WhyisOPPimportant?• OverpressureprotecDonisconsideredthelastlineofdefenseagainstpossiblecatastrophicfailureofpressureequipment.ThefuncDonofoverpressureprotecDonisto:– Protectpeople,– PreventunsafeoperaDonofpressureequipment,– Protectequipmentfromfailureduetooverpressure,
– PreventlossofproducDon.

OPPChallenges
• SinceaPSVistheprimarymethodofprovidingOPPforpressureequipment,almostallpressureprotecDonguidelineshavefocusedonprovidingdetailsonhowtoimplementPSVsanddonothelpmuchwhenaPSVcannotbeused.
– Whichcodeisthegoverningcode?– WhyOverpressureRiskAssessment(ORA)isrequired?– WhatisroleofinstrumentaDoninoverpressureprotecDon?
– WhenshouldweuseHIPSinsteadofPSV?
