An LNG fueling station according to the present invention includes: an installation part on which an LNG tank container is installed, and a supply part for supplying liquefied natural gas from the LNG tank container installed on the installation part to an object for supply, wherein the LNG tank container can be transported and installed while storing the liquefied natural gas, and the LNG tank container is transported to the installation part and then installed on the installation part.

A set (10) for dispensing liquefied gas from a vessel (100) comprises a supporting structure (1), a pump (2) and a conditioning system (4). The supporting structure is designed for maintaining both the pump and the conditioning system inside the vessel when the set is in operation condition for dispensing a flow of liquefied gas. The set allows easy handling, simple fitting to the vessel and easy removal from the vessel because a main part of said set can be handled as a one-block element.

A gas supply marine vessel and a refueling facility are described. The gas supply marine vessel includes a hull with an upper deck having an elongated cargo cavity formed therein. Gas interface modules are disposed in the cavity and extend between hull sides, each module having a plurality of fuel vessel docking stations. A plurality of stacked fuel container assemblies are fluidically coupled to the docking stations, A gantry, is movable along the length of the cavity, straddles the cargo cavity between hull sides. An articulating crane is mounted on the gantry and it utilized to move fuel container assemblies to a fuel container depression formed in the deck of a floating refueling facility. The floating refueling facility includes a concave side to facilitate mooring adjacent a shoreline, the concave side forming angled extensions at corners of the deck with a linkspan extending from each of the angled extensions.

Systems and methods are provided for a combined defuel and priority panel for a fueling station. The defuel and priority panel is configured to defuel a compressed natural gas (CNG) vehicle and direct the defueled gas to fuel other CNG vehicles at the panel fueling and defueling site. The defuel and priority panel is also configured to store defueled gas in defuel storage tanks, which can then be used to later fuel CNG vehicles.

Various embodiments provide an end-to-end gaseous fuel transportation solution without using physical pipelines. A virtual pipeline system and methods thereof may involve transportation of gaseous fuels including compressed natural gas (CNG), liquefied natural gas (LNG), and/or adsorbed natural gas (ANG). An exemplary pipeline system may include a gas supply station, a mother station for treating gaseous fuels from the gas supply station, a mobile transport system for receiving and transporting the gaseous fuels, and user site for unloading the gaseous fuels from the mobile transport system. The unloaded gaseous fuels can be further used or distributed.

A fuel supply device includes a fuel tank having an internal space configured to store fuel, a tube member having a flow path therein and having one side connected to the fuel tank and the other side connectable to an external component, and an opening/closing control unit coupled to the tube member and configured to control an operation of opening or closing the flow path of the tube member. The opening/closing control unit is configured to close the flow path of the tube member based on a rate (dP/dt) of pressure change over time of the fluid being greater than or equal to a predetermined value.

A gas supply system (2) includes a compressor unit (21), an accumulator unit (23), a pre-cooling system (24) and a housing (4). In the gas supply system (2), the compressor unit (21) is vertically arranged and the pre-cooling system (24) is arranged above the accumulator unit (23) in the housing (4). The compressor unit (21) and the accumulator unit (23) are covered by one rectangular parallelepiped housing (4).

A system is provided for loading one or more transport tank, the system including one or more load lines for connecting between on-site storage tanks or vessels and the transport tanks; one or more vapour return lines for connecting between the transport tanks and an on-site flare or downstream units; an oxygen deficient medium source; one or more oxygen deficient medium blend supply lines connectable to each of the vapour return lines; a HMI/PLC for automation and control of the operations of the system; and a control panel in communication with the HMI/PLC for starting and stopping operation of the system. Gases displaced from the transport tanks during loading can be sent directly to flare or downstream units. A method is also provided for loading a fluid from one or more on-site storage tanks or vessels to one or more transportation tanks.

Some embodiments include an energy source supply appliance. The appliance energy source supply system can comprise an appliance energy source supply subsystem, and the appliance energy source supply subsystem can comprise a pressure regulator, a first thermal control device, and a second thermal control device. The appliance energy source supply subsystem can be configured to receive a hydrogen fuel energy source and to make available the hydrogen fuel energy source to a receiver vehicle, and the receiver vehicle can comprise a drive system configured to use the hydrogen fuel energy source received by the receiver vehicle to motively power the receiver vehicle. Other embodiments of related systems, devices, and methods also are provided.
