A major project with an overall budget of over $1 million by a consortium of 16 oil companies has been carried out to review the risks associated with large diameter (>40m) open-top floating roof storage tanks. This project was known as the LASTFIRE Project. (Large Atmospheric Storage Tank Fires) The main objectives of the LASTFIRE Project were to: Determine current levels of risk Establish recommended design and operational practice Provide risk analysis / reduction techniques Identify areas where poor understanding contributes to risk A number of project deliverables, the result of over 2 years consultative process, are now available: LASTFIRE Report The main components of the LASTFIRE Report are as follows: Analysis of Incident Frequencies Review of Escalation Mechanisms Risk Reduction Options Review of Foam Properties for Fighting Large Diameter Tank Fires Risk Workbook Lightning Protection of Floating Roof Storage Tanks LASTFIRE SLIDE PRESENTATION (PC CD ROM) Requires MS Powerpoint This complementary slide show (49 slides) is an invaluable tool for presentation purposes and can be used for training sessions in order to demonstrate the main findings of the LASTFIRE Report. The simple interface of this Powerpoint Presentation allows for easy navigation through the package, which features many illustrations, bullet points and animations. Video Presentation Fighting Floating Roof Tank Rimseal Fires This 25 minute video, made by fire-fighters for fire-fighters, draws extensively on the knowledge gained from the LASTFIRE Project and provides an invaluable guide to fighting rimseal fires under different operating conditions. A variety of training exercises and fire-fighting strategies are illustrated along with guidance on creating pre-fire plans, making this the definitive training aid for rimseal fire scenarios. Now available in following languages: French, German, Dutch, Hungarian, Italian, Spanish (please specify on order form
NEW! LASTFIRE RISK WORKBOOK (PC CD) Requires MS Excel As part of the fire hazard management philosophy adopted by the LASTFIRE Project, a methodology has been developed which enables a site-specific quantification and comparison to be made of the potential reduction in fire risk that can be achieved with different risk mitigation options. The methodology is based on a cost-benefit analysis framework that involves an assessment of a site s existing level of risk and the potential levels of risk reduction that can be achieved by implementing particular risk reduction measures. It utilises information reported in the main LASTFIRE Report, and based on the document, guidance is given on appropriate values to use for a first pass cost benefit analysis. The Workbook itself takes the form of an MS Excel spreadsheet which is simple to use guidance is included in the form of drop down boxes and pop-up notes. Default values form a worked example to facilitate analyses. It is intended that this document provides a tool to help identify the most appropriate and cost effective risk mitigation options, which in itself should be one component of a co-ordinated fire hazard management process.

TANK FIRE WORKSHOP Resource Protection International can provide a fully site-specific, on-site workshop which will enable operators and fire responders to increase their knowledge of tank fire scenarios, review fully the tank fire response strategies and tactics that are available, and to practice response tactics on the fireground using a purpose-built rimseal fire training simulator. Participants will also learn more about tank types, fire fighting foam and foam systems, fire detection options and Tank Fire Hazard Management / incident preplanning. A typical programme is given below. This workshop can be tailored to suit the individual facility for more details and a price on application, contact Dr.Niall Ramsden via ramsden@resprotint.co.uk or the contact details on the order form To provide general site familiarisation To increase knowledge of tank fire scenarios To review tank fire response strategy/tactics o Options o Strategies To practice response tactics o Fire Training Ground o Tank Farm To review plans for tank Fire Hazard Management Tank types and fire scenarios Tank incident videos Firefighting foam and foam systems Tank Fire hazard management (FHM) Protection/detection systems Fire modelling Preplanning Tank Fire Response Tactics Future Tank FHM Terminal Familiarisation Exercise Overview and Safety Features Training Ground rimseal fire simulator Tank Farm response Exercise Debrief
Foam Concentrate and Foam Systems Testing CD ROM Training Package The Essential Package for Foam System Engineers! This interactive package outlines the most common foam concentrate and foam system tests and represents an invaluable aid in facilitating foam system testing a task that should be completed on a regular basis, but very often isn t! The easy-to-use interface allows for simple navigation through testing procedures, guidance on testing regimes and interpretation of foam test results, whilst a search function gives the user quick access to the topics of interest. This CD-ROM also includes handy proformas which can be used to record foam test results quickly and easily.
Risk Assessment Techniques CD ROM Training Package Make Risk Assessment Easier to Swallow. In a world where it is increasingly important to justify any expenditure, including the money spent on fire response, it is important for all those concerned with provision of Fire Hazard Management to understand risk assessment techniques and the methods by which analysts quantify risk. In any case, legislation is moving away from prescription towards a risk based approach to assessing incident response requirements. Too often, risk assessments are presented in a way designed to confuse rather than assist. Thus they do not allow easy understanding or analysis. This multimedia package has been designed to provide, in straightforward language and with easy to follow examples, an overview and explanation of fire risk assessment techniques, including logic diagrams, risk matrices, QRA and fire modelling.

LASTFIRE Foam Test For Storage Tank Fires Test Specification In the event of a fire in a large diameter storage tank, it is imperative that a fire fighting foam with suitable physical properties is applied so that the best fire extinguishing performance is achieved. Current fire tests used to evaluate fire-fighting foams have invariably been designed for either specific foam types, or specific applications. The LASTFIRE [1] project, a joint oil industry project to review the fire risks of large open-top floating roof tanks, sought to examine existing methods and suggest possible improvements. It was concluded that no single test had been developed specifically for large tank fires. Many standards express their foam performance criteria upon the time to extinguishment, and in terms of re-involvement following burnback. Whilst these are indeed relevant parameters, it was considered that in the case of a large tank fire, thermal resistance, spreading ability and the influence of the application method would be far more critical measures of a foam s performance. This document details the full test specification. It will enable those responsible for assessing foam performance to develop a fully sitespecific foam fire test relevant to storage tank application. The specification can be adapted to suit the user s needs, and to suit the fire training ground as necessary. Included are drawings detailing the specification of test equipment such as nozzles, expansion and drainage time apparatus, and the test pan itself. For more details on this specification, contact Dr. Niall Ramsden at ramsden@resprotint.co.uk
Foam Test Kit / CD ROM This Foam Concentrate and Foam System Test Kit comes in it s own rugged and stylish case and includes all the apparatus needed to test foam systems on a regular basis. Also included is a copy of the interactive CD ROM Foam Concentrate and Foam Systems Testing, which details all the test procedures and the theory behind them, as well as useful background information on fire fighting foam.
