Lightning Protection Audits of LNG Transportation, Distribution and Processing Sites, Vietnam (2015 - 2019)

Air, land and sea infrastructure depends on continuous, reliable operation. LPI protects critical electronic systems, safeguards personnel, passengers and cargo, and minimises disruption across every transport mode.

The risk
From airport navigation aids to rail signalling, highway tunnels and ocean-going vessels. Each domain has its own failure mode, and none can tolerate prolonged outage.
Runways, control towers, hangars and terminal systems, dissipating lightning energy across expansive layouts.
Overvoltage and overcurrent on power supply and signal transmission channels damage safety-critical equipment.
Tunnels, bridges, toll stations, weighbridges and communications systems exposed to strike and surge damage.
Direct strikes to masts and tall points, surge damage to navigation, comms and onboard electronics.

Protection Plan
Well-designed systems protect people, infrastructure and automation together, never in isolation.
Protect critical assets against direct lightning strikes.
Protect equipment against incoming surges and transients.
Provide a low impedance reference earth and bond all conductive elements to minimise voltage differences.

Selected projects
Airports and aviation are crucial for global transportation. Rail networks face lightning-induced overvoltage on signal and power channels, and thousands of thunderstorms occur over oceans every hour.

As world leaders in all aspects of lightning protection, LPI / PhysElec was engaged to carry out lightning protection audits of 26 LNG transportation, distribution and processing sites in Vietnam over a period of 4 years. These audits involved detailed inspections, testing and measurements across the three keys areas of direct-strike lightning protection, surge and transient protection, and earthing & bonding.
