INTRODUCTION
Hazard and operability analysis is a
systematic and structured examination of an
operation/process to evaluate and identify
the problems that may lead to any
undesirable consequence to the system or
equipment or personnel.
4 phases for HAZOP execution:-
1.Defination phase
2.Preparation phase
3.Examination phase
4.Documentation phase
DEFINITION PHASE:-
HAZOP team is comprised of the following personnel :
Chairman
Scribe
Design consultant/ Project Manager
Production Manager
Chemical Engineer/Chemist
Maintenance Manager
Electrical Engineer
Instrument Engineer
Quality Control Engineer
PREPARATION PHASE:-
Preparation Phase: This phase includes identifying & locating of the
information & supporting data, project management preparations,
identification of the users and audience of the output study and
consensus of the guide words & format to be used for the study. The
following information shall be available during the HAZOP study :
Process flow diagrams
Piping and instrumentation diagrams (P&IDs)
Layout diagrams
Material safety data sheets
Provisional operating instructions
Heat and material balances
Equipment data sheets
Start-up and emergency shut down procedures
 EXAMINATION PHASE:-
Examination phase can be described graphically as follows:

UP PHASE:-
Documentation and Follow up Phase:
 Templates are used for recording the
observations of the HAZOP analysis.
The template can be modified by the team
members when the team members when
required to do so due to certain regulatory
requirements ,policies or other factor.
APPLICATION:-
Applications of HAZOP analysis can be
found mostly in Chemical, Pharmaceutical,
Oil & Gas, Nuclear and other process
industries for initiating new
projects/process, modification and periodic
review of the operations.
