Marine QRA of LNG Transport via an LNG Vessel The Requirement A BMT customer was looking to build an LNG terminal in Shenzhen, China for transporting cargo from Shenzhen to Hong Kong via LNG vessels. The proposed development would require the vessels to travel on a relatively busy and narrow water channel called Tonggu Channel. BMT was commissioned by the customer to carry out a Marine QRA (MQRA) to assess the additional risk from the LNG tankers to the land population along the Tonggu channel. The result of the QRA study was expressed in the form of individual risk contours and societal risk F-N curves. Our Approach In order to calculate the individual risk and societal risk, the following steps were carried out: 1. Hazard Identification – the mode of collision, impact energy and thus the
