It is the norm in the nuclear industry for Deterministic Safety Assessment to be the main influence on ALARP decisions rather than relying heavily on Probabilistic Safety Assessment. However, as Deterministic Safety Assessment can often be carried out in an extremely conservative manner, are balanced ALARP decisions being taken? Rolls-Royce is pursuing a number of approaches to safety cases and supporting safety assessments that are challenging the norm through a greater understanding of the risk associated with Deterministic Safety Assessment. The talk will describe examples and the challenges faced with gaining approval from regulators.
