    Use of Failure Rate Databases and Process Safety Performance Measurements to Improve Process Safety
    (Mary Kay O'Connor Process Safety Center, 2002) Keren, N.; West, H. H.; Rogers, W. J.; Gupta, P. J.; Mannan, M. S.
    In this paper, a methodology is proposed to combine process safety performance measurements techniques, decision-making strategies, applications of private and generic databases, reliability calculations, and benchmarking to reduce risk and improve process safety. Increasing performance reliability can require extensive resources. The suggested methodology involves a gradual improvement process that promotes implementation and does not require continuous or complete verification.
