Risk Management Research Of A Desalination Project

Facing the global freshwater shortages, most coastal countries think to the sea to have more fresh water. Therefore, desalination technology development and the construction of desalination projects cause more and more national attention. Chinese urban, industrial, agricultural water shortage situation is also very obvious accordingly, the construction of desalination projects is also increasing. However, due to the inherent slow development of desalination projects, large investment, high cost inherent disadvantages, as well as the process of development of desalination projects for desalination exist, such as the importance of sufficient understanding of the key technologies with independent intellectual property rights less equipment manufacturing and supporting capacity is weak, the lack of overall planning and policies and regulations to guide, water resources development issues such as the use of market mechanisms are inadequate, resulting in the operation of desalination projects occurred during the semi-production and all production conditions.Articles from the project risk management perspective, first of all sort out abroad on project risk management and desalination project related documents, to clarify the status of risk management desalination projects and developments Secondly, the article describes the theoretical basis for research, namely risk management theory, and a basic overview of desalination projects were introduced and the project feasibility and market demand are analyzed.Desalination projects are particularly at risk unique features, articles from A desalination project to be a specific case of risk identification, recognition result is that desalination project risks including engineering risk, technology risk, financial risk and environmental risk. In risk identification, based on the article with a SWOT analysis, sensitivity analysis and analytic hierarchy process AHP project risks were assessed. Assessment results is that different risk factors of risk is different, the price of the product water project economic sensitivity is higher, the overall level of project risk is technology risk for the largest proportion, followed by the financial risk, risk of re-engineering, and finally the environmental risks. Finally, the article on the basis of risk assessment, pointing out A desalination projects focus on risk control and corresponding countermeasures.Articles utilization project risk management theory, combined with A desalination project examples, project risk for an effective identification, analysis and evaluation of proposed response measures to reduce project risk level, as A desalination projects provide smooth basis, and for China’s construction and operation of desalination projects provide a reference.
