Abstract: Abstract The Port, as a transportation hub, possesses a strong function of gathering and evacuating, facing a high risk of serious production safety accidents. Especially, port storage tanks involve diverse safety hazards, such as oil spills, leakage, fire, and explosion, due to their wide area covered as well as relatively large equipment and facilities. Given the centralized and connected layout of most port storage tank areas, the leakage of a certain storage tank can easily lead to a chain accident, eventually resulting in serious consequences. In this regard, this research identifies and analyzes the potential safety production risks faced by port storage tanks through case analysis of typical accidents and comprehensive identification of related risks. Based on the identified safety production risks, this research further establishes a multi-dimensional risk evaluation index system suitable for port storage tanks by utilizing an analytic hierarchy process (AHP), constructing a risk evaluation model characterized by all-parameter interaction and coupling, with the indexes of core criteria layer and factor layer being optimized and determined. Moreover, this research comprehensively applies relevant theories and methods of safety engineering systems represented by AHP to implement the fuzzy comprehensive evaluation of safety production risks, thereby obtaining the high-risk points and overall risk index of storage tanks in each port involved. In this foundation, this research ultimately determines the weak links of storage tank supervision as well as the key points of safety supervision.
