This SIGTTO guidance note has been produced due to members’ concerns about the different interpretations of the functional requirements for ESD systems, particularly those differences between the needs of the LNG industry and those of the LPG industry and how these may interact with linked ship/shore shutdown systems (2009).
This SIGTTO report investigates the response of LNGC cargo tanks exposed to a large enveloping pool fire that could possibly result from the spillage of LNG onto the sea and its subsequent ignition.
This SIGTTO paper (2010) seeks to give guidance in the use of LNG simulation tools for a wide variety of applications during the development and operation of an LNG project and also addresses some of the training available to officers serving on the vessels.
