Product Overview
Horizontal LNG Storage Tank is a double-wall cryogenic pressure vessel designed for the storage and transfer of liquefied natural gas (LNG). It provides long-term low-temperature containment with minimized boil-off loss for industrial, energy, and distribution applications.

 

Engineering & Design Features
Double-wall vacuum insulated structure minimizes heat ingress and reduces LNG boil-off rate during long-term storage.
Inner vessel manufactured from cryogenic-grade stainless steel ensures reliable performance at temperatures as low as -196°C.
Carbon steel outer shell with vacuum-perlite insulation system provides mechanical protection and thermal efficiency.
Optimized pressure-retention design extends storage duration while reducing product loss and venting frequency.
Integrated safety instrumentation and protection devices support safe operation under cryogenic and pressure service conditions.

FAQ

 

 

Q: What storage capacities are available?

A: Horizontal LNG storage tanks are commonly supplied from 5 m³ to 200 m³, with larger capacities available upon request.

Q: What are the standard design parameters for temperature and pressure?

A: The standard design temperature is -196°C for the inner vessel and -40°C to +50°C for the outer shell. Standard working pressures typically range from 0.8 MPa to 1.6 MPa, but can be customized to comply with specific local ASME or PED regulations.

Q: What insulation system is used?

A: Most tanks utilize a vacuum-perlite insulation system to minimize heat transfer and LNG evaporation losses.

Q: Can third-party inspection be arranged?

A: Yes. SGS, BV, TÜV, DNV, Lloyd's Register, and customer-designated inspectors are welcome.

Q: Can the tank be supplied with complete LNG station equipment?

A: Yes. The tank can be integrated with vaporizers, pumps, pressure regulation systems, BOG systems, piping skids, and control systems as part of a complete LNG storage solution.
