Recently in-tank (submerged) pumps and pump columns are provided with not only full
containment tanks but also single containment tanks instead of wall and bottom connections
and penetrations as shown below, since the leakage of LNG to the atmosphere can be
minimized by avoiding all connections and penetrations on the tank below the maximum LNG

11. ROLLOVER PROTECTION (1/4)
1. What is Rollover?
Since the LNG stored in the refrigerated tank is naturally mixed by the convection at
top surface due to the boiling off
of LNG as shown in the following fig., the rollover will not occur unless receiving LNG
having different density into
same tank especially receiving heavier density of LNG into bottom level of the tank or
leaving the stored LNG long time.
VAPORIZING LIGHT PARTS
LNG VAPOR LNG VAPOR
OF LNG
LNG
(1) Light parts of LNG at upper layer will boil off due to heat transfer from the lower
layer to upper layer of LNG
(2) Density of upper layer will be heavier gradually due to the vaporization of light parts

(3) In case that the density of upper LNG layer become equal to or more that that of
lower layer, the boiling off
of LNG stored at lower layer will occur due to the rollover suddenly

1. General 12. BASIC DESIGN CONCEPT OF PC (PRE-STRESSED
The concept of LNG storage tank for Full Containment Type is that the outer tank is
intended to be capable both of CONCRETE) (1/2)
containing LNG and controlled venting of the vapor resulting from product leakage after
a credible event. The pre-stressed
concrete outer tank wall instead of the RC (Reinforced Concrete) outer tank wall with
the earth embankment is introduced
in 1990th to minimize tank area and construction cost.
The Pre-Stressing Concrete is common design technology and generally used for
construction of superstructures such as
bridges, etc.
2. Concept of Pre-stressing

3. Design Concept of Pre-stressed Concrete Outer Tank Wall
(1) Permeation 12.ofBASIC
LNG Vapor
DESIGN CONCEPT OF PC (PRE-STRESSED
For the above corner protection, the carbon steel liner is used to provide and
impervious barrier against permeation CONCRETE)
by (2/2)
LNG vapor at the normal operation condition. Since the carbon steel liner is not
intended to contain LNG leakage from
the inner tank, in principle, the PC outer wall shall be designed considering that the
width of a crack on PC wall shall
not be more than 0.2 mm in case of LNG leakage.
Because of ice formation in pores the permeability is reduced at minimum design
temperature of LNG as compared
to normal temperature and it is planned to utilize this self-blocking effect.
(2) Residual Compressive Stress
In addition to the aforesaid allowable crack width on the PC outer wall, the residual
compressive stress zone shall be
15% of wall thickness, but not less than 80mm in case of LNG leakage as shown in the
following fig. T: THICKNESS OF PC OUTER
