Abstract
The process of SIL determination is a major area of change in the use of safety instrumented systems. The changes involve people, technical and procedural issues; and introduce requirements where there is uncertainty and limitations in current knowledge. This paper explores the development of a formal SIL determination process for a large existing facility and the lessons that have been learnt
