Designing safety into LNG export/import plants.

Author(s) : VEGA F. F. de la, DURR C.

Summary

The paper illustrates the application, to LNG plants, of the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC-61508/61511) procedures to determine that the safety level of the instrumentation system is consistent with the risk acceptance criteria of the project. The importance of using HAZID and HAZOP procedures at different points in the design, as well as several 3D model reviews of the plant by an audit team are described.
