Safety issues for LNG(Liquified Natural Gas) terminal or LNG tank involve various concerns such as production/transportation at cryogenic temperature of $-160^{\circ}C$, large volume of handling, flammability and explosion risk. Hence, in designing an LNG terminal rigid safety criteria and mandatory requirements are unavoidable. Since known cases of LNG related accident are very few, careful study and root cause analysis of them are very important and provide precious information to increase safety level of the LNG terminal. In this paper most key accident cases were gathered and analysed to understand fundamental safety issues of LNG terminal to prevent further accident.

The safety management of the LNG industry which shows huge growth recently, become an essential element. So the necessity of development for the pre-existing LNG storage/transport facility has been shown up and the improvement of information technology (IT) of these days make it possible to synthesize several models for integrated LNG facilitiy safety management system. This system will contains risk analysis/assessment technology, explosion, leakage and diffusion model construction technology, real-time monitoring and fault diagnosis technology, and reliability progression technology of process information through data reconciliation. The final integrated safety management system will contribute the increase of LNG industry's safety and exportation of technique.

국제해사기구가 선박배출가스규제지역 내 질산화물 규제를 적용하고 2020년부터는 항해 중인 모든 선박에 황산화물 규제를 적용하기로 하는 등 선박해양오염 규제가 강화되어, 친환경 연료로 운항하는 LNG Fuel Ship에 대한 수요가 높아지고 있다. 이로 인해 LNG 연료공급 시장규모의 성장이 전망되며 관련시설로 해상 부유상태의 FLBT(Floating LNG Bunkering Terminal)의 기술개발과 연구가 진행 중에 있다. 본 연구목적은 FLBT 시설의 설치에 적합한 후보지를 선정하는 것이다. 영해 내에 위치하고 설계수심과 수요항만과 접근성이 우수한 후보지의 제시를 위해 LNG Fuel Ship의 입출항 예상항만과 해상시설에 대한 국내외 사례조사 및 사전연구에서 제시된 후보수역에 대한 해상교통조사를 수행하고 심층분석 하였다. 조사 및 분석결과를 바탕으로 수요지 접근성과 항행안전을 고려한 FLBT 최종 후보지를 제시하고자 한다.

최근 석유, 석탄을 사용하는 연소시설이 황산화물, 먼지가 배출되지 않는 LNG(Liquefied Natural Gas)로 연료를 전환하고 있다. 점차적으로 LNG 사용이 증가함에 따라 LNG에 의한 대기오염에 대한 관심이 높아지고 있으며, 최근에는 온실가스에 대한 관심도 높아지고 있다. 따라서 털 연구에서는 LNG연소에 의한 온실가스 배출계수와 국내 온실가스 배출량을 연소시설별로 산출하고자 한다. (중략)

The optimum binder ratio of the low heat mass concrete for LNG tank was evaluated in the present study. Three types of binder such as OPC I, ground granulated blast-furnace slag powder were mixed and were used. Also fine particle cement and activator were used to raise an early age strength development and ground limestone was used to reduce the cost. As a result of the study, mix ratio II (30:30:40) was suitable for Bottom Center and mix ratio III(40:30:30) was suitable for Roof based on compressive strength and semi-adiabatic temperature.

In many mass-consumption gas facilities, natural gas is not supplied through the pipeline of the gas corporation. LNG is supplied from the gas corporation through the tank lorry to be vaporized. In order to prevent human or property damage due to gas leakage at these facilities, a study was conducted to analyze the concentration of odorant injected at the initial and consumption points. An analysis was performed to confirm the change in odorant concentration according to the pipe position in the gas facility when a constant flow rate flowed. For this study the gas samples were taken with aluminium cylinders(4.5 L) which were created a vacuum at the pressure regulator in which the odorants was injected and the points using the gas. Odorant levels of the samples were analyzed by Gas chromatography(Main Body : Agilent 7890A, Detector : ANTEC 7090).We suggest that the small facilities using LNG need to make the management system by the types of facilities for maintaining the odorization system.

The advancement of industry have increased domestic energy demands and energy facilities such as storage facility, compressed gas pipe, station, and tank lorry. Also, concern about environment have diversified energy source to clean energy such as LNG. In these major energy facilities, major accident can happen to result in fire, explosion, toxic release and etc. In addition, it may cause chain accidents to the adjacent energy facilities. In this research, safety assessment was performed through the consequence analysis of LPG liquefied petroleum gas) station, gasoline station and LNG(liquiefied natural gas) station. The obtained result will be helpful to make a safety guideline of the LPG/LNG station built adjacent to the gasoline station.

It is difficult to solve problems regarding the adjustment on demand and supply of LNG due to seasonal variations of domestic demand of LNG, a discordance among import pattern and limits of storage facilities and so on. Also, there may be instability in LNG supply due to chances of accidents at LNG producing areas. Therefore, it is very important to secure large LNG storage facilities and to stabilize LNG supply management on a long term basis. The objective of this study is to examine the real-scale applicability of a lined underground rock storage system, which have been verified by a successful operation of the Daejeon LNG pilot plant. The new technology has many advantages of better economy, safety and environment protection, for above-ground and in-ground storage systems. The results of this study may promote the first ever real scale underground LNG storage system in a rock cavern.

There are lots of energy facilities using gas(storage facility, compressed gas pipe, station, tank lorry) on the domestic. These major gas facilities cause major accidents associated with fire, explosion, toxic and etc. With the increased interest in reducing air pollution, supply of natural gas for gas vehicles is increasing. Thus, the number of establishments of LNG (Liquefied Natural Gas) and CNG(Compressed Natural Gas) stations is increasing as well. However, due to major gas accidents such as the fire and explosion accident of a Buchen LPG (Liquefied Petroleum Gas) station, it is difficult to establish a new station. In this research, we present quantitative risk assessment for LCNG;LNG multi-station and compare it result against individual risk criteria of HSE.
