  • Operator Staff Augmentation
    • Our dedicated team of subject matter experts are available to work as an extension of your integrity management team and are equipped with proprietary software solutions for managing operational risk, regulatory compliance and providing integrity program support
  • Outflow Analysis
    • Dynamic Risk provides detailed outflow modeling to support consequence and risk assessment for liquids pipelines. Our approach is based on a 4-phase calculation including detection time, pump shut-down, valve closure and gravity drain down. Detailed outflow release volumes can be incorporated within our clients’ risk assessments, leading to more accurate environment consequence results and improved risk results.
  • Overland Spill Modelling
    • Dynamic Risk’s transient three-dimensional overland spill model leverages the outflow volume results and detailed digital elevation data to determine the migration paths of a liquid product spill based on agreed upon scenarios. Specifically, the model can be used to determine whether the spill plume would intersect waterbodies, waterways, HCAs or any defined sensitive areas. Further analysis can be done for Hydrological Transport Modeling by considering flow direction and connectivity between streams and waterbodies as required.
  • Valve Optimization Analysis
    • We provide analysis of outflow volumes and their associated spill plumes that can be used to evaluate valve configuration and optimization, as well as valve maintenance activity planning and prioritization. This assists operators with determining the optimal valve placements to achieve the most reduction in outflow volumes, keeping cost benefit analysis in mind.
