Abstract: The liquefaction of natural gas, which reduces its volume by a factor of over 600, has made the storage and transportation of this fuel economically atlractve. However, this liquefaction technique has also served to increase the amount of energy in storage, process and transportation equipment by the same amount. This tremendous concentration of energy has not been overlooked by the gas utilities, nor gone unnoticed by the authorities and the general public. The safely of natural gas, especially from the fire protection standpoint, has been the subject of considerable research in recent years, and many techniques have been refined in the overall fire protection approach to the problem.
