§ 16 General requirements for analyses
The responsible party shall ensure that analyses are carried out that provide the necessary basis for making decisions to safeguard health, safety and the environment. Recognised and suitable models, methods and data shall be used when conducting and updating the analyses.
The purpose of each risk analysis shall be clear, as well as the conditions, premises and limitations that form its basis.
The individual analysis shall be presented such that the target groups receive a balanced and comprehensive presentation of the analysis and the results.
The responsible party shall set criteria for carrying out new analyses and updating existing analyses as regards changes in conditions, assumptions, knowledge and definitions that, individually or collectively, influence the risk associated with the activities.
The operator or the party responsible for operating an offshore or onshore facility shall maintain a comprehensive overview of the analyses that have been carried out and are underway. Necessary consistency shall be ensured between analyses that complement or expand upon each other.
