METHODOLOGY FOR HAZARD IDENTIFICATION (HAZID)
HAZID (Hazard Identification) is a technique for early identification of potential hazards and threats from a project, plant, or a plant modification. It is therefore likely to be the first formal HSE-related study for any new project. The major benefit of HAZID is that early identification and assessment of the critical HSE hazards provides essential input to project development decisions. This will lead to safer and more cost-effective design options being adopted with a minimum cost of change penalty.
