Management and Engineering of Fire Safety and Loss Prevention

The papers presented deal with the general methods and techniques from a range of disciplines as they can be applied to specific engineering and fire safety situations. The circumstances described include a variety of large scale plant applications in the petrochemical industry. As such this book is a valuable reference for fire engineers petroleum engineers and legislators working in today's multi-disciplinary design engineering team. These proceedings address five major areas of importance on and offshore: risk assessment operations and operational safety research risk reduction and design safety detection and control and protective systems.
