Congressman Discusses Experimental LNG Tanker Attack

The Boston Herald ran a story Thursday quoting U.S. Rep. Michael Capuano (D-MA) about plans by a “major fuel company” to stage a controlled test in which a missile would be fired at a liquefied natural gas (LNG) tanker out at sea to see if it explodes. Capuano, whose constituents live in the Boston area, which is home to Suez’s Everett LNG terminal, told the Herald such a test would help answer questions about what might happen in the event of a terrorist attack on an LNG ship in Boston Harbor.
