Abstract: Consistent with the mission of the Gas Research Institute (GRI), GRI liquefied natural gas (LNG) safety research is conducted for the mutual benefit of the gas industry and its present and future customers. Benefits of the GRI research program are realized chiefly through the following mechanisms: Reducing uncertainty regarding LNG storage and transport safety Providing more effective and/or less costly safety approaches and technologies This paper discusses the results and potential benefits of several completed GRI research projects in LNG safety. The following projects are covered: Crack-arrest properties of 9 percent nickel steels used in LNG storage tanks Storage dike insulation materials Human factors design criteria and checklists for LNG control rooms Thermal radiation modeling Simple-terrain vapor dispersion modeling. Also brief mention is made of related ongoing research in these areas.
