Referring to a real case located in the lower Adriatic Sea (involving the floating exploitation of an oil reservoir in deepwater conditions), the paper presents the first results of new hazard analyses focused upon the role of the components of the production system which are located between the subsea wellheads and the FPSO unit. Therefore, the main concern of the study is the validation of a risk assessment methodology and its application to a real and peculiar study case. The analysis leads to start drawing significant conclusions concerning the most serious accidental events, together with the possible implications related to the occurrence frequency and to the dimension of the outcoming consequences. The results of the study outcome in a project-oriented way, as fast as project review and editing (e. g.) could be concerned, with particular reference to the impact prevention toward the environment, within a global project overview.
