DSEAR Risk Assessment
Hazard zone diagrams
A DSEAR (Dangerous Substances and Explosive Atmospheres Regulations) risk assessment for forecourts is essential to ensure safety when handling and storing flammable and potentially explosive substances like petroleum. This assessment is a comprehensive analysis required to comply with safety regulations for facilities that handle hazardous materials.
As part of obtaining a Petroleum Licence, the assessment considers guidelines outlined in the APEA (Association for Petroleum and Explosives Administration) and EI (Energy Institute) Blue Book, which provide industry best practices for managing risks associated with fuel storage and dispensing. A key component of this assessment includes developing hazard zone diagrams that clearly outline areas of potential explosion risk, allowing for appropriate safety measures to be implemented and maintained. These assessments are vital for forecourt operators, enabling them to meet regulatory compliance and protect both staff and customers on-site.
