Assessing leakage and fire hazards in oil tank farm

This paper aims to illustrate the effective methods of quantitative evaluation of the leakage and fire hazards in an oil tank farm, in hoping to produce better effective quantitative evaluations where atmospheric diffusion model and pool-fire model are used. As a matter of fact, crude oil and refined (or product) oil are plenty in the oil tank farms. At any unexpected accidents, it is likely to cause disastrous damage once the leakage took place in a large scale. Seeing the severe nature of the hazards, the state law in China mandates safety evaluations of the oil tank farms. In the process of safety evaluation, all kinds of likely hazards in the oil tank farm district should be identified and analyzed. Most accidents arising in the district of oil tank farm are relevant with leakage or fire hazards, which may bring about serious threatening risks to the operating personnel and equipment. It is generally agreed that various weather factors account for the atmospheric diffusion model, resulting in the basic leakage situations of the oil tank. Besides, the pool fire model can quantitatively solve a set of governing equations of the pool fire due to the oil delivery pipe or the loading-platform in the farm. Since the calculative processes are somewhat complex, many factors in the two models account for the likely risks deduced by same parameters, such as diffusion coefficients of three directions in the model of atmospheric diffusion. Then, the evaluation may help to forecast the poison substance concentration under the condition of basic leakage situation and the thermal radiation flux of pool fire in the different districts of the oil tank farm. Referring to the relative safety standards, safety regions and danger regions can be marked out. The above data can be used to report the safety evaluation and give useful instructions to minimize the accident probability and reduce the loss and damage caused by the accidents.
