In petroleum operations, the safety management and the uncertainty management have traditionally been completely separated functions. The two disciplines are to large extent based on different scientific pillars and it has been difficult to obtain an integrated approach. However, the recent introduction of risk perspectives highlighting the uncertainty component of risk has provided an improved basis for development of such an approach. By seeing risk as the two-dimensional concept covering events and consequences on the one hand side and uncertainties on the other, the content and boundaries of risk assessments are changed. The gap between the two disciplines can to large extent be bridged. The purpose of the present paper is to present and discuss an integrated framework for these disciplines and traditions, based on this risk perspective. An example is included to show the practical implications of the framework.
