摘要: |
A number of studies and reports have been published about the safety of LNG tankers, with varying conclusions about the likelihood and consequences of a large LNG marine spill. In order to provide the federal government and general public with a clearer picture of the risks associated with LNG tankers, the Department of Energy (DOE) tasked Sandia National Laboratories to perform an independent review ofthese studies and reports and then develop their own conclusions about the risks associated with LNG tankers. They were also tasked with developing guidance on a risk-based approach to assess and quantify potential threats to an LNG ship, to review the potential hazards and consequences of a large spill from an LNG ship, and review risk management strategies that could be implemented to teduce both the potential for, and the risks of, an LNG spill over water. The Sandia Labs Reports, references (e) and (t), provide the foundation for the Coast Guard's current position on LNG safety and provide a basis for evaluating the risks associated with LNG marine traffic. / Supplementary Notes: Supercedes NVIC 05-08. / Availability Note: Product reproduced from digital image.
