Safety Integrity Levels (SIL) Study

A Safety Integrity Level (SIL) measures the relative level of risk-reduction provided by a safety function. In simple terms a SIL is a measurement of performance required for a Safety Instrumented Function. Four SIL levels are described with SIL 4 being the most dependable and SIL 1 being the least dependable. A SIL is determined based on several quantitative factors such as development process and safety life cycle management

How is a SIL study conducted?

A SIL study is conducting by the following process,

  3. 3ANSI/ISA-S84.01 – Application of Safety Instrumented Systems for the process Industries.

We will also use our past experience as well as a desk review of the results of HAZOP & HSE studies.

A SIL study will indicate if additional measures are necessary to meet the stipulated level of safety or any upgradation is necessary.
