South Hook LNG terminal

[5] The terminal is built to receive, store and re-gasify liquefied natural gas shipped from the Qatargas 2 LNG plant in Qatar.

This allowed the tanks to be located such that they cannot be seen from the Milford Haven – Dale road that runs north along the terminal.

A trial of new exhaust silencers has been implemented but they are not producing a significant improvement in low level frequency mitigation.

Local communities are forming a number of pressure groups to encourage the South Hook Terminal, Qatargas and regulatory Authorities to carry out further assessments and enforcement.

It is claimed by Safe Haven that in case of gas ignition, it could endanger twenty thousand lives and that there are concerns that sufficient risk assessments had not been carried out into the possibility of a collision or major incident at the port.
