: The "Reliability Analysis System for Complex Technical Systems" and its application to Liquefied Natural Gas(LNG) receiving terminals as a support tool of risk management is described here. We have developed a tool capable of quantitative evaluation of the reliability of LNG facilities based on the Fault Tree Analysis (FTA) method and have implemented it in Gensym’s G2. A key feature of the system is it constructs a fault tree automatically from diagrams such as process flow diagrams, and sequence block diagrams. The system has actually been used in the evaluation of Tokyo Gas' existing LNG receiving terminals, and has also contributed to cost reduction in the construction of a new terminal.
