Оценка влияния человеческого фактора на возникновение аварийных ситуаций в нефтегазовой отрасли

The article describes main methods for assessing the influence of human factor on the accidents initiations in the oil and gas industry. According to the statistics, every second accident is due to the human fault as a result of human factor manifestation. Despite the large number of regulations and safety rules, there are still many accidents. This fact can be explained by the reason that these measures do not consider the biological nature of man. The reasons leading a person to dangerous situations are considered in the article. Neuropsychological methods allow us to identify any health deviations, thereby eliminating the danger of human factor. The authors attempt to answer the question of how to ensure a high degree of safety at the complex and hazardous enterprises in the oil and gas industry. It is necessary to be able to assess the influence of human factor on the development of emergency situations. There are several methods to determine the influence of human factor on the accident occurrence, for example, SHEL, SHARP, THERP, HCR, SLIM, DNE, MAPPS methods, as well as an integrated indicator of human factor. However, these methods are not universal and perfect, therefore there is a need to do additional research in this area. The need of an integrated indicator for assessment of human factor influence on industrial risks is theoretically substantiated for the first time in this article. The need of development of the risk management algorithm in the oil and gas industry is scientifically proven, with the use of calculation method for assessing the human factor influence.
