10ft Cryogenic ISO Tank Container for LNG (Liquefied Natural Gas)
The 10ft Cryogenic ISO Tank Container for LNG is a compact, high-performance intermodal pressure vessel engineered for the safe transport, offshore delivery, and site storage of Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) at extreme cryogenic temperatures down to -162°C (-260°F). Built within a standard 10-foot ISO container frame, this unit is ideal for applications where space is limited or where smaller volume transport is required for remote industrial sites, marine bunkering, or energy distribution networks.
Constructed with an austenite stainless steel inner pressure vessel and a durable carbon steel outer jacket, the tank utilizes advanced High Vacuum Multi-Layer Insulation (MLI) to minimize boil-off rates (BOR) and ensure extended thermal hold times. The container frame is designed for seamless intermodal transport via road, rail, or sea, conforming to international shipping regulations including ISO, UN T75, ADR/RID, IMDG, and ASME Section VIII. A secure rear valve cabinet houses all fill/discharge valves, safety relief valves, pressure gauges, and liquid level indicators for easy operational control and maximum safety.
Key Features & Technical Specifications
1. Advanced Cryogenic Insulation & Safety Features
Vacuum Thermal Insulation: Multi-layer insulation (MLI) under high vacuum pressure ensures minimal thermal bridge losses and extremely low Boil-Off Rates (BOR).
Dual Pressure Relief System: Equipped with dual primary safety valves and bursting discs routed through a top-vent stack for maximum operational safety during transit and storage.
Ergonomic Valve Cabinet: Locked stainless steel cabinet with quick-connect couplings, pressure build-up vaporizer (PBU), pressure gauges, and differential liquid level transmitter.
2. Standard Intermodal Frame Construction
Compact Footprint: 10-foot ISO frame dimensions fit standard twist-lock transport trailers, offshore supply vessels, and tight facility yards.
Heavy-Duty Structural Frame: High-tensile steel corner castings and structural frame rated for full stack loads and rugged off-road transport.
