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 submersible pumping system in a machine system includes a pumping element, and a drive mechanism for actuating the pumping element. The drive mechanism has an electromagnetic element with a superconducting state at or below a critical temperature. A temperature control jacket and cooling mechanism are provided to pump heat from a heat exchange cavity to cool the drive mechanism to or below a critical temperature less than an ambient temperature in a cryogenic environment.

A portable gas filling system for transfer of cryogenic fluids to high pressure gas cylinders includes a moveable platform, a cryogenic fluid pump for connection to an off platform cryogenic fluid Dewar, and a vaporizer for connection between the fluid pump and gas cylinders. A vacuum pump is provided for purging of interconnecting system lines and a gas accumulator interconnected to the system lines enables storage of gas to pressurize the Dewar.

A system and a method for liquefied fuel storage are provided. The system includes a first module including a first outer vessel wall and a cryotank, a second module including a second outer vessel wall and a submerged pump at partially inside the second outer vessel wall, and a third module including a third outer vessel wall. The first, the second, and the third outer vessel walls are connected to provide an enclosure as an outer vessel.

Described herein are systems and methods for cryogenic fluid delivery to achieve the lowest reasonable saturation pressure while dispensing a cryogenic fluid such as liquefied natural gas to a holding tank on a use device. The systems and methods utilize a liquid nitrogen component and a liquefaction engine, very cold liquefied natural gas and a liquefaction engine, or a combination of both very cold liquefied natural gas and a liquid nitrogen component to deliver LNG to a holding tank on a use device.

Systems and methods for reducing cavitation of a pump in a liquid transfer system including a pump and a liquid storage tank. More particularly, systems and methods for maintaining and adjusting Net Positive Suction Pressure (NPSP) are provided to the pump.

A gas displacement assembly includes a storage container, a pump that pumps a pressurized gas material into the storage container, a cooling chamber that houses a coolant and cools the gas material to a cryogenic temperature, and a coolant line that transports coolant through the cooling chamber to cool the gas material.

A filling station for filling a liquid cryogenic refrigerant from a supply tank to a receiver tank, the filling station comprising a flash tank between the supply tank and the receiver tank, adapted to de-pressurize the refrigerant that is transferred from the flash tank to the receiver tank, resulting in formation of a liquid cryogenic refrigerant phase and a vapour cryogenic refrigerant phase within the flash tank, and to phase separate the liquid and vapour cryogenic refrigerant phase, and a pump between the flash tank and the receiver tank, adapted for pumping the refrigerant out of the flash tank to the receiver tank, wherein the flash tank has a size and the pump has an outflow of refrigerant such that the ratio between the size of the flash tank and the outflow of refrigerant out of the pump is equal to or more than 1.

A filling station for filling a liquid cryogenic refrigerant from a supply tank to a receiver tank, the filling station comprising a flash tank between the supply tank and the receiver tank, adapted to de-pressurize the refrigerant that is transferred from the flash tank to the receiver tank, resulting in formation of a liquid cryogenic refrigerant phase and a vapour cryogenic refrigerant phase within the flash tank, and to phase separate the liquid and vapour cryogenic refrigerant phase, and a pump between the flash tank and the receiver tank, adapted for pumping the refrigerant out of the flash tank to the receiver tank, wherein the flash tank is equipped with a level control unit that is arranged to keep the level of the liquid cryogenic refrigerant phase within the flash tank at a predetermined minimum.

A pump for pumping a cryogenic fluid includes an activation portion that includes at least one actuator. The activation portion contains oil that may be cooled by the cryogenic fluid. The pump further includes a pumping portion that includes at least one pumping element, the at least one pumping element being operated by the at least one actuator, and a heater associated with the activation portion and configured to, when the heater is active, transfer heat energy to the activation portion such that the oil contained in the activation portion is warmed.
