The Challenge
Industrial facilities in seismically active regions face Natural Hazard-Triggered Technological Accidents — where earthquake or flood directly initiates chemical release, fire or explosion. Standard risk frameworks do not model these interactions.
Manufacturing operations depend on tightly coupled processes where a single failure can cascade across production lines, utilities and safety systems simultaneously — with consequences extending beyond the facility boundary.
SEVESO III and national regulations require documented, quantitative risk assessments for major hazard installations. Qualitative methods are insufficient for permitting, licensing and operational approval.
The Omniversel Approach
Natural hazard-triggered technological accident scenarios modeled explicitly — covering earthquake-induced storage tank failure, flood-driven chemical release and seismic structural damage to process units.
Systematic identification of failure modes across production processes — integrated with quantitative consequence modeling to prioritize risk reduction investment.
Each production unit, storage area and utility system receives an individual resilience score — enabling targeted capital allocation and regulatory justification.
Consequence-based emergency plans developed from risk assessment outputs — defining exclusion zones, evacuation routes and community notification procedures.
Earthquake, flood, storm and fire scenarios modeled simultaneously — capturing cascade interactions invisible in single-hazard frameworks.
Operational resilience assessments integrated with occupational health and safety management system requirements.
Use Cases
Full quantitative risk assessment for chemical manufacturing facilities — individual and societal risk calculations, consequence modeling and regulatory submission packages.
Business continuity plans covering production line failure, supply chain disruption, utility outage and personnel safety scenarios — maintaining output under adverse conditions.
Multi-facility risk assessment across industrial zones — identifying shared infrastructure dependencies and cascade failure pathways between co-located operations.
Our process safety team works with industrial operators to develop defensible, submission-ready quantitative risk assessments.
