ioMosaic Corporation was awarded a contract to develop a Code of Practice for LNG Facilities by the Nova Scotia Department of Energy.

The natural gas supply/demand balance in North America has created renewed interest in importing liquefied natural gas (LNG). Facilities to regasify LNG have been proposed for dozens of sites, including three in Nova Scotia.

“ioMosaic was selected to undertake this important assignment because our staff has significant global expertise in the design, construction and operation of LNG facilities. We have successfully worked side by side with a number of leading LNG operators and LNG transportation companies” said Henry Ozog, General Partner of ioMosaic Corporation.

The Nova Scotia Department of Energy (DOE) has initiated the preparation of amendments to the Gas Plant Facility Regulations that govern LNG facilities. These Regulations provide the framework for how the operator must interface with the regulators in order to obtain approval to construct or operate an LNG facility. The proposed amendments to the Regulations include the incorporation by reference of industry standard CSA Z276-01, Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) – Production, Storage and Handling.

ioMosaic will (a) review the proposed amendments to the regulations and provide comments, (b) prepare a Code of Practice for LNG facilities to provide an implementation technical framework, (c) provide a report that supports the contents of the Code of Practice, and (d) provide support to DOE when it solicits comments on the Code of Practice.
