This paper focuses on the dynamic risk assessment method for the underground gas storage process, which combines fault tree and Bayesian network to identify risk factors and introduces fuzzy numbers to determine the prior probability. Causal and diagnostic reasoning is performed to determine the failure level of the underground gas storage facilities, and sensitivity and impact analysis are used to identify significant risk factors and possible failure paths. The time factor is also considered in the dynamic assessment and analysis of underground gas storage facilities using a dynamic Bayesian network.
Loss of the underground gas storage process can have significant effects, and risk analysis is critical for main-taining the integrity of the underground gas storage process and reducing potential accidents. This paper focuses on the dynamic risk assessment method for the underground gas storage process. First, the underground gas storage process data is combined to create a database, and the fault tree of the underground gas storage facility is built by identifying the risk factors of the underground gas storage facility and mapping them into a Bayesian network. To eliminate the subjectivity in the process of determining the failure probability level of basic events, fuzzy numbers are introduced to determine the prior probability of the Bayesian network. Then, causal and diagnostic reasoning is performed on the Bayesian network to determine the failure level of the underground gas storage facilities. Based on the rate of change of prior and posterior probabilities, sensitivity and impact analysis are combined to determine the significant risk factors and possible failure paths. In addition, the time factor is introduced to build a dynamic Bayesian network to perform dynamic assessment and analysis of underground gas storage facilities. Finally, the dynamic risk assessment method is applied to underground gas storage facilities in depleted oil and gas reservoirs. A dynamic risk evaluation model for underground gas storage facilities is built to simulate and validate the dynamic risk evaluation method based on the Bayesian network. The results show that the proposed method has practical value for improving underground gas storage process safety.
