INTRODUCTION

Safety standards like IEC 61508, [1] and IEC 61511, [2], require quantification of failure probability for operation of safety systems. Such quantification may be part of design optimization or verification that the design is according to stated performance requirements. The use of relevant failure data is an essential part of any quantitative reliability analysis. It is also one of the most challenging parts and raises a number of questions concerning the availability and relevance of the data, the assumptions underlying the data and what uncertainties are related to the data. In this handbook recommended data for reliability quantification of Safety Instrumented Systems (SIS) are presented. Efforts have been made to document the presented data thoroughly, both in terms of applied data sources and underlying assumptions. Various data sources have been applied when preparing this handbook, the most important source being the OREDA database and handbooks (ref. section 2.5).

1.1

Objective and Scope

When performing reliability quantification, the analyst will need information on a number of parameters related to the equipment under consideration. This includes basic failure rates, distribution of critical failure modes, diagnostic coverage factors and common cause factors. In this handbook best estimates for these reliability parameters are presented for selected equipment. The data are given on a format suitable for performing analyses in line with the requirements in the IEC 61508/61511 standards and the PDS method, [10]. As compared to the former 2006 edition, [12], the following main changes are included: • • •

1.2

A general update / review of the failure rates, coverage values, β-values and other relevant parameters; Some new equipment groups have been added; Data for control logic units have been updated and refined.

Benefits of Reliability Analysis – the PDS Method

Instrumented safety systems such as emergency shutdown systems, fire and gas systems and process shutdown systems, are installed to prevent abnormal operating conditions from developing into an accident. High reliability of such systems is therefore paramount with respect to safe - as well as commercial - operation. Reliability analysis represents a systematic tool for evaluating the performance of safety instrumented systems (SIS) from a safety and production availability point of view. Some main applications of reliability analysis are: • • •

Reliability assessment and follow-up; verifying that the system fulfils its safety and reliability requirements; Design optimisation; balancing the design to get an optimal solution with respect to safety, production availability and lifecycle cost; Operation planning; establishing the optimal testing and maintenance strategy; 9



Modification support; verifying that planned modifications are in line with the safety and reliability requirements.

The PDS method has been developed in order to enable the reliability engineer and non-experts to perform such reliability considerations in various phases of a project. The main features of the PDS method are discussed in chapter 4.

1.3

The IEC 61508 and 61511 Standards

The IEC 61508 and IEC 61511 standards, [1] and [2], present requirements to safety instrumented systems (SIS) for all the relevant lifecycle phases, and have become leading standards for SIS specification, design, implementation and operation. IEC 61508 is a generic standard common to several industries, whereas IEC 61511 has been developed especially for the process industry. These standards present a unified approach to achieve a rational and consistent technical policy for all SIS systems. The Norwegian Oil Industry Association (OLF) has developed a guideline to support the use of IEC 61508/61511, [19]. The PDS method is in line with the main principles advocated in the IEC standards, and is a useful tool when implementing and verifying quantitative (SIL) requirements as described in the IEC standards.

1.4

Organisation of Data Handbook

In chapter 2 important reliability aspects are discussed and definitions of the applied notations are given. The recommended reliability data estimates are summarised in chapter 3 of this report. A split has been made between input devices, logic solvers and final elements. Chapter 4 gives a brief summary of the main characteristics of the PDS method. The failure classification for safety instrumented systems is presented together with the main reliability performance measures used in PDS. In chapter 5 the detailed data dossiers providing the basis for the recommended reliability data are given. As for previous editions of the handbook, some data are scarcely available in the data sources, and it is necessary to, partly or fully, rely on expert judgements.

RELIABILITY CONCEPTS

In this chapter some selected concepts related to reliability analysis and reliability data are discussed. For a more detailed discussion reference is made to the updated PDS method handbook, ref. [10].

2.1

The Concept of Failure

A failure is in IEC 61508-4 defined as the termination of the ability of a functional unit to perform a required function. The two main functions of a safety system are [10]; the ability to shut down or go to a predefined safe state when production is not safe and the ability to maintain production when it is safe. Hence, a failure may have two facets; (1) loss of the ability to shut down or go to a safe state when required or (2) loss of the ability to maintain production. From a safety point of view, the first category will be the more critical and such failures are defined as dangerous failures (D), i.e. they have the potential to result in loss of the ability to shut down or go to a safe state when required. Loss of the ability to maintain production is normally not so critical to safety and such failures have therefore in PDS traditionally been denoted spurious trip (ST) failures whereas IEC 61508 categorise such failures as ‘safe’ (S). In the forthcoming update of the IEC 61508 standard the definition of safe failures is more in line with the PDS interpretation. Therefore PDS have in this updated version also applied the notation ‘S’ (instead of ‘ST’ failures). It should be noted that a given failure may be classified as either dangerous or safe depending on the intended application. E.g. loss of hydraulic supply to a valve actuator operating on-demand will be dangerous in an energise-to-trip application and safe in a de-energise-to-trip application. Hence, when applying the failure data, the assumptions underlying the data as well as the context in which the data shall be used must be carefully considered.

2.2

Failure Rate and Failure Probability

The failure rate (numbers of failures per time unit) for a component is essential for the reliability calculations. In section 2.2.1, definitions and notation related to the failure rate are given, whereas in section 2.2.2 the decomposition of this failure rate into its various elements is further discussed. 2.2.1

λcrit

Failure Rate Notation

= Rate of critical failures; i.e., failures that may cause loss of one of the two main functions of the component/system (see above). Critical failures include dangerous (D) failures which may cause loss of the ability to shut down production when required and safe (S) failures which may cause loss of the ability to maintain production when safe (i.e. spurious trip failures). Hence:

λcrit = λD + λS (see below) λD

= Rate of dangerous (D) failures, including both undetected as well as detected failures. λD = λDU + λDD (see below) 13

λDU

= Rate of dangerous undetected failures, i.e. failures undetected both by automatic self-test or personnel

λDD

= Rate of dangerous detected failures, i.e. failures detected by automatic self-test or personnel

λS

= Rate of safe (spurious trip) failures, including both undetected as well as detected failures. λS = λSU + λSD (see below)

λSU

= Rate of safe (spurious trip) undetected failures, i.e. undetected both by automatic self-test and personnel

λSD

= Rate of safe (spurious trip) detected failures, i.e. detected by automatic self-test or personnel

λundet

= Rate of (critical) failures that are undetected both by automatic self-test and by personnel (i.e., detected in functional testing only). λundet = λDU + λSU

λdet

= Rate of (critical) failures that are detected by automatic self-test or personnel (independent of functional testing). λdet = λDD + λSD

c

= Coverage: percentage of critical failures detected either by the automatic self-test or (incidentally) by personnel observation

cD

= Coverage of dangerous failures. cD = (λDD / λD ) · 100% Note that λDU then can be calculated as: λDU = λD · (1- cD / 100%)

cS

= Coverage of safe (spurious trip) failures. cS = (λSD / λS) ·100% Note that λSU then can be calculated as: λSU = λS · (1- cS / 100%)

r

= Fraction of dangerous undetected (DU) failures originating from random hardware failures (1-r will then be the fraction originating from systematic failures)

SFF

= Safe failure fraction = (1 - λDU / λ

β

= The fraction of failures of a single component that causes both components of a redundant pair to fail “simultaneously”

CMooN

= Modification factor for voting configurations other than 1oo2 in the beta-factor model (e.g. 1oo3, 2oo3 and 2oo4 voting logics)

Reliability Measures and Notation

Table 2 lists some performance measures for safety and reliability, and some other main parameters in the PDS method. A more complete description is found in the updated PDS Method Handbook, 2010 Edition, [10]. Table 2 Performance measures and reliability parameters Term

Description

PFD

Probability of failure on demand. This is the measure for loss of safety caused by dangerous undetected failures, see section 4.3.

PTIF

Probability of a test independent failure. This is the measure for loss of safety caused by a failure not detectable by functional testing, but occurring upon a true demand (see section 4.3).

CSU

Critical safety unavailability, CSU = PFD + PTIF

15

Term

Description

MTTR

Mean time to restoration. Time from failure is detected/revealed until function is restored, ("restoration period"). Note that this restoration period may depend on a number of factors. It can be different for detected and undetected failures: The undetected failures are revealed and handled by functional testing and could have shorter MTTR than the detected failures. The MTTR could also depend on configuration, operational philosophy and failure multiplicity.

STR

Spurious trip rate. Rate of spurious trips of the safety system (or set of redundant components), taking into consideration the voting configuration.

τ

Interval of functional test (time between functional tests of a component)

2.4

Reliability Parameters

In this section some of the reliability parameters defined above is further discussed. 2.4.1

Rate of Dangerous Undetected Failures

As discussed in section 2.2.2, the critical failure rate, λ rit are split into dangerous and safe failures, (i.e. λcrit = λD + λS) which are further split into detected and undetected failures. When performing safety unavailability calculations, the rate of dangerous undetected failures, λDU, is of special importance, since this parameter - together with the test interval - to a large degree governs the prediction of how often a safety function is likely to fail on demand. Equipment specific failure data reports prepared by manufacturers (or others) often provide λDU estimates being an order of magnitude (or even more) lower than those reported in generic data handbooks. There may be several causes for such exaggerated claims of performance, including imprecise definition of equipment- and analysis boundaries, incorrect failure classification or too optimistic predictions of the diagnostic coverage factor (see e.g. [20]). When studying the background data for generic failure rates (λDU) presented in data sources such as OREDA and RNNP, it is found that these data will include both random hardware failures as well as systematic failures. Examples of the latter include incorrect parameter settings for a pressure transmitter, an erroneous output from the control logic due to a failure during software modification, or a PSV which fails due to excessive internal erosion or corrosion. These are all failures that are detectable during functional testing and therefore illustrate the fact that systematic failures may well be part of the λDU for generic data. Since failure rates provided by manufacturers frequently tend to exclude all types of failures related to installation, commissioning or operation of the equipment (i.e. systematic type of failures), a mismatch between manufacturer data and generic data appears. Our question then becomes - since systematic failures inevitably will occur - why not include these failures in predictive reliability analyses? In order to elucidate the fact that the failure rate will comprise random hardware failures as well as systematic failures, the parameter r has therefore been defined as the fraction of dangerous undetected failures originating from random hardware failures. Rough estimates of the r factor are given in the detailed data sheets in chapter 5. For a more thorough discussion and arguments concerning the r factor, reference is made to [10].

2.4.2

The Coverage Factor, c

Modules often have built-in automatic self-test, i.e. on-line diagnostic testing to detect failures prior to an actual demand 2. The fraction of failures being detected by the automatic self-test is called the fault coverage and quantifies the effect of the self-test. Note that the actual effect on system performance from a failure that is detected by the automatic self-test will depend on system configuration and operating philosophy. In particular it should be considered whether the detected failure is configured to only raise an alarm or alternatively bring the system to a safe state. It is often seen that failures classified as dangerous detected only raise an alarm and in such case it must be ensured that the failure initiates an immediate response in the form of a repair and/or introduction of risk reducing measures. In addition to the diagnostic self-test, an operator or maintenance crew may detect dangerous failures incidentally in between tests. For instance, the panel operator may detect a transmitter that is “stuck” or a sensor that has been left in by-pass. Similarly, when a process segment is isolated for maintenance, the operator may detect that one of the valves will not close. The PDS method also aims at incorporating this effect, and defines the total coverage factor; c reflecting detection both by automatic self-test and by operator. Further, the coverage factor for dangerous failures is denoted cD whereas the coverage factor for safe failures is denoted cS. Critical failures that are not detected by automatic self-testing or by observation are assumed either to be detectable by functional (proof) testing 3 or they are so called test independent failures (TIF) that are not detected during a functional test but appear upon a true demand (see section 2.3 and chapter 4 for further description). It should be noted that the term “detected safe failure” (of rate λS), is interpreted as a failure which is detected such that a spurious trip is actually avoided. Hence, a spurious closure of a valve which is detected by, e.g., flow metering downstream the valve, can not be categorised as a detected safe failure. On the other hand, drifting of a pressure transmitter which is detected by the operator, such that a shutdown is avoided, will typically be a detected safe failure. 2.4.3

Beta-factors and CMooN

When quantifying the reliability of systems employing redundancy, e.g., duplicated or triplicated systems, it is essential to distinguish between independent and dependent failures. Random hardware failures due to natural stressors are assumed to be independent failures. However, all systematic failures, e.g. failures due to excessive stresses, design related failures and maintenance errors are by nature dependent (common cause) failures. Dependent failures can lead to simultaneous failure of more than one (redundant) component in the safety system, and thus reduce the advantage of redundancy. Traditionally, the dependent or common cause failures have been accounted for by the β-factor approach. The problem with this approach has been that for any M-out-of-N (MooN) voting (M 1 kg/s)

Assessment The failure rate estimate is an update of the previous estimate in the 2006 handbook and is based on previous estimates as well as additional information on IR detectors from OREDA phase VI (only new data on IR point detectors). It should be noted that data on IR line detectors are scarce, and therefore experience from IR point detectors has been applied. As for IR point detectors the rate of DU failures has been estimated assuming coverage for dangerous failures of 75%, whereas for safe failures coverage of 50 % has been assumed. The coverage values are given assuming that the detectors have built-in self-test and monitoring of the optical path. It is then implicitly assumed that the connected system has the ability to discriminate detected failures without shutting down (e.g. a 3mA signal gives an alarm not a shutdown). The PTIF is based on expert judgements and is based on the assumption that the detectors are exposed. The estimated r value is based on observed failure causes for critical detector failures (40% “expected wear and tear” and 60% “maintenance errors”). A summary of some of the main arguments is provided in section 3.3. Failure Rate References Overall failure rate (per 106 hrs) λcrit = 5.3

Assessment The failure rate estimate is an update of the 2006 figure which was primarily based on OREDA phase III as well as some phase V data. The rate of DU failures is estimated still assuming coverage of 40 % (observed in OREDA incomplete and complete phase III were 29% and 50%, respectively). The rate of dangerous and safe failures has been slightly decreased based on observations from failure reviews and later OREDA phases. For safe failures 30 % coverage mainly based on OREDA phase III observations as well as expert judgement - has been assumed. It should be noted that for some type of smoke detectors with more extensive self test, the coverage may be significantly higher. This must be assessed for each specific detector type. The PTIF is based on expert judgements and is based on the assumption that the detectors are exposed. The estimated r value is based on observed failure causes for critical detector failures (40% “expected wear and tear” and 60% “maintenance errors”).

Failure Rate Assessment The failure rate estimate is an update of the previous estimate in the 2006 handbook [12] (primarily based on OREDA phase III data). The rate of dangerous failures has been slightly reduced as compared to the 2006 estimate due to input from operational reviews. Coverage for D failures has been assumed to be 70 % based on expert judgement. The rate of safe failures is estimated assuming coverage of 50 %. It should be noted that these coverage values assume that the detectors have built-in self-test and monitoring of the optics. The PTIF is based on expert judgements and has been updated based on the fact that the detectors are now assumed exposed. The estimated r value is based on observed failure causes for critical detector failures (50% “expected wear and tear” and 50% “maintenance errors”).

The rate of DU failures is primarily based on reported “Fail to function on demand” failures although these failures in OREDA phase V have been reported as degraded instead of critical failures. The coverage factors for dangerous and safe failures are assumed similar as for catalytic gas detectors. The same distribution between dangerous and safe failures as for catalytic gas detectors is also assumed. The PTIF is based on expert judgements and on the assumption that the detectors are exposed.

PDS Reliability Data Dossier

Assessment The failure rate estimate is an update of the previous estimate in the 2006 handbook [12]. Data from OREDA phase V-VII indicates a higher rate of dangerous failures as compared to the previous estimate. Also, the data (and other sources) indicates a somewhat lower proportion of safe failures as compared to the 2006 estimate. Data from RNNP for the period 2003-2008 for riser ESVs has also been reviewed. In total some 6239 valve tests have been performed during this period, resulting in 96 failures. Based on this a λDU = 1.8 · 10-6 (incl. pilot valve) can be estimated. It should be noted that this only include failures revealed through functional testing. As seen there is a relatively big difference between the failure rate indicated by the RNNP data and the rate obtained from the OREDA phase V-VII data. The data from RNNP include only riser ESV data which may be one explanation (tighter follow-up of riser valves). The main reason however is assumed to be the fact that OREDA data includes a large portion of dangerous failures revealed in-between tests by other detection methods, whereas RNNP only report test data. The coverage for dangerous failures have been slightly increased to 30% due to information from OREDA phase V-VII where it appears that a high fraction of dangerous failures (more than 50%) are detected by operator observation. It should be noted that this is not diagnostic coverage in its true meaning (e.g. ref. IEC definition) but will however imply that dangerous fault are detected in between testing. For valves that are never operated except for testing, the coverage should therefore be lower. The size of the PTIF will vary depending on the completeness of the functional testing. Here, a standard functional test where the valve is fully closed but not tested for internal leakage has been assumed.

The estimated r is based on reported failure causes in OREDA as well as expert judgements. A summary of some of the main arguments is provided in section 3.3. Failure Rate References Overall failure rate (per 106 hrs)

Assessment The failure rate estimate is an update of the previous 2006 estimate [12] (which was based primarily on OREDA phase III, with some OREDA phase IV data). Additional data from phase VII on X-mas tree valves indicate a somewhat lower dangerous failure rate than the OREDA phase III data, but the aggregated exposure time is lesser in phase VII than for phase III. Data from RNNP for the period 2003-2008 for X-mas tree wing and master valves has also been reviewed. In total some 29032 valve tests have been performed during this period, resulting in 317 failures. Based on this a λDU = 1.2 · 10-6 can be estimated. It should be noted that this only include failures revealed through functional testing. Also, note that RNNP data include the entire valve, i.e. also the pilot valve, and is therefore not directly comparable to the OREDA data where the pilot valve has been excluded. Based on new data from OREDA and RNNP, it appears that the rate of dangerous failures may be somewhat lower than previously assumed. The amount of new OREDA data is however somewhat scarce and the RNNP data is not directly comparable. The rate of DU failures has therefore been kept in line with the 2006 estimate. For similar reasons as the ESV/XV valves the coverage for dangerous failures has been slightly increased from 25% to 30%. As for ESV/XV’s the proportion of safe failures (as compared to dangerous failures) have been reduced in line with data from OREDA and other sources. The size of the PTIF will vary depending on the completeness of the functional testing. Here, a standard functional test where the valve is fully closed but not tested for internal leakage has been assumed.

The estimated r is based on reported failure causes in OREDA as well as expert judgements. A summary of some of the main arguments is provided in section 3.3.

Assessment The failure rate for blowdown valves is an update of the previous estimate in the 2006 handbook, [12] based on new data from OREDA phase V and VI as well as data from RNNP. Data from RNNP for the period 2004-2008 for blowdown valves has been reviewed. In total some 15392 valve tests have been performed during this period, resulting in 397 failures. Based on this a λDU = 2.9 · 10-6 (incl. pilot valve) can be estimated. This is in line with the DU estimate for blowdown valves given in the 2006 PDS handbook. Data from OREDA phase V-VII on the other hand indicates a lower rate of dangerous (and safe) failures as compared to the 2006 estimate which was primarily based on OREDA phase IV data. Recorded data from phase V-VII is however significantly less than for phase IV (approximately half the surveillance time). Based on the above, the rate of DU failures has been kept approximately the same as in the 2006 edition whereas the rate of safe failures has been somewhat reduced. The coverage for dangerous failures have been reduced to 20% since blowdown valves will rarely be operated in-between tests and therefore few dangerous failures will be detected by operator observation. The PTIF and the r values are assumed the same as for ESV/XV valves (where the PTIF is given assuming a normal/average functional testing standard).

Assessment The failure rate estimate is an update of the previous 2006 estimate based on new data from OREDA phase VI and VII as well as other sources. Note that part of the failures reported under "control and monitoring" (approx. 50%) are included as part of the valve itself. The distribution between dangerous failures and safe failures has been kept the same as in the previous edition. The coverage factor for D failures has been estimated to 30%, due to registered detection methods in OREDA phase IV and V-VII. As for ESV/XV valves this coverage include some manual observation by operators. Based on the above and the new data on solenoids, the rate of DU failures have been slightly reduced as compared to the 2006 estimate whereas the rate of safe failures has been kept the same. *The PTIF for pilot valve is included as part of the PTIF for the valve itself. The estimated r is based on reported failure causes in OREDA as well as expert judgements. A summary of some of the main arguments is provided in section 3.3.

Assessment The figures for control valves have been updated as compared to the 2006 handbook, [12]. The failure rate estimates are based on a “weighted” average of the OREDA phase III – V data. Included in the λD failures are all ‘fail to close’ (FTC) failures, 50% of the ‘delayed operation’ (DOP) failures and 25% of the ‘fail to regulate’ (FTR) failures. Hence, only the failure modes assumed relevant for shutdown purposes are included. Included in the safe failures (S) are ‘spurious operation’ and ‘fail to open’ failures as well as 25% of the ‘fail to regulate’ failures (i.e. we assume that only 50% of the FTR failures are critical with respect to spurious operation or valve closure). Note that no split has been made between small and large control valves (as was done in [13] and [14]). Based on the registered observation method for the relevant failure modes, as well as expert judgement, coverage for both dangerous and safe failures of 50% has been estimated. It is then implicitly assumed that the control valve is used in normal operation resulting in a relatively high coverage. For some cases (e.g. on some onshore plants) selected control valves may be used solely for shutdown purposes. In this case the valves will be operated infrequently, resulting in a significantly lower coverage factor. For control valves used only as shutdown valves, the coverage is suggested reduced to 20%, giving λDU and λSU estimates of 3.5 per 106 hrs and 2.0 per 106 hrs respectively. The PTIF and r values are entirely based on expert judgements. A summary of some of the main arguments is provided in section 3.3. *Data for control valves are mainly collected for valves in control service and not from applications where control valves are used for on/off shutdown service. The solenoid valves will normally not be part of the control function and therefore no solenoid valve failures are registered under control valves in OREDA. When considering failure rates for control valves used for shutdown purposes, the failure rate of a solenoid valve should therefore be added. Failure Rate References 100

= 0.5

Assessment The failure data for PSV is an update of the 2006-edition, [12]. The failure rates are based on OREDA phase IV - VII data, data from RNNP, as well as data from a student investigation into PSV data, [17]. For OREDA data only failures classified as ‘fail to open’ are considered as D failures. For safe failures, the critical failure modes ‘spurious operation’, ‘leakage in closed position’ and ‘fail to close’ have been included. Note that for relief valves, operational time is used in the failure rate estimates. Based on all OREDA data from phase IV-VII a weighted dangerous failure rate of 1.9 per 106 hours can be estimated. Similarly, a weighted average for safe failure of 1.0 per 106 hours can be found. In the RNNP project, data on PSVs are available for the period 2004-2008. A total of 53347 valve tests have been performed resulting in 2226 failures. Assuming annual testing, these data gives an estimated λDU of 4.8.10-6 per hour. On many installations the PSVs are only tested every second year. Assuming a test interval of 2 years, a λDU of 2.4.10-6 per hour results. As seen, the data from RNNP gives somewhat higher λDU values than the latest OREDA data. Since the amount of RNNP data is very extensive, the rate of dangerous failures for PSVs has been slightly increased as compared to the 2006 estimate. The rate of safe failures has been kept approximately the same. The given λDU applies for a fail to open failure within 20% of the set point pressure. If a critical failure is defined as fail to open at a higher pressure, a reduced failure rate may be applied. For the failure mode ‘fail to open before test pressure’, a λDU = 1.1.10-6 per hour is suggested (i.e. a 50% reduction as compared to the rate of failures to open within 20% of the set point , ref [17]). The PTIF and r values are entirely based on expert judgements. A summary of some of the main arguments is provided in section 3.3.

Assessment The updated failure rates for DHSV is based on two main sources: •

internal SINTEF data which gives an estimated λD of 2.0 per 106 hrs, and



updated test data from RNNP for the period 2003-2008. Here, 25926 valve tests have been performed, resulting in 764 failures. Assuming an average test interval of 6 month, this gives an estimated λDU of 6.7 per 106 hrs. If tested annually, the corresponding λDU becomes 3.4 per 106 hrs

Furthermore, the same distribution between dangerous and safe failures as for topside ESV/XV valves is assumed. Zero coverage has been assumed both for S and D failures. PTIF and r is based on expert judgements. Failure Rate References Overall failure rate (per 106 hrs) 2.0 3.4 – 6.7

Subsea Equipment

As part of the PDS-BIP work in 2004, a recommended data set for subsea equipment was established and provided as input to the updated OLF 070 guideline, [19], as well as to the PDS 2006 data handbook, [12]. The data were mainly based on the OREDA 2002 handbook, [5], and input from and discussions with experts. In the present version of the PDS data handbook, additional subsea data from the new OREDA 2009 Handbook have been utilised, thus providing a much better basis for the suggested values. It should however be noted that for some equipment groups the population is still limited. For the subsea equipment, focus has been on dangerous failures and only values for the coverage factor for dangerous failures cD is specified. Hence, the rate of undetected spurious trip failures, λSU, is not given. Values for the safe failure fraction (SFF) have been indicated. It should be noted that the SFF figures are mainly based on the reported failure mode distributions in OREDA subsea (as well as some additional expert judgements) and will therefore rely on the quality of the failure reporting in OREDA. Higher (or lower) SFFs than given in the tables may therefore apply for specific equipment types and this should in such case be documented separately. Furthermore, specific β and PTIF values for subsea components are not given. As a starting point, estimates for topside equipment can be used for these unspecified parameters. They should, however, be assessed on a case by case basis depending on their specific (subsea) application. Table 11 briefly summarizes the discussion underlying the proposed data for subsea equipment. For more detailed descriptions about the equipment configurations, the equipment boundaries and the data, reference is made to the new OREDA 2009 subsea handbook, [3]. For comments or feedback concerning the OREDA subsea data; contact the OREDA project manager or one of the participating companies, ref. http://www.oreda.com.

Note that due to the relatively low number of components in the population and the higher failure rate of a combined pressure/temperature sensor, the total critical failure rate has been slightly increased (one additional critical failure has been assumed).
