This course explores safety principles and operational challenges in LNG facilities and gas transmission and distribution systems. Participants will analyze critical case studies, understand key technical concepts, and learn best practices for mitigating gas and cryogenic system risks. The course integrates real-world examples, regulatory guidelines, and the latest engineering methodologies to ensure operational safety and reliability, from pipeline rupture dynamics to frost heave prevention.
The course is designed for LNG engineers, operators, safety managers, and others involved in gas plant operations and risk management.
Learning Objectives
Upon completion of this course, participants will be able to:
- Analyze past incidents, including the Texas City Refinery and Cleveland LNG Explosion, to identify safety gaps and lessons learned.
- Assess risks associated with LNG transport, storage, and transfer, including thermal expansion, differential pressures, and gas composition.
- Explain how technical knowledge, procedure adherence, and proactive hazard identification support a robust safety culture.
- Identify relevant regulations, including 49 CFR Parts 192 and 193 and NFPA 59A, that support compliance and safety in plant operations.
- Describe proactive emergency-preparedness measures, including communication protocols, equipment maintenance, and redundancy systems.
