The export pipeline function is transport the total oil production from the process facilities to shore and this is an economical alternative in comparison with others systems. However, it is more conducive to fail and even small incidents could produce catastrophic consequences to the environment, human and financial losses. The aim of this paper is study the relevance of risk analysis as important tool level estimation of operational safety. To attend this proposes a review of incidents databases and pipeline failures modes is portrayed to detail the risk level inside the pipeline transport systems. Moreover, as a semi-quantitative risk evaluation tool this paper applies a model to estimate the failure frequencies for offshore oil pipelines in two different scenarios in North Sea not only based in failures mechanisms as well as the factors failures that influence the likelihood reported in Det Norske Veritas Recommended Practice. The identification of risk allows establishing appropriate and effective corrective actions to prevent recurrence.
