Abstract:

The main plan is to analyze the risk with help of Phast Risk Micro Version 6.7 associated in different sections which are being carried out in POL depot, during handling, storage and distribution/or transportation, and to minimise the hazard in order to make the working environment. As the Depot handles various petroleum products which have got many possible hazards, hence it is necessary to evaluate the Risk from the facilities at the Depot. It is observed that  The Iso-Risk Contour (Figure. No. 05) that the acceptable limit of individual risk of 1.0x10-6 per year should be remains mainly confined within factory premises.  Societal Risk (F/N Curve) shown in Figure no.04, developed for the plant should be remains mainly within the acceptable limit. Hence, we can know the installation of POL Depot will safe/unsafe from environmental risk point of view.
