Please note: the deadline for comments on this DPC has now passed
At BSI British Standards we want to hear your views on this Draft for Public Comment (DPC) before it is launched as a published document (PD).
PD 8010-3 DPC will give recommendations for the risk assessment of major accident hazard pipelines (MAHPs), guidance on the modelling of failure consequences and determination of failure frequencies for the prediction of individual and societal risks. The principles of PD 8010-3 are based on best practice for the quantified risk analysis of new pipelines and existing pipelines. It is not intended to replace or duplicate existing risk analysis methodology, but is intended to support the application of the methodology and provide recommendations for its use. PD 8010-3 is applicable to buried pipelines on land that can be used to carry category D and category E substances that are hazardous by nature of being flammable or liable to cause harm to persons.
