Abstract
This chapter demonstrates a grid-based risk mapping method of explosion risk screening for large oil and gas facilities in the immediate neighbourhood of living areas. A target area is divided into a number of grids, and a total risk mapping can be depicted based on risk evaluations of all grids. A Bayesian network (BN) model is implemented to consider multi-consequences and the complex interrelationships between consequences and basic factors. Exemplification is demonstrated with a refinery factory.
