Abstract

This paper is a set of background notes on decision-making for the siting of a Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) terminal in the Netherlands, prepared for the IIASA risk research project on liquefied energy gases (1980-1982).

The paper provides a detailed account of the major aspects of the decision process on LNG in the Netherlands, but it is in no way to be considered as a finished research report. It was prepared as an internal working document to facilitate discussion within the IIASA research team, and has provided the basis for the analysis of the Dutch LNG decision process as featured in the final IIASA research report on "Risk Analysis and Decision Processes: The Siting of LEG Facilities in Four Countries" (IIASA 1982 and a forthcoming publication of Springer-Verlag).

Finally, it is stressed again, that this paper is to be considered as a preliminary working document only, which was prepared while research was still in progress. Results of further analysis and conclusions as to the Dutch case study on LNG siting, are reported in the final IIASA study on decision processes and LEG siting (IIASA 1982).
