Crises in Oil, Gas and Petrochemical Industries: Loss Prevention and Disaster Management

Crises in Oil, Gas and Petrochemical Industries: Loss Prevention and Disaster Management, Volume Two provides an overview of both natural and manmade disasters occurring in oil, gas and petrochemical industries and prepares special solutions based on their types. The book focuses on loss prevention and disaster management in petrochemical industries from different points-of-view. Sections review methods for making the apparatus safer and continue with discussions on the process of facing and managing disasters during the occurrence. Final sections cover loss and economic analysis after disasters and methods of reversibility are presented with case studies from around the world. Introduces pre-disaster strategies in oil, gas and petrochemical industries Describes during-disaster strategies in oil, gas and petrochemical industries Discusses post-disaster management methods in oil, gas and petrochemical industries INDICE: Section I Basics in oil, gas and petrochemical industries 1.
