What are the main hazards of LNG?
These and other reports address the physical hazards of LNG, such as pool fires, flammable vapor clouds, fire, and cryogenic impacts. Some reports also address ship safety, terminal safety, liquefaction facility safety, and security.

A key risk in LNG facilities is an uncontrolled release of a cryogenic, toxic, or flammable fluid. Such releases can originate in various parts of the process system. The consequence of these releases depends on what they expose and on whether they are ignited. In short, the essential LNG facility hazards can be grouped into seven categories.
- Temperature Cryogenic liquid releases that cause embrittlement if they expose materials not designed to handle such releases, and freeze burns if they expose personnel.
- Hot vapor releases from turbines, boilers, and engines for power and heat generation.
- Toxic Hydrogen sulfide H2S or ammonia releases that are toxic.
- Asphyxiation Nitrogen oxide, carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, or sulfur dioxide releases that replace oxygen in an area and could cause asphyxiation.
- Pool fire Liquid releases that form a pool on the ground or water and ignite, creating a potentially long-lasting pool fire.
- Jet fire Pressurized gas or liquid releases that ignite, creating a high heat flux jet fire.
- Flammable vapor dispersion/ flash fire Gas or liquid releases that form a flammable cloud in an open area, and ignite, causing a short and intense flash fire that is harmful to personnel.
- Vapor cloud explosion (VCE)Gas or liquid releases that form a flammable cloud in a congested or enclosed area, and ignite, causing an explosion and a pressure wave.
IN 2014 blast “Early Monday, a “processing vessel” at the Williams facility near the small town of Plymouth, Washington, exploded, spraying chunks of shrapnel as heavy as 250 pounds as far as 300 yards, according to local emergency responders. The flying debris pierced the double walls of a 134-foot LNG tank on site, causing leaks. Five workers were injured, and local responders warned that vapors from the leaks could trigger a more devastating, second explosion. A county fire department spokesman said authorities were concerned a second blast could level a 0.75 mile “lethal zone” around the plant.
Everyone within a two-mile radius of the site was evacuated, and a bomb-squad robot was deployed to snap photos of the damaged tank to avoid putting workers at further risk. Some who did approach were reportedly sickened by fumes.”
These projects get approved through crony corruption of neoliberal ideology that Puts Profit above the health and safety of the Communities.
