What is the safety record of liquified natural gas facilities?
Liquified natural gas is not a new technology; it’s been in use since World War II. The industry has an excellent safety record. No serious accidents involving a liquified natural gas terminal or storage facility in the United States have occurred in over 60 years. In the U.S., there have been only a few serious workplace accidents in the history of liquified natural gas. This type of accident could happen in any industrial setting and posed no threat to the general public.
