Note:
The above examples are for illustrative purposes only - purely examples to illustrate the principle
Activity = Hazardous activity due to the hazards associated with the activity
Threat is that thing that can release, unleash or cause the hazard to be realised examples:
Threats are issues like Corrosion, over pressurisation, hot surfaces, alcohol, fatigue, sub standard practices etc
Not all control barriers have been included in the above examples
Determination of residual risk is dependent on contractors assessment
