REPORT EXAMPLE 1: An independent oil company operating only onshore USA wishes to review their current OEE limits of $5M. What can the database tell them about the adequacy of their OEE limit in light of industry experience? Database search criteria: Country = USA, Land/Offshore = Land, Loss Type = OEE
To download into Excel just click here We will now look at 2 other reports with the same data set – firstly by location
To download into Excel just click here And secondly by cost category (using indexed as we are looking at + 30 years of data)
This tells us: • An OEE limit of $5M would have been adequate for 467/711 or 66% of known OEE losses excess of $1M • Increasing the OEE limit to $10M would account for 605/711 or 85% and so on…
REPORT EXAMPLE 2: Analysis of European refinery losses since 1990 based on frequency and severity excluding the causes of earthquake and subsidence Database search criteria: Year of Loss = 1990 to 2010, Area = Europe, Subcategory = Refinery, Cause = all (excluding earthquake and subsidence/landslide)
REPORT EXAMPLE 3: A comparison of offshore pipeline losses in both the construction and operating phases in four different areas of the world. As this coverage is usually purchased on a limit rather than value basis, what is the industry experience of loss severity?
OFFSHORE PIPELINE LOSSES BY CLAIM AMOUNT This shows where 90% of the losses reside
