With a sharp increase in oil prices and rising concerns over emissions from energy production, natural gas is becoming increasingly popular. It is viewed as the cleanest burning of all fossil fuels because less Carbon Dioxide, Sulfur Dioxide, and Nitrogen Oxide are released when natural gas is burned compared to what is released during the burning of oil and coal. In addition, natural gas is widely available. The infrastructure for natural gas already exists and consumers can transition easily from oil to natural gas. Domestic reserves of natural gas are decreasing and accessing new domestic supplies may prove to be costly. Energy suppliers are looking to the world market to meet demands. Natural gas can be shipped via pipeline. However, this is not always feasible when sources are not located on the same continent. The most effective way of transporting natural gas internationally is in its liquid form by way of tanker ship. In order to offload Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) tankers, piers are necessary. These piers are often connected to processing plants where LNG is converted back to natural gas and shipped to consumers via pipeline. Safety is a crucial component in assessing whether an LNG marine terminal project should move forward. There are several areas of concern surrounding the chemical makeup of LNG itself. Questions are often raised as to whether LNG is flammable, what happens if it leaks, and if it can explode. A comprehensive understanding of the potential types of accidents that can result from LNG marine terminal operations and the potential scope of these accidents are crucial elements in deciding where LNG marine terminal facilities will be located and how the concerns of those living and working near the LNG marine terminal site will be mitigated. Proper regulation and oversight is essential to ensuring safety precautions for disaster prevention are in place and, if a disaster should occur, appropriate measures are taken to minimize damages. In addition, the construction of LNG marine terminals and the operation of marine terminals and LNG tanker ships have environmental implications. Concerns often raised include disruption and destruction of coastal habitat during terminal and pier construction, as well as terminal and ship operation, destruction of the sea floor and riverbeds through dredging, including erosion and sedimentation, and increased emissions from terminal and tanker ship operation. Safety and environmental concerns must be considered in conjunction with the economic impact LNG marine terminals provide. It is estimated that LNG will play an increasingly important role in the US natural gas market. Currently, about 23% of the energy produced in the United States comes from natural gas and this number is expected to increase. The major supplies of natural gas in the US currently come from domestic production, around 80-85%. Imports of natural gas from Canada account for around 12% and the remaining 3% comes from the importation of LNG. Examining the BP Crown Landing LNG marine terminal proposed for the Delaware River in Logan Township New Jersey as a case study can provide insight and understanding into the safety, environmental, and economic conflicts that can occur during the siting of LNG marine terminals.

This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For old and new studies in decision making and risk analysis, this book should stand at tlle watershed. Studies of conflict resolution and public policy will surely now have to take account of the model investigation provided by the IIASA team, and many things will not be the same again. This is a report of inquiries into the siting of liquefied energy gas (LEG) facilities in the Federal Republic of Germany, the Netherlands, the United Kingdom, and the United States. The risks of transporting this highly combustible stuff, and the economic benefits of being able to bring a natural energy source from one side of the globe to the other, holding it, and piping it out as needed, make LEG a model case for studying the public response to dangerous technology. The dangers of LEG are differ ent from those of nuclear power, for instance, where the response too often becomes entangled with the fear of nuclear war. The dangers of LEG include unco~trollable explosions, rather than insidious contami nation. But the degree of dangerousness is very much of the same order as that of nuclear power, and is at least as difficult to assess. In four different countries the constitutional procedures involved in obtaining approval of nuclear or LEG facilities are on record. The four case histories here are a model for comparative study of conflict resolu tion. The period over which the negotiations developed is much the same.
