Life Safty Reiability Bencharks For Volitile Liquid (HVL) Piplines

Paper No. IPC2024-133369

This paper introduces a framework for calculating reliability benchmarks for onshore HVL pipelines, developed by Flint Hills Resources and Integral Engineering. The benchmarks assess life safety and environmental performance using PHMSA data, event trees, and population density analysis. The study provides a method to evaluate HVL pipeline reliability, focusing on individual and societal risks.
