Safety I: controlling loss to increase gain - the influence of human factors in safeguarding; hydraulic operation of sub-surface safety valves. Safety II: safety assessment and safety case preparation in a fast-truck project; assessing safety during the routine pigging of hydrocarbon pipelines; offshore and onshore treatment of waste water streams using Biological Aerated Fixed Film (BAFF) technology. Safety and training: working towards common standards of training and competency throughout the industry; safety related virtual reality applications. Human factors: decision making models used in emergencies; linking risk assessment to human factors - risk-based human factors management; management of change - the key to continued loss prevention success. Collisions: vessel traffic surveys and their application in collision risk modelling; Ship Offshore platform Collision Risk Assessment (SOCRA); evaluation of ship/platform collision risk in the North Sea. Fire and explosions I - fire and explosion hazard management: a methodology for linking as cloud sizes to hazard assessment in offshore modules; on the validation of a numerical tool used for explosion and dispersion predictions in the offshore industry. Fire and explosions II: watermist technology and its application to offshore fire protection.
