The history of LPG storage facility failure, facility design philosophy, operating and maintenance procedures, and various ?re protection and ?re?ghting approaches are presented. This publication, since it supplements API Standard 2510 and provides the basis for many of the requirements stated in that standard, must be used in conjunction with API Standard 2510.
