Abstract
The RIMAP project is aimed at the establishment of an European RBMI framework including the assessment of the Consequence of Failure (CoF). Although the RIMAP framework allows the use of various methods provided they meet certain requirements, specific methods to assess the CoF have been developed. Both for a screening analysis and a detailed analysis a RIMAP-compliant method is described. The field of application covers the full range of equipment types, including static equipment, rotating equipment and safety instrumented functions. In a worked example the use of the detailed RIMAP method is demonstrated for the case of steam containments as being applied in the power industry. © 2004 Published by Elsevier Ltd.
