Description

Depend on the 2009 NFPA 59A for LNG plant safety.

Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) plants associated with pipelines must meet the requirements of NFPA 59A: Standard for the Production, Storage, and Handling of Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG), adopted by D.O.T. and referenced by other agencies including the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission. This document is also used worldwide as the final word on site selection, design, construction, and fire protection for LNG plants.

Clarified and reorganized 2009 edition helps you ensure safety.

The previous edition of NFPA 59A added first-time provisions for the siting and diking of double containment and full containment LNG containers for a new level of installation safety…added flood, wind, snow load considerations that impacted container design…and revised seismic design criteria for large, field-erected LNG containers to reflect ASCE 7.

Now, the 2009

NFPA 59A

makes important provisions like these easier to apply, through clarified language, and reorganization based on industry comments and user needs. This edition of

NFPA 59A

is essential for architects, owners, designers, engineers, fire safety officers, and AHJs.
