An LNG storage tank is a storage tank that is specifically intended to hold liquefied natural gas. A frequent feature of LNG storage tanks is their ability to store LNG at temperatures as low as -162 °C (-260 °F).
Liquefied natural gas is clean, reliable, and abundant. Natural gas is a refrigerant, which means it is liquid at extremely low temperatures. Natural gas in liquid form can be transferred efficiently and safely from resource-rich regions to high-demand areas.
LNG storage tanks are generally composed of an inner tank and an outer tank.
LNG storage tanks are widely used in LNG receiving stations
LNG storage tanks are important facilities for storing liquefied natural gas.
LNG tanks are also equipped with complete safety valves, liquid level gauges, thermometers and other accessories, which must also be resistant to low temperatures.
LNG tanks have various structures, including vertical LNG tanks, horizontal LNG tanks, vertical mother-child tanks and atmospheric pressure tanks.
LNG storage tanks are widely used in the reception stations of LPG, liquefied factories, satellite liquefied devices, industrial gas vaporization stations, etc.
As a special device, LNG storage tanks are strictly supervised by design, manufacturing, installation and use.
