LNG hazards - modelling best practice and summary of experimental validation
Validated modelling approaches for LNG safety
According to DNV's Energy Transition Outlook (ETO) 2025, liquefied natural gas (LNG) is expected to remain an important part of the global energy mix for years to come, supporting energy security and the transition to lower carbon fuels.
LNG has been modelled in DNV's risk management solutions for many years and remains an important application area. Our solutions have been used extensively for LNG studies and are continuously maintained, developed and validated against a wide range of experimental data.
In this webinar, we will review how LNG hazards are modelled in Phast, Safeti, KFX and EXSIM, discuss the validation basis behind the models and explain when each approach is most appropriate. We will also share practical guidance on selecting the right modelling solution for different LNG hazards.
Join us for this webinar to:
- Gain a high-level overview of LNG's continuing role in the energy transition and future energy mix.
- Learn how LNG hazards are modelled across DNV's consequence and risk analysis software solutions, including Phast, Safeti, KFX, EXSIM and Phast CFD.
- Understand the validation work behind our models and the experimental data used to support them.
- Explore the capabilities and appropriate applications of different modelling approaches.
- Gain practical guidance on selecting the right tool for specific LNG safety and risk assessment challenges.
