Abstract
In this research, two methods, the STPA and
Bowtie, were applied to realize a hazard identification on
pipeline transportation, more precisely a condensate pipeline, in SKIKDA region. This identification was followed
by a comparison of the results obtained previously, with
respect to some aspects; we compared all hazards identified
by both methods and classified them into categories, also
comparing consequences and losses; we also compared the
different steps of each method used. The study performed
allows us to determine the main differences using the
STPA and Bowtie methods for hazard identification on
pipeline transport and highlights a complementary while
using them in order to identify in a more exhaustive way
the hazards associated with the system being studied. Their
combination may be more useful for a thorough hazard
identification.
