A historical analysis was conducted, analyzing 546 accident events that occurred in the process industry due to ageing of the infrastructure. The analysis is conducted with the help of ARIA (Analysis, Research and Information on Accidents) databases. The keywords “ageing”, “corrosion”, “erosion”, “vibration”, “wear” and “fatigue” were searched. The study revealed that loss of containment occurred most frequently (73%), with corrosion as the primary cause in 47% of cases, followed by vibrations (18%). Utilizing these data points is pivotal in designing preventive strategies and in reducing future accident risks.

Abstract

A historical analysis was conducted, analyzing 546 accident events that occurred in the process industry due to ageing of the infrastructure. The analysis is conducted with the help of ARIA (Analysis, Research and Information on Accidents) databases. The keywords “ageing”, “corrosion”, “erosion”, “vibration”, “wear” and “fatigue” were searched. The study revealed that loss of containment occurred most frequently (73%), with corrosion as the primary cause in 47% of cases, followed by vibrations (18%). Utilizing these data points is pivotal in designing preventive strategies and in reducing future accident risks.
