ARC personnel have many years experience in the production and management of safety cases in the nuclear, defence, rail and oil & gas industries and have developed a wide range of approaches to help Clients control the cost of safety case production and maintenance.
ARC also has extensive experience in conducting the many specialist studies required to support the production, development and maintenance of safety cases including:
· Hazard Identification (e.g. HAZID, HAZOP, FME(C)A SWIFT)
· Quantified Risk Assessment (QRA)
· Probabilistic and Deterministic Safety Assessment
· Fault Tree Analysis (FTA) and Event Tree Analysis (ETA)
· Radiological Consequence Assessments
· Blast and Explosion Modelling
· Dispersion Studies
· ALARP Justifications
· Human Factors
ARC has a demonstrated capability in the production of deterministic and probabilistic safety cases for all stages in the life of a facility; from conception, detailed design, operation and maintenance to decommissioning. The development of a safety case often takes place in parallel to the detailed design development or operation of an existing facility. ARC personnel are therefore experienced in working as part of multi-disciplinary teams to enable the safety case to become a valuable input to the design process or operational, maintenance and decommissioning strategies.
