New LNG Terminals: A Far SAFER Way ...
OCEAN-BASED LIQUID-NATURAL-GAS (LNG) TERMINAL
POWER PRODUCTION CONVERSION FACILITY INCLUSIVE:
Above: Hydro Lance LNG Fueled Electrical Generation Plant with Hydro Lance High-Speed LNG Ships delivering Liquid Natural Gas to the Power Generation Ship and Terminal. With any approach of a hurricane, major storm or the threat of terrorism, these ships may quickly speed away, faster than any storm travels to the safety of the high seas.

POWER PRODUCTION TERMINAL - AT SEA ...
-- LNG IS GASIFIED & CONVERTED DIRECTLY TO ELECTRICITY
-- ELECTRICAL POWER IS DISTRIBUTED TO LAND BY ABOVE-SURFACE POWER LINES, OR OCEAN-FLOOR CABLE, AND SOLD TO THE LOCAL UTILITIES.
-- No Pitch, Roll, Heave, Yaw, Sway, Hog or Sag in High-Force Seas
Far Greater Safety ...
Proposed land based Liquid Natural Gas Terminals are well recognized as a major danger and threat to local and distant populations, as an accident, whether natural disaster or terrorism may directly lead to a major explosion rivaling that of a nuclear devise. Having a mobile off-shore ocean-based LNG terminal is widely recognized to provide far greater safety than having land-based LNG facilities, near populations and capital structures.
Utilizing the Hydro Lance HARTH technology would bring even greater safety and efficiency to such projects as the Hydro Lance ships are designed to be nearly immune to violent oceans and winds, and would provide quick-response escape scenarios. By converting the LNG directly to Electrical Utility Power in-situ at sea, then having high-risk land based LNG receiving stations are completely avoided.
Electricity is delivered to the land-based electrical grid by wire or ocean-floor cable, thus completely avoiding the dangers of explosions near populated communities. Cost efficiencies are significantly improved by the direct HL-ship electricity conversion, reduced handling and eliminating the costs of shore-based facilities, slow off-loads, and the costs of extensive security measures required for any land-based LNG facility. The Hydro Lance new alternative becomes a safe and cost efficient means for the delivery of this more green energy.
Large and Fast LNG Transport Ships

Hydro Lance Ships have extremely low drag and ultra-ocean stability. There is no hog or sag and resulting fatigue. Cruising speeds are designed routine for 60-80 Knots through elevated Beaufort scales. Clients may optionally specify speeds at 100 Knots or above. The vessel's low drag affords up to seven times the fuel economy compared with more conventional ships on the oceans today. There is now a choice.
