Abstract
It may be illustrative to consider the vast difference between two incidents in the North Sea that started in almost identical ways, within approximately 24 hours, and ended very differently. The two events are:
-
Explosion and fire on Brent A on 5.7.1988
-
Explosion and escalating fire on Piper A on 6.7.1988
