6 FAQs about [Lng storage tanks Luxembourg]
Where is LNG stored?
For local LNG peaking storage, often called peak shaving facilities, LNG is stored in tanks connected to gas transmission or distribution facilities on a pipeline or utility distribution system. For use as a fuel for trucking, locomotives, or shipping, LNG is stored in tanks at a fuel facility. Storage at import/export terminals
How is LNG stored in a cryogenic tank?
LNG is stored in cryogenic tanks designed to keep the LNG below the vaporization temperature. The job of the tank is to contain the gas and to insulate it from warming due to heat from the surrounding air. Storage is most common in four points in the gas delivery system:
What types of LNG storage tanks does Transtech energy offer?

How does LNG storage work?
In LNG storage the pressure and temperature within the tank will continue to rise. LNG is a cryogen, and is kept in its liquid state at very low temperatures. The temperature within the tank will remain constant if the pressure is kept constant by allowing the boil off gas to escape from the tank. This is known as auto-refrigeration.
