Abstract
Tools and techniques are provided for assessing spill risk in a liquid container storage area of a facility. In one embodiment, a process includes identifying a largest capacity liquid storage container stored in the area; applying a computer-implemented algorithm for calculating a spill reach value for the largest capacity container, and calculating various kinds of risk facet values associated with the area; and generating a risk assessment summary associated with the calculated values. An improvement path can be determined in response to the calculated values, and the liquid storage area may be physically modified to reduce spill risks in the area.
