What are some of the measures taken to ensure LNG storage facilities’ safety?
LNG facilities’ safety requirements along with the industry standards and best practices are designed to ensure the safety and security of all LNG facilities. Storage tanks and other equipment must be made of suitable materials with the proper engineering design. There are secondary containment systems – designed to hold more than the storage tank – to ensure isolation and control of LNG if a leak occurs. When necessary, LNG storage tanks are double-walled to further enhance their integrity.
