The document provides a comparative study of two methodologies for risk identification and evaluation: HAZID and HAZOP. HAZID focuses on early hazard identification, while HAZOP analyzes process deviations in more detail, with both requiring a structured, multidisciplinary approach. Each method has unique benefits and drawbacks, with HAZID being suitable for early project phases and HAZOP offering more in-depth analysis for later design stages.
