foundation of liquefied gas storage facility in the process of land and construction of a storage facility on land

摘要

A storage plant with a spherical storage tank for liquefied gas, for installation on land. The spherical storage tank is supported by a skirt inside a surrounding concrete silo. An advantageous way of producing the storage plant is that the concrete silo or a buoyant lower portion thereof is produced in a fitting-out dock together with the spherical tank and thereafter floated to a location in the vicinity of the installation site on land, after which the structure is brought on land by utilizing the lock system principle.
