About the webinar
The webinar highlights the importance of the thermodynamic model in consequence analysis.
In engineering projects, crucial decisions are taken based on the results of the risk assessments. This implies that the engineering tools used in calculating risk need to provide reliable and attested results to enhance the decision-making process.
Although most consequence modelling software uses simplified mixture models, the Shell FRED software uses an advanced thermodynamic model for multicomponent mixtures. Poor handling of thermodynamic calculations could affect your results considerably hence impacting your decision-making.
In this webinar, we go over the significance of thermodynamics calculations and the specifics of the complexity of the subject. We demonstrate how Shell FRED can assist with its advanced thermodynamic model which enables extended multi-component fuel representation to be used in particular applications.

Vinicius Simoes
Principal Risk Consultant @ Gexcon US
Vinny is a Principal Risk Consultant at Gexcon US where he specialises in consequence and risk management.
Vinny has over 20 years of experience as a consultant using tools such as Shell FRED and Shell Shepherd to conduct modelling and develop risk assessments for clients worldwide.
Dr. Steven Betteridge
Subject Matter Expert Major Hazards @ Shell
Steven has a PhD in physics from Liverpool University. He has worked for the last 20 years in the Major Hazards group within Shell. During that time, he has been involved in all aspects of the design and development of the FRED and Shepherd applications.
Steven has also managed the execution of several large-scale experiments, for LNG and recently, LH2 and analyzed the results to develop new models within FRED. He is a subject matter expert on fires, dispersion, and electrostatics within Shell.
