Exposure: Refinery and Storage Farm 29.22°N 90.09°W • Location • Facility TRV • Breakdown of TRV by blocks • Breakdown of block TRV by components (e.g., cooling towers, control centers, reactors, etc.) • Elevation of blocks and components • Product Daily Revenue 29.23°N 90.12°W
Exposure: System Operations Network • Operational connectivity from wells to sales • Connectivity between facilities AND within facilities • Essential for accurate BI loss est. .es Refinery Connectivity System Connectivity Platform 1 Platform 2 Platform 1 Platform 2 VS. Storage Refinery Storage Refinery Sales Sales
Mean Damage Ratio Wave Height - Deck Height Vulnerability of Platforms to Wave Loading Mean Damage Ratio Wind Speed
Vulnerability of Pipelines to Currents/Mudslides • Pipeline Vulnerability defined by fragility functions relating probability of a particular damage state to the appropriate hazard intensity measure
Probabilistic Loss Analysis + Event Catalog Site-Specific Hazard Curves Physical Loss BI Loss Exposure (Assets) and Vulnerability
Probabilistic Loss Estimates: By Peril • Loss by peril: note difference in relative loss between 100 yr and > 1000 yr loss. Helps determine appropriate risk mitigation strategy within portfolio. Waves Wind Surge Current Total Loss Mean Return Period (years)
Probabilistic Loss Estimates: By Asset • Disaggregation of loss (PD and/or BI) into primary components (could be amongst properties in the portfolio, by coverage, etc.). Helps determine where to focus risk mitigation. AAL Storage Platform 2 Oil Wells Refinery Pipeline Platform 1 Gas Wells Portfolio Oil Wells Storage Platform 1 Refinery Platform 2 Gas Wells Pipeline
Probabilistic Loss Estimates: Network • Explicit network analysis leads to realistic BI computation; ignoring network results in markedly erroneous results Network NOT included Network included Total Loss Mean Return Period (years)
Conclusions • Significant offshore and onshore exposure at risk from tropical cyclones • Scientific and engineering approach for probabilistically quantifying the hazard, physical damage, and business interruption • Quantitative risk estimate can provide the sound basis for informed decision making related to catastrophe risk mitigation
