Process Safety & Fire Water System Engineering

Engineering Safety into Every Design. Safety is an integral part of effective engineering. A&N provides Process Safety and specialized technical studies to support hazard identification, risk reduction and safe facility design and operation.

We believe process safety should be incorporated from the earliest stages of design, rather than treated as a separate activity at the end of engineering. Combining engineering analysis with risk-based thinking supports safer and more reliable facilities.

Our Core Scope

We provide specialized Process Safety and technical studies to support hazard identification and risk reduction.

  • Pressure Relief Studies
  • Flare System Studies
  • Blowdown & Depressurization Studies
  • HAZOP / HAZID / LOPA / SIL Support

Our approach integrates engineering analysis with risk-based thinking, ensuring your facility is designed to handle process upsets safely and efficiently.

Process Safety Studies

Rigorous analysis including pressure relief, flare systems, blowdown, and HAZOP/LOPA/SIL support for safe facility design.

Fire Water Engineering

Demand assessment, network hydraulic analysis, pump capacity, and ring-main sizing for robust fire water systems.

Detailed Engineering Deliverables

Our team delivers highly technical outputs that are directly integrated into your detailed design packages:

Process Safety

  • Pressure Relief Studies: Sizing and selection of relief devices to protect equipment from overpressure scenarios.
  • Flare System Studies: Hydraulic and radiation analysis for safe disposal of relieved gases.
  • Blowdown & Depressurization: Engineering the safe and rapid depressurization of process inventory during emergencies.
  • HAZOP / HAZID / LOPA / SIL: Facilitation and support for hazard identification and risk assessment studies.

Fire Water System Engineering

  • Fire Water Demand Assessment: Calculating the required fire water flow rates based on facility hazards.
  • Network Hydraulic Analysis: Detailed hydraulic modeling of the fire water network to ensure adequate pressure and flow.
  • Storage & Pump Capacity: Sizing fire water storage tanks and pumps to meet worst-case demands.
  • Hydrants & Monitors: Layout and specification of fire hydrants, monitors, and deluge/sprinkler systems.
  • Ring-Main Sizing: Pressure-drop evaluation and sizing of the fire water ring-main network.

Through this rigorous engineering approach, we help you integrate safety seamlessly into your plant design, ensuring your operations remain technically sound, compliant, and highly reliable.
