Text Box: Security Breach at LNG Facility CTSi, Ijaz Mahboob Text Box: PHMSA has issued an advisory bulletin reminding the operators of exercising vigilance in providing security at LNG facilities. PHMSA’s pipeline safety regulations require that operators implement security measures that deter intruders at LNG terminals, facilities and peak-shaving plants. The advisory is intended to bolster and reinforce the importance of implementing and thoroughly testing security procedures and systems. The advisory was prompted by a recent security breach at a Lynn, Massachusetts LNG facility. The breach occurred at a storage tank facility where adequate security procedures were in place but were not followed. Security procedures included outer and inner perimeter fences with locked gates, a microwave intrusion system and a computer monitoring system. The primary failure was attributed to human factors.
