Antão, P. e Guedes Soares, C. (2012), “Risk Assessment to the approach and berth of LNGC vessels at the FLNG systems”, Maritime Engineering and Technology, Guedes Soares et al. (Eds),Taylor & Francis Group, London, pp. 425-432

In the present study a risk assessment is performed for the approach manoeuvres of an LNG (Liquefied Natural Gas) vessel to berth and moor at a FLNG (Floating Liquefied Natural Gas) platform. In order to fulfil that objective, an identification of the procedures of berthing and mooring in good and bad weather is performed. Based on this analysis several hazards are identified. These hazards are mainly a result of human errors or equipment failures and are then quantified based on expert opinion in terms of frequency of occurrence and potential consequences. These procedures correspond to the first two steps of the IMO Formal Safety Assessment (FSA). Based on the obtained results it is possible to identify situations of higher risk based on a predefined risk acceptance criterion.
