Description
Summary:FSRU (floating storage and regasification unit) is LNG plant that is starting to be used in Indonesia. FSRU’s main systems are LNG handling system, storage system, and regasification system. Failure in one of these systems will cause hazard that affect surrounding environment. It is important to conduct hazard analysis so the safety measures to prevent damage or failure can be prepared. Hazard analysis that was conducted in this study was focused on FSRU’s storage tank. The software used in this study was PHAST because this software can generate comprehensive results and has been validated by many researchers. PHAST software had simulated hazard that may happen and its effect in scenario of 250 mm hole and 750 mm hole leakage in LNG storage tank. The results from PHAST software showed hazards that may happen in the event of LNG storage tank leakage are jet fire, pool fire, flash fire, and vapor cloud explosion. The effects of each hazard to the environment was also obtained.
