The Challenge
Energy infrastructure faces fire, explosion, toxic release and NATECH scenarios where the consequences of failure extend far beyond the facility boundary — into surrounding communities and ecosystems.
EPDK and international regulators require quantitative risk assessment for major hazard installations. Qualitative assessments are no longer acceptable for licensing, permitting and operational approval.
Energy systems are deeply interconnected. A failure at a single node — pipeline, substation, storage terminal — can cascade across entire regional supply networks with national economic impact.
The Omniversel Approach
Quantitative analysis of fire, explosion and toxic dispersion scenarios — producing risk contours, impact zones and societal risk estimates for regulatory submission.
Systematic risk scoring across pipeline segments — integrating corrosion, pressure, third-party damage and geological hazard data into a single integrity index.
Assessment outputs structured to meet EPDK major hazard installation requirements — supporting licensing, permitting and operational review submissions.
Natural hazard-triggered technological accident scenarios modeled explicitly — covering earthquake-induced pipeline rupture, flood-driven storage tank failure and seismic structural damage.
Pipeline, LNG and energy infrastructure risk module — in development for industrial energy operators.
Quantitative risk assessment module with LSIR grid, f-N curves and societal risk mapping.
Use Cases
Full quantitative risk assessment for oil, gas and chemical installations — individual and societal risk calculations aligned to Dutch criteria.
Segment-level risk scoring across distribution and transmission networks. Priority ranking for inspection, maintenance and capital investment.
Consequence-based emergency plans — defining exclusion zones, evacuation protocols and notification procedures for worst-case scenarios.
Our process safety and regulatory team works with energy operators to develop defensible, submission-ready risk assessments.
