Embodiments of vessels include personnel access provisions having welded or otherwise permanent connections that substantially reduce the potential for leakage into or out of the vessels by way of the personnel access provisions.

A horizontal type cylindrical double-shell tank includes an inner shell and an outer shell. The inner shell includes an inner shell main part storing a liquefied gas and an inner shell dome protruding from the inner shell main part. The outer shell forms a vacuum space between the inner shell and the outer shell, and includes an outer shell main part surrounding the inner shell main part and an outer shell dome surrounding the inner shell dome. The inner shell dome is provided with an inner shell manhole. The outer shell dome is provided with an outer shell manhole at a position corresponding to a position of the inner shell manhole.

A pressurized closure assembly is provided which has a connector assembly to allow improved application of torque in limited space conditions to rotate a head away from the hub of the closure assembly.

A fluid storage tank according to an embodiment of the present invention comprises: a first outer wall section that forms a front face in the length direction, the width direction and the height direction so as to form a space portion in which a fluid is stored; a plurality of partition plates arranged along the length direction of the first outer wall portion to divide the space portion into the plurality of sub-space portions; and an end portion located between the outermost partition plate of the plurality of partition plates and the first outer wall portion, wherein each of the partition plates is formed with a fluid through hole comprising: a gas through hole located on the top of the partition plate; and a liquid through hole located on the bottom of the partition plate so that fluids between the sub-pace portions are in communication with each other.

Disclosed is an liquid natural gas supply and delivery system with a multimode fuel gas delivery system and process. The tender is capable of supplying gaseous methane fuel to an cryogenic tank via direct pumping, pressure transfer, or any combination mode due to a configuration of pumps, heat exchangers, and piping and controls. There is redundancy in the tender and it can operate with saturated or unsaturated liquid.

A pressurized closure assembly is provided which has a connector assembly to allow improved application of torque in limited space conditions to rotate a head away from the hub of the closure assembly.

A modular tank system includes at least two pressure tanks and a mounting frame. Each of the tanks includes a pressure vessel and a protection frame within which the vessel is arranged, the protection frame is adapted such that multiple tanks may be mounted on top of each other and the vessel includes a vent outlet and an inlet, where the outlet is arranged in an upper half of the vessel, the inlet is arranged in a lower half of the vessel and is fluidly connected to a tank process line, which includes a first fluid connector and a second fluid connector on opposite ends of the tank process line, such that the second connector of a first tank is connectable to the first connector of a second tank, when the second tank is mounted on top of the first tank; and the mounting frame includes a base frame.

A catalytic tank heater includes a removably attached catalytic heater cartridge having catalytic material. The heater is attached to an LPG tank to position the catalytic heater cartridge to face the tank. The catalytic heater cartridge covers a plenum chamber of the catalytic tank heater. A fuel distribution header and heating element are positioned within the plenum chamber and are controlled to initiate combustion of the catalytic material to heat the tank. Vapor from the tank is provided as fuel to the catalytic tank heater, and is regulated to increase heat output as tank pressure drops. The catalytic heater cartridge can be replaced with a new cartridge while at the location of the tank on a property.

A gas tank container having increased volume is disclosed. The gas tank container for storing and/or transporting gas and/or liquid, includes a tank vessel, a frame and at least one outlet valve. The end of the outlet valve is attached to a tank flange, which is sunk in a recess at the end of the tank vessel. By recessing at least one outlet valve of the gas tank container, the length of the tank vessel can be optimized within the frame.

A sealed and thermally insulating tank has a bottom wall and a ceiling wall where at least a first pipe and a second pipe pass through the ceiling wall. The tank is equipped with a support foot that passes through the bottom wall that is fastened to the load-bearing structure with a guide device that is fastened to the support foot. The guide device is configured to guide the first pipe and second pipe in translation in the vertical direction where the guide device has a first collar disposed around the entirety of the first pipe and a second collar is disposed around the entirety of the second pipe. A support plate is fastened to the support foot. A first linking arm links the first collar to the support plate. A second linking arm links the second collar to the support plate.
