Abstract: Since the introduction of the Material Transportation Bureaus (MTB) Federal Safety Standards for LNO facilities (Federal Register, 23 October 1980) (see CFR 49, part 193) there has been some confusion over the interpretation of requirements involving fire protection. This paper is an aid to those plant personnel involved in the implementation of Subpart 1 of these standards entitled, Fire Protection and particularly section 193.2817, Fire Equipment. Guidance is given in three areas: 1. Estimating the type, size, and severity of fires and explosions possible at LNG facilities 2. Determining priorities in the mitigation of fire hazards at LNG facilities 3. Determining fire prevention measures that are applicable to the LNG facilities, particularly in determining LNG fire control equipment requirements Emphasis is on providing simple, easy-to-use methods for plant engineering personnel. References and suggested sources of information are provided for more detailed discussions on particular problem areas.
