Safety & Risk

Technical Safety & Risk Management for Oil & Gas Assets

Ankaa Consulting provides end-to-end Safety & Risk Management services for the oil & gas industry, supporting operators, EPCs, and asset owners across the full asset lifecycle. Our approach combines deep technical safety expertise with structured risk methodologies and digital enablement, ensuring risks are identified early, decisions are defensible, and safety controls are sustained over time.

We help organisations reduce major accident risk, strengthen regulatory confidence, and convert safety studies into practical, trackable outcomes.

What We Help You Achieve

  • Early identification and control of major accident hazards

  • Clear and defensible risk acceptance decisions

  • Reduced rework and late design changes

  • Improved safety and operability of facilities

  • Strong audit and assurance readiness

  • Practical implementation of risk study outcomes

Our Safety & Risk Services

Ankaa Consulting delivers a comprehensive portfolio of Safety & Risk services tailored to oil & gas projects and operations.

Facilitation Workshops

Structured and independent facilitation of formal risk studies, including:

  • HAZID workshops for early hazard identification and risk ranking

  • HAZOP workshops for systematic process deviation analysis

  • SIL determination workshops to define risk reduction targets

  • Risk reviews for modifications, brownfield tie-ins, and operational changes

Our workshops are outcome-driven, ensuring clear actions, ownership, and traceable decisions.

Specialist Technical Safety Studies

In-depth studies to support high-risk decisions, design optimisation, and safety justification, including:

  • Quantitative risk and scenario assessments

  • Fire, explosion, and escalation studies

  • Temporary refuge impairment and survivability assessments

  • Escape, evacuation, and rescue assessments

  • Smoke and gas ingress assessments

  • Non-hydrocarbon and specialist hazard studies

These studies provide robust input for design, operations, and safety case development.

Safety Engineering

Engineering-led safety support to reduce risk by design and improve facility robustness:

  • Layout and equipment arrangement reviews

  • Fire and gas detection optimisation

  • Isolation, depressurisation, and escalation prevention strategies

  • Engineering support during FEED, detailed design, and modifications

Our safety engineering services help embed safety intent directly into facility design.

CFD Modelling & Analysis

Advanced modelling to visualise and understand complex hazard behaviour, supporting informed decision-making for:

  • Gas dispersion and accumulation scenarios

  • Fire and thermal radiation analysis

  • Smoke movement and ventilation effectiveness

  • Layout optimisation and emergency response planning

CFD results are translated into clear design and operational recommendations.

Safety Management

Support to embed risk controls into day-to-day operations and governance:

  • Practical safety management frameworks

  • Risk ownership and review structures

  • Action tracking and closure governance

  • Management reporting and assurance readiness

We ensure safety studies translate into sustained operational control.

Our digital safety capabilities support:

  • Structured HAZOP, HAZID, and SIL records

  • Lifecycle tracking of safety decisions and actions

  • Barrier and safeguard monitoring

  • Management dashboards and reporting

  • Long-term reuse of risk knowledge across assets

Digital enablement improves consistency, transparency, and sustainability of Safety & Risk management.

Coverage Across the Asset Lifecycle

Our Safety & Risk services support oil & gas assets through:

  • Concept and feasibility

  • FEED and detailed engineering

  • Construction and commissioning

  • Operations and modifications

  • Life extension and decommissioning

This ensures continuity of risk knowledge and consistent decision-making at every stage.

Industry Experience

We support Safety & Risk management across:

  • Offshore and onshore oil & gas facilities

  • Gas processing and compression facilities

  • Petrochemical and chemical plants

  • Energy and industrial infrastructure

Our team understands both engineering design intent and operational realities.
