Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) Storage and Import and Export Equipment
- Q516. What are the equipment leak requirements for liquefied natural gas facility equipment that is in gas service? Is it only required to be reported if it is found to be leaking as defined in the rule?
- Q517. Do I have to calculate emissions from operational LNG storage tank venting at LNG storage facilities or LNG import or export terminals? Also, am I required to survey and report emissions from pressure relief valves?
- Q518. How are we to treat GHG reporting applicability offshore LNG where the offshore terminal is basically buoy out in the ocean where a ship connects, regasifies the LNG onboard and injects natural gas under pressure into the pipeline?
- Q519. Is an LNG Storage vessel considered "above ground" if any portion of the vessel is above grade?
- Q520. At LNG Storage sites, how should pumps that are internal and submerged be treated?
- Q521. For a facility with equipment classified under 40 CFR 98.232(h)(5)-(8), is the correct methodology to conduct a leak detection survey as in 98.233(q) and use 98.233(r) to estimate emissions from sources determined to be leaking?
- Q522. Are LNG storage sites located adjacent to subpart D facilities under “common control” required to report emissions under the subpart D “facility” or should the facility report the emissions as a separate subpart W facility?
- Q524. For a liquefied natural gas import facility, do boil-off venting emissions from an LNG storage tank need to be reported?
- Q611. I have a question pertaining to Subpart W. In 98.232(q) the listing of equipment that must have leak detection conducted includes a reference to 98.232(h)(4) which does not exist. Please clarify what the paragraph in 98.232(h) should reference?
