LOPA stands for Layers of Protection Analysis. It is a risk assessment technique used to evaluate the effectiveness of existing layers of protection and determine if additional layers are necessary to manage and mitigate identified risks. LOPA is typically conducted after a preliminary hazard analysis, such as a HAZID or HAZOP study, has identified potential hazards.
