A Systematic Review of Asset Integrity and Process Safety Management Sustainability for Onshore Petrochemical Installations

This paper presents a systematic review of the contributions of asset integrity and process safety management for the safe operations and sustainability of onshore petrochemical installations. The review highlights how the two systems work as prerequisites for minimizing industrial accidents and preserving the environment. Their contributions to the management of safety-critical equipment and the integration of the emerging technologies of Industry 4.0 are provided. Based on a systematic review of more than one hundred academic papers and gray literature, the authors highlight considerable gaps associated with the operations of the two systems mostly functioning without integration. The authors propose a new conceptual framework, integrated asset integrity and process safety management (iAIPSM), to address the gaps. This review provides insights to strengthen operational safety, ensure regulatory compliance, and support the advancement of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) within the sector.
