Natural events, such as earthquakes and floods, can trigger accidents in oil and gas pipeline with potentially severe consequences to the population and to the environment. These conjoint technological and natural disasters are termed natech accidents. The present literature review focuses on the risk analysis state-of-the-art of seismic and flood events that can impact oil and gas transmission pipelines. The research has focused on methodologies that take into account the characteristics of natech events: for instance, the characterization of the triggering natural hazard and the final accident scenarios, as well as fragility curves for the specific assessment of the potential consequences of natech accidents. The result of this research shows that the literature on seismic risk analysis offers the largest number of examples and methodologies, although most studies focused on structural damage aspects without considering the consequences of a potential loss of containment from the pipelines. Very little work was found on flood risk assessment of natech events in pipelines.

A study on the status of Natech risk reduction in EU Member States was performed by means of a questionnaire survey. A clear tendency towards recognising natural hazards as an important external risk source for chemical facilities could be established. In addition, more than half of the responding countries declared to have suffered one or more Natech accidents with the release of toxic substances, fires and/or explosions and sometimes fatalities and injuries. The natural events that triggered these Natech accidents were not necessarily the ones that were believed to be of major concern so there is a discrepancy between actual causes and risk perception. The results of this Natech questionnaire survey show that the responding countries have largely recognized natural hazards and disasters as a relevant source of risk to a chemical facility with the potential to trigger a major accident. A framework for Natech risk reduction exists but a strategic Natech risk-reduction initiative appears to be lacking. Moreover, the survey highlighted a number of shortcomings and gaps that need to be addressed to achieve effective risk reduction.

Natech Risk Assessment and Management: Reducing the Risk of Natural-Hazard Impact on Hazardous Installations covers the entire spectrum of issues pertinent to Natech risk assessment and management. After a thorough introduction of the topic that includes definitions of terms, authors Krausmann, Cruz, and Salzano discuss various examples of international frameworks and provide a detailed view of the implementation of Natech Risk Management in the EU and OECD. There is a dedicated chapter on natural-hazard prediction and measurement from an engineering perspective, as well as a consideration of the impact of climate change on Natech risk. The authors also discuss selected Natech accidents, including recent examples, and provide specific ‘lessons learned’ from each, as well as an analysis of all essential elements of Natech risk assessment, such as plant layout, substance hazards, and equipment vulnerability. The final section of the book is dedicated to the reduction of Natech risk, including structural and organizational prevention and mitigation measures, as well as early warning issues and emergency foreword planning. Teaches chemical engineers and safety managers how to safeguard chemical processing plants and pipelines against natural disasters Includes international regulations and explains how to conduct a natural hazards risk assessment, both of which are supported by examples and case studies Discusses a broad range of hazards and the multidisciplinary aspects of risk assessment in a detailed and accessible style

The impact of natural hazards on industrial plants, pipelines, offshore platforms and other infrastructure that handles, stores or transports hazardous substances can cause fires, explosions, and toxic or radioactive releases. These so called Natech accidents are a recurring but often overlooked feature in many natural disasters and have often had significant human, environmental and economic impacts. Successfully controlling Natech risk is usually a major challenge, which requires targeted prevention, preparedness and response. Systematic analysis of the Natech risk is a prerequisite for this purpose. Developed by the European Commission Joint Research Centre (JRC) in response to requests by competent authorities, the Rapid Natech Risk Analysis and Mapping System (RAPID-N) is an online software for the quick analysis and mapping of Natech accident risk both at local and regional levels. The system unites natural-hazard impact and damage assessment, Natech scenario development, and chemical accident consequence analysis capabilities under a single roof featuring an open, extensible, and collaborative architecture facilitating data entry, analysis and visualisation. Since it became operational in 2012, the user base of RAPID-N has been growing, including more and more users from public authorities, research organisations, academia, and the private sector. According to feedback from the users, the system has been further developed in time to provide additional capabilities, such as a modern and mobile-friendly user interface, a more advanced analysis framework, and extended support for various natural hazards and industrial activities. Besides a comprehensive user manual, case-studies and hands-on training are also provided by the JRC to support the users. As part of these support activities, this beginner's guide aims to deliver a comprehensive, yet easy-to-follow introduction to Natech risk analysis and mapping by using RAPID-N. The user interface, data estimation framework, and risk analysis methodology are explained in detail. Step-by-step tutorials are provided for various Natech risk analysis case-studies ranging from a simple single industrial plant scenario to a scenario involving multiple industrial plants and multiple plant equipment. The guide also includes updated information to the User Manual by describing features and capabilities added, updated, or deprecated since the publication of the manual.

The wildfire risk in Europe is increasing, as is the geographic expansion of wildfires to north and southeast Europe. When wildfires intersect with hazardous industry in Wildland Industrial Interfaces, they can trigger toxic spills, fires or explosions. Climate change and the associated transformation of the surroundings of industrial installations raise concerns about future industrial plant safety in wildfire zones, as external hazards can also be carried into industrial sites. However, there is no integrated European fire management system that would meet the requirements for the prevention of wildfiretriggered industrial accidents. This study focuses on Wildland Industrial Interfaces and analyses the vulnerability of European industrial sites to wildfires based on current scientific knowledge and international initiatives. It also makes recommendations for policy makers, industry, emergency responders and academia on how to close existing risk management gaps. Past data shows that there have already been incidents due to wildfires, confirming that this hazard has the potential to increasingly cause damage to technological systems in the future. If no appropriate protection measures are implemented, wildfires can harm industrial facilities via thermal radiation (heat), ember flight or direct flame impingement to industrial infrastructure or process equipment. Since the necessary level of safety can only be reached by an integrated risk management approach involving all stakeholders, concerted action of policy makers, industry, emergency responders and science is required.
