Abstract
Incident prevention is an area of great effort in the process industry. Various methods have been developed for the identification and tracing of failure sources with the aim to increase reliability and safety of process installations. The method described in this paper is a rather general one and is based on the analysis of many thousands of incidents. More than with sane other analyzing techniques, attention is paid on incident causes during maintenance, repair and other than “normal operation” situations. Especially during those situations a great many incidents occur.
