June 10, 1999 Olympic Pipe Line accident

Pages : 152
Book Description
"Until three young men were killed in a devastating liquid pipeline explosion in Bellingham last year, most of us paid little or no attention to pipeline safety. The tragic events of June 10th changed that. While pipelines continue to be the safest means of transporting liquid fuels and gas, and though accidents may be infrequent and the more than two million miles of pipelines in the United States often invisible, Bellingham has shown us that pipelines pose potential dangers that we ignore at our peril"--Page 1

More Incidents That Define Process Safety
Author: CCPS (Center for Chemical Process Safety)
Publisher: John Wiley & Sons
ISBN: 1119561469
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 270
Book Description
More Incidents that Define Process Safety book describes over 50 incidents which have had a significant impact on the chemical industry as well as the basic elements of process safety. Each incident is presented in sufficient detail to gain an understanding of root causes for the event with a focus on lessons learned and the impact the incident had on process safety. Incidents are grouped by incident type including Reactive chemical; Fires; Explosions; Environmental/toxic releases; and Transportation incidents. The book also covers incidents from other industries that illustrate the safety management elements. The book builds on the first volume and adds incidents from China, India, Italy and Japan. Further at the time the first volume was being written, CCPS was developing a new generation of process safety management elements that were presented as risk based process safety; these elements are addressed in the incidents covered.

Software and System Safety
Author: Terry L. Hardy
Publisher: AuthorHouse
ISBN: 1468574701
Category : Computer software
Languages : en
Pages : 352
Book Description
System safety is a widely accepted management and engineering approach to analyze and address risks in complex systems in order to prevent accidents. Because software and computing systems are integral to most systems, software safety has become a critical component of an overall system safety effort. Software and System Safety discusses critical elements of the discipline of system safety and shows how software and computing systems fit in the system safety process. Software-specific aspects of the system safety process are addressed to show concerns common to complex systems. The many accidents and incidents presented in this book illustrate important lessons learned and show how software-related hazards can be misidentified, software risks can be improperly assessed, hazard controls may be misapplied, and software and system testing may not effectively verify that the risk had been reduced. The lessons learned come from a variety of industries and organizations, and include the author’s personal experience. The real-world lessons provided in this book can be used to improve existing software safety and system safety efforts, and can help when planning new system safety programs.
