The growing Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) maritime transport requires the corresponding construction of new terminals where some basic operations are performed, such as: loading, unloading, storage, liquefaction and regasification of LNG. The construction of the terminals shall follow strict regulations according to the country of construction which, in most cases, require a licensing procedure that is mainly focused on safety analysis aspects. This is more relevant when terminals are located near dense populated areas. The purpose of the present study is to develop the risk model associated with LNG spills during the whole shipping process, identifying their causes as well as the corresponding operations when spills are detected. Some of these operations take place in the LNG terminals. The spillage frequencies of occurrence are also quantified. These activities are inherent part of the safety analysis procedure, employing the fault tree technique. Both, the cause identification and the frequency quantification are based on data collected earlier (IMO, 2007).
