6.7.3 PSM Process Safety Management 工 艺 安 全 管 理<br />

An effective PSM system can significantly reduce risk levels in a process plant<br />

(refer to OSHA 29 CFR 1910.119 and API 750). RBI may include<br />

methodologies to assess the effectiveness of the management systems in<br />

maintaining mechanical integrity. The results of such a management systems<br />

evaluation are factored into the risk determinations. Several of the features of<br />

an effective PSM program provide input for an RBI study. Extensive data on<br />

the equipment and the process are required in the RBI analysis, and output<br />

from PHA and incident investigation reports increases the validity of the study.<br />

In turn, the RBI program can improve the mechanical integrity aspect of the<br />

PSM program.<br />
