Source: International Energy Agency
Last updated: 15 February 2022

This official standard covers environmental and safety aspects that apply to facilities that deal with LNG for storage and regasification. In particular, in regard to pipelines and accessories, equipment should be installed in order to control the physical alterations that naturally occur given changes in temperature, unions, and valves. This is meant to prevent failures in pipelines, leakages, tensions and distortions, and leakages from valves and connected equipment (bombs and turbines) (Art. 5.1.8.8).
