Investigating accidents involving gas
A malfunction or defect in a gas installation or one of its components can have major consequences. These may include material damage, financial losses or in the most severe cases, personal injury. Careful investigation of such incidents is essential to determine the cause, prevent recurrence and establish liability. Kiwa supports clients with independent and technically in-depth investigations into accidents and failures involving gas installations.
Accidents and Incidents Analysis
The independent investigation of incidents enables them to be used objectively as lessons to be learnt for the future. By learning from incidents, the correct measures can be taken to reduce these. For gas network operators in the Netherlands, Kiwa Technology provides a call-out service that can be reached 24/7.
Boiler room under ground level
Certification of a boiler room under ground level is intended to reduce the probability of a gas explosion in the boiler room to a significant extent. This is achieved by implementing additional measures.
Gas systems in residential complexes
As a building owner, you are responsible for the safe use of gas. It is therefore essential to have clear insight into the potential risks and the extent of those risks. Kiwa can support you in this. We have developed a method to determine the risk level of a residential complex. Based on the results of this risk analysis, housing associations or homeowners’ associations (Dutch: VVE’s) can identify which complexes require immediate action to prevent unsafe situations. It also provides insight into which complexes present limited risks and shows how simple measures can improve safety levels.
Industrial Gas Systems
Gas systems that are used in industrial processes must be suitable for use and demonstrably comply with all environmental and safety requirements.
