In the realm of LNG logistics, while numerous courses focus on its transportation via ships, fewer focus on crucial aspects of LNG storage tanks at import/export terminals. This one-day course offers a comprehensive insight into the basic design, construction, and operation of LNG storage tanks, expounding on the fundamentals of cryogenic storage and the safety features inherent in above-ground LNG tanks.

Aligned with industry standards such as API 625, API 650, and API 620, which govern large, welded, low-pressure storage tanks including LNG tanks, this course delves into the intricacies of tank design and construction without endorsing specific manufacturers or equipment. Instead, it aims to familiarize participants with the diverse array of tanks available internationally.

Participants will gain a thorough understanding of:

The basic design and construction of LNG storage tanks, including materials and equipment specifications
The process of transferring liquid gas to LNG tanks from ships and subsequent re-gasification
