4.4.2 Hazard and Risk Reduction Measure Identification A comprehensive hazard and risk reduction identification process and its results must be demonstrated in the safety case. The petroleum undertaking must demonstrate that they have carried out a comprehensive identification of hazards that could have an immediate or long term safety impact to people. This must be insufficient detail to fully understand the nature of each hazard and to identify the most appropriate risk reduction measures necessary for hazard management. The assessment must coverall human factors, infrastructure, plant and equipment that could cause or contribute to an accident, including subsea systems, pipework, process plant and plant areas and utilities. Major Accident Hazards should be specifically identified. If the decision is made to implement a risk reduction measure as opposed to not implementing it, the justification does not need to be included in the ALARP demonstration as the critical decisions are those where a risk reduction measure is not implemented.
