Overview

This document contains the German translation of the International Standard ISO 6338-1, which has been prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 67 "Oil and gas industries including lower carbon energy", Subcommittee SC 9 "Production, transport and storage facilities for cryogenic liquefied gases", the secretariat of which is held by AFNOR (France). The responsible national standards committee is Working Committee NA 032-02-10 AA "Anlagen und Ausrüstungen zur Verflüssigung, Verdampfung, Lagerung und Transport von tiefgekühlt verflüssigten Gasen" ("Installation and equipment for liquefaction, vaporisation, storage, and transport of cryogenic liquified gases") at DIN Standards Committee Gas Technology (NAGas). The original English version is attached in order to avoid any ambiguity in the translation. The terms of use for the German text of the standard also apply to the English text. For the documents cited in this document reference is made to the corresponding German documents in the following: for ISO 14044 see DIN EN ISO 14044; for ISO 14064-1 see DIN EN ISO 14064-1. This document provides the general part of the method to calculate the greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions throughout the liquefied natural gas (LNG) chain. The particular requirements for natural gas production and transport to the LNG plant, liquefaction, shipping and regasification are addressed in separate parts. This document covers all facilities in the LNG chain.
