Abstract: The terrorist threat is real even if the probability for attack on a single plant is low. Unfortunately LNG facilities are a high profile target, thanks to significant press coverage of concerns in Boston. Due to the siting requirements in US codes, land based facilities that meet these exclusion zones have a negligible public risk. Risk mitigation measures focus on Probability times Consequences. Mitigation of both is important. However, the facility itself is at risk. As the consequences are addressed in the codes and designs, reduction of the probability needs to be addressed separately. When actively implemented, threat analysis and countermeasure plans are very constructive. Ships are generally low risk from external attack but could have serious consequences. NOTE: this paper does not address specific vulnerabilities of LNG facilities or how to address those. This should be done in a confidential security/risk audit.
