This paper presents concepts of building a system using ontology to conduct risk identification in safety management of chemical processes. Manual risk identification requires laborious efforts in collecting and analyzing data for different process safety elements. Ontology provides intelligent integration of affected elements. Each element is represented by an ontology that provides future application with knowledge of process safety. In a distributed environment, each ontology can be represented by agent that exchanged the information to fulfill the requirement of the analysis.
