Overview
Layer of Protection Analysis (LOPA) Study is a semi-quantitative risk assessment method used to evaluate and manage process safety risks in high-hazard industries such as oil & gas, petrochemical, and energy.
Layer of Protection Analysis (LOPA) Study is a semi-quantitative risk assessment method used to evaluate and manage process safety risks in high-hazard industries such as oil & gas, petrochemical, and energy. Our LOPA Study systematically verifies whether existing Independent Protection Layers (IPLs) are sufficient to reduce identified hazards to tolerable risk levels, and determines the required Safety Integrity Level (SIL) for critical safety instrumented functions. Delivered by experienced process safety engineers and aligned with international standards (IEC 61511 / IEC 61508), our LOPA services provide clear, defensible risk decisions, support regulatory compliance, and enable cost-effective safety solutions without over-engineering-ensuring safer, more reliable, and sustainable operations.
