| With the acceleration of industrialization and urbanization in China, energy andchemical products demand gap significantly increased. It is a necessary requirement toincrease construction of petrochemical projects and to enhance capacity of petrochemicalindustry. Furthermore, higher standards of safety management are posed by the innatecharacteristics of petrochemical projects including heterogeneity of factors, rigor oftechnology, high-risk in production, as well as capital and technology-intensive. There isno healthy and sustainable development of petrochemical projects without safetymanagement. Oil storage and transportation are the core business of petrochemicalprojects. Therefore, to strengthen the safety management of the process is a key link toenhance the safety capabilities of petrochemical projects.The core problem of safety management of petrochemical projects lies ininformation asymmetry of all parties involved, especially the safety informationasymmetry. The essence is that there exists no platform for integration and share of allinformation covered in the project. Low efficiency of information utilization hinders theenhancement of safety management. In order to solve this problem, the thesis isestablished in the life-cycle of petrochemical project, applies the increasingly matureBuilding Information Model (BIM) technology, grounds on the Industry FoundationClasses (IFC) standard, and based on the safety management demand of oil storage andtransportation to construct a safety information model.Firstly, the thesis summarizes the production characteristics of petrochemicalprojects, defines life-cycle of petrochemical projects, analyzes relevant factors whichaffect the safety of petrochemical projects oil storage and transportation with theapplication of safety chain approach, and then discusses the life-cycle safety demand ofoil storage and transportation engineering. Secondly, it continues to discuss theories and requirements of the Industry Foundation Classes and Building Information Model. Then,it analyzes the principles and ideas of the BIM model, and in view of the IFC standardbuilds the framework of BIM model. According to the safety demands of oil storage andtransportation, the thesis focuses on the mechanisms of transformationand correlation between safety information and BIM elements, completes the expansionof the BIM model’s safety dimension, and proposes the solution to BIM safetyinformation model of oil storage and transportation. Finally, the thesis analyzes andverifies the substantiality and effectiveness of the BIM safety information model on thecase of oil storage and transportation engineering during operation and maintenancemanagement. |
