The invention discloses a bimetallic cryogenic membrane storage compartment for liquefied natural gas (LNG) storage. The invention is based on the design of bimetallic membrane panels and two insulating panels to achieve two completely independent insulation spaces, fully meeting the relevant requirements of the amendments to the International Code for the Construction and Equipment of Ships Carrying Liquefied Natural Gas in Bulk (“IGC CODE”) adopted on May 22, 2014. The invention improves the safety of the cryogenic membrane storage compartment, reduces the limitation of free liquid level loading of liquid cargo in the cargo compartment, reduces the application and time consuming of low-temperature resistant glue in the construction process, and adopts the more mature and safe design method of welding bimetallic membrane panels and the environmental protection method of prefabricated foam insulation panels, thus reducing the construction workload, shortening the construction cycle and improving the safety of the equipment.

A cryogenic storage vessel having an inner vessel defining a cryogen space; an outer vessel spaced apart from and surrounding the inner vessel, defining a thermally insulating space between the inner vessel and the outer vessel; and a receptacle defining passages for delivery of liquefied gas from the cryogen space to outside the cryogenic storage vessel. The receptacle has an elongated outer sleeve defining an interior space in fluid communication with the thermally insulating space that is sealed from the cryogen space; an elongated inner sleeve extending into the interior space defined by the elongated outer sleeve defining an inner receptacle space that is fluidly isolated from the thermally insulating space; and a collar extending around an inner surface of the elongated inner sleeve which seals against a cooperating surface of a pump assembly when a pump assembly is installed in the cryogenic storage vessel thereby dividing a warm end from a cold end of the receptacle. A motor for driving the pump can be installed within the cryogenic storage vessel.

The present disclosure provides a storage system comprising a storage tank configured to store fuel at a cryogenic temperature for a predetermined amount of time. The storage tank may have a plurality of layers comprising: a first layer comprising a pressure vessel for containing the fuel at a pressurized state; a second layer comprising insulation for the first layer; a third layer comprising a vapor barrier; and a fourth layer comprising a shell configured to maintain a rigidity of the storage tank.

A heat insulation structure for corner parts of a liquefied natural gas (LNG) storage tank includes a secondary insulation wall arranged on an inner wall of a hull, a secondary sealing wall disposed on the secondary insulation wall, a primary insulation wall arranged on the secondary sealing wall, and a primary sealing wall disposed on the primary insulation wall. The heat insulation structure includes a corner assembly finishing an edge of the primary sealing wall at a corner part of the storage tank to complete sealing of the storage tank. The corner assembly includes an endcap sheet finishing each of four corners of the primary sealing wall provided to each surface of the storage tank to seal the four corners. The endcap sheet includes an endcap corrugation and an elongated corrugation extending in a direction perpendicular to a direction in which the endcap corrugation extends.

An insulating wall fixing device for liquefied natural gas storage tanks includes: a base socket; and a securing stud inserted into the base socket. The base socket is formed on an upper surface thereof with an insertion hole through which the securing stud is inserted into the base socket and has an interior space in which one end of the securing stud is settled. The securing stud includes an insertion portion inserted into the interior space of the base socket through the insertion hole and a fastening portion protruding from the insertion portion outwardly of the base socket. The insertion portion includes a spherical shape and multiple leg members divided by a groove formed from one end of the insertion portion to the other end of the insertion portion. The multiple leg members of the insertion portion are retracted toward the groove.

In one aspect the present disclosure relates to a method of manufacturing a cryogenic pressure vessel. The method may include providing a metal lined, composite wrapped vessel which has a boss. The method may further include securing an inlet to the boss, and then encapsulating the metal lined, composite wrapped vessel within a metallic layer in a vacuum controlled environment to form an encapsulated inner tank subassembly. The method may further include securing at least one support to an exterior of the encapsulated inner tank subassembly, and within the controlled vacuum environment, applying a metal coating over the encapsulated inner tank subassembly and the at least one support to form a metal coated, encapsulated inner tank subassembly. The method may further include, within the controlled vacuum environment, encapsulating the metal coated, encapsulated inner tank subassembly within a metallic vacuum jacket, which forms the cryogenic pressure vessel.
