Management and Engineering of Fire Safety and Loss Prevention

Onshore and Offshore (Papers presented at the Third International Conference on Management and Engineering of Fire Safety and Loss Prevention, Aberdeen, UK, 18-20 February 1991

The papers presented deal with the general methods and techniques, from a range of disciplines, as they can be applied to specific engineering and fire safety situations. The circumstances described include a variety of large scale plant applications in the petrochemical industry. As such this book is a valuable reference for fire engineers, petroleum engineers and legislators working in today's multi-disciplinary design engineering team. These proceedings address five major areas of importance on and offshore: risk assessment, operations and operational safety, research, risk reduction and design safety, detection and control, and protective systems.
