Summary

LNG TANKS ARE GENERALLY JACKETED, THE INNER WALL OF NICKEL-STEEL OR PRESTRESSED CONCRETE, THE OUTER ONE OF REINFORCED OR PRESTRESSED CONCRETE SERVING AS A SECOND BARRIER AGAINST GAS LEAKAGE. THE JACKET SPACE IS INSULATED. FOR SAFETY REASONS PRESTRESSED CONCRETE BECOMES MORE USUAL FOR BOTH WALLS. IN NORMAL SERVICE, THE OUTER WALL IS WARM AND BECOMES EXPOSED TO THERMAL SHOCK ONLY IN THE EVENT OF GAS LEAKAGE. THE INNER WALL IS PERMANENTLY AT LOW TEMPERATURE.
