Abstract

This article gives an overview of the advances made in the field of risk assessment and risk management of geologic CO2 storage (GCS), since the publication of the IPCC Special Report on Carbon Capture and Storage in 2005. Development and operation of a wide range of demonstration projects coupled with development of new regulations for safe injection and storage of CO2 have led to development and deployment of a range of risk assessment approaches. New methods and tools have been developed for quantitative and qualitative risk assessment. These methods have been integrated effectively with monitoring and mitigation techniques and deployed in the field for small-scale field tests as well as large-scale commercial projects. An important development has been improved definition of risks, which can be broadly classed as site performance risks, long-term containment risks, public perception risks and market risks. Considerable experience has now been gained on understanding and managing site performance risks. Targeted research on containment risks and induced seismicity risks has led to improved understanding of parameters and processes influencing these risks as well as identifying key uncertainties that need to be targeted. Finally, significant progress has been made to effectively integrate communication strategies with risk management approachesmore »

What is the foundation of the risk management process?

Good risk management utilizes a five-step process:.
Step 1 – Situational Awareness: Obtain information. ... .
Step 2 – Hazard Assessment: ... .
Step 3 – Hazard Control: ... .
Step 4 – Decision Point (decision to accept or not accept the risks associated with an action): ... .
Step 5 – Evaluation:.

Dynamic Risk Assessment..

What is risk assessment and management?

Risk assessment is a function within occupational safety and health (OSH) risk management that focuses on identifying potential hazards. The goal is to identify hazards, then analyze and evaluate the risks they create.

What is review in risk management process?

The overall purpose of the risk review and regular monitoring is to ensurerelevance of risk management treatment as well as progress made in the treatment plan and if there is any need to modify the plan if there is a major change in Both internal and external contexts around our intervention..
