Abstract

Offshore engineering refers to the exploration and exploitation, rational utilization and proper protection of marine resources and is notably characterized by high risk and high investment. With the increase in human's deed and ability to use and develop the ocean resources, offshore operations are becoming more and more frequent. In the process of offshore oil and gas exploration and clean energy development and utilization, offshore platforms are indispensable means of equipment. Due to the problems of the technology, management and natural disasters, the offshore operation accidents emerge one after another. It is an important and hot topic to study the operation safety of offshore platform, find out the root cause of accidents, and take proper measures to prevent them. This paper mainly analyses and summarizes the risk factors affecting the safety management of offshore platforms based on the accident cases of offshore platforms over the years, and combines with the analysis results by means of expert questionnaire the risk matrix method to assess the level of each risk factor, determine the influencing factors with higher risk levels, and finally, based on the results of risk assessment, put forward corresponding safety management suggestions to promote the improvement of the effectiveness of maritime safety management.
