[ Industry pack · Oil & Gas ]

Oil & GasThe chain from hazard to operation, kept whole.

The Oil & Gas pack runs an advisor workflow, backed by 13 persona agents, that keeps HAZOP and LOPA outputs, safety requirements, SIL context, management of change, proof testing, process-safety indicators, hazardous-area constraints and OT cybersecurity linked in Azure DevOps. It traces and checks. Your site authorities decide.

No card required. Your data stays in your Azure DevOps tenant.

[ The engineering reality ]

The chain from hazard to operation must hold.

In the process industries, a change has to preserve a long chain: hazard analysis and protection layers, then safety requirements, design, configuration, proof testing, operation, maintenance and management of change. The evidence for that chain is spread across engineering and operations, held by different teams in different tools. When a set point or a logic block changes, someone has to find the HAZOP scenario behind it, the LOPA assumptions it relies on, the SIF it belongs to and every procedure that depends on it. Doing that by hand is slow, and a missed link is a safety gap.

  • 01

    Hazard links go stale.

    HAZOP scenarios, safeguards and SIFs are recorded once. When the design changes, the links back to the scenario are rarely updated.

  • 02

    SRS gaps hide in the detail.

    Missing units, set points, response times, diagnostics or bypass rules in a safety requirements specification surface during validation, not during review.

  • 03

    MOC closeout is hard to prove.

    Training, procedures, tests and startup checks are completed, but the evidence that each one closed is scattered across systems.

  • 04

    Proof-test readiness is checked late.

    Procedures, intervals, isolations and restoration steps are confirmed just before the test, when a gap delays the work.

[ What the pack configures ]

Four layers tuned to process safety.

The advisor and persona agents work with the classifications, relationships, frameworks and gates process-safety change is reviewed against. You edit each layer in plain English and add your own site procedures.

  1. 01 Classification

    Hazard, SIL and MOC classes.

    Process hazard and consequence, protection layer, safety instrumented function and SIL context, hazardous area, process-safety event tier, OT zone and conduit, asset and operational criticality, and MOC class.

  2. 02 Traceability model

    HAZOP scenario to operating evidence.

    HAZOP scenario, risk assessment or LOPA, SIF and SIL decision, safety requirements specification, design or configuration, validation or proof test, MOC and approval, then operating and maintenance evidence.

  3. 03 Standards & frameworks

    The methods your safety team uses.

    IEC 61511, IEC 61508 context, HAZOP and LOPA methods, API 754 process-safety indicators, OSHA PSM, COMAH or Seveso as applicable, ATEX and hazardous-area context, and IEC 62443 OT cybersecurity.

  4. 04 Lifecycle gates & evidence

    From HAZOP review to closeout.

    HAZOP and LOPA review, SRS review, design, logic and configuration review, MOC approval, validation, pre-startup safety review, proof test, maintenance, and closure evidence.

[ Traceability model ]

The Oil & Gas chain, kept intact.

A set-point change without an updated proof-test procedure is caught, and the link is restored before closeout.

  1. HAZOP scenario
  2. LOPA
  3. SIF / SIL
  4. SRS
  5. Design / config
  6. Proof test
  7. MOC approval
  8. O&M evidence
[ Priority workflows ]

Where the agents do the work.

Six workflows configured for process-safety change. Each starts from a trigger your team set, reads only the scope you allow, and stops where your MOC procedure needs an authorised reviewer.

  • Hazard and protection-layer traceability

    Link scenarios, safeguards, SIFs, requirements, implementation, tests and residual risk, and report any scenario with a broken chain.

    Requirements Engineer Agent
  • SRS quality and change impact

    Check the SRS for completeness, units, set points, response, diagnostics, bypass and testing, and trace the downstream impact of each change.

    Business Analyst Agent
  • Management of change

    Track reason, scope, hazards, approvals, design and configuration, training, procedures, tests, startup and closeout on the MOC record.

    Compliance Officer Agent
  • Proof-test and maintenance readiness

    Check procedure, interval, configuration, isolation, safety, evidence, findings and restoration before a proof test is scheduled.

    QA Engineer Agent
  • Process-safety event follow-up

    Classify events, link causes and changes, create actions, update hazards and controls, and track the evidence to closure.

    Product Owner Agent
  • OT security and evidence

    Triage findings by operational impact, and keep approved remediation and compensating-control evidence current.

    DevOps Engineer Agent
[ Agent roles ]

An advisor and 13 persona agents.

The supplied catalog includes an Oil Gas Advisor. The Agent Library adds an Oil & Gas / Energy section of 13 role-based persona agents, grounded in IEC 61508/61511 (ISA-84), IEC 62443 zone and conduit security, OSHA PSM and API RP 754. Add one with Use, and Compatibility Alignment maps it to your process template.

[ Example run ]

A logic or set-point change is proposed.

An engineer proposes a set-point change on a safety instrumented function, and a conditional trigger on the new MOC item starts the advisor. It traces the affected HAZOP scenario, LOPA assumptions, SIF and SIL context, SRS, configuration, proof-test procedure, bypass and alarm logic, training, MOC approvals and startup checks. It creates the actions the change requires and posts a finding where a document has not been updated. The run pauses on an Open Task for the named process-safety reviewer, who can answer, attach files, and approve or reject. Closeout evidence is verified before the MOC can close, and the full history stays in Job Explorer.

[ Human responsibility ]

Agents trace and check. Site authorities decide.

Agents structure information, trace links, check completeness and route evidence within the scope you configure. Process safety, functional safety, operations, control engineering, maintenance, OT security, MOC and site authorities keep responsibility for risk, SIL, field change, startup and regulatory decisions. Required Approval holds the run until the named person decides.

[ FAQ ]

Oil & Gas questions.

No. It can structure information and apply approved calculations or checks, but qualified multidisciplinary teams conduct and approve the analysis.

No. It checks completeness and routes evidence. Authorised reviewers approve and close the change.

Not by default. Any connection would need a verified architecture and an approved read and action boundary. The agents work on the engineering record in Azure DevOps.

A section of 13 role-based persona agents in the Agent Library, including Product Owner, Business Analyst, Systems Architect, Compliance & Risk Officer and Requirements Engineer, grounded in process control and safety instrumented system practice.

Yes. Attach them as knowledge, or turn on Bring Your Own Data so the agent retrieves from your documents, Azure DevOps queries and wiki pages during the run.

No. Agents run inside your Azure DevOps environment and read only the context their workflow is scoped to. Your project data is not used to train models.

Credits are $0.01 each, pooled across your organization, with no per-user fees. A rule-shaped completeness check can run as an Execution Agent for a flat 4 credits. Agents pause at zero.
