Further Phase-2 of the project will be executed if there is an additional gas demand from M/S KPCL Yelhanka power plant.
Risk Assessment study for NATURAL GAS PIPELINE TO POWERPLANT included the following steps.
- Identification of Hazards (Fire / Explosion uncontrolled release of Hazardous material / Flash Fire / Jet Fire / Over Pressure Explosion etc.)
- Identification of Maximum Credible Accident (MCA) scenario.
- Frequency Analysis using internationally accepted database and Evaluation of the -likelihood of occurrence of possible events.
- Consequence modelling and analysis for the identified hazard covering impact on people and potential escalation
- Estimation of Individual Risk(IR) and Societal Risk (SR)
- Recommendations
