Title: A New Wrinkle In The Storage Of LNG

Abstract: Like Foucauhs pendulum, mans interests, attitudes and needs oscillate in subhmation within the more primordial cycle. With the stimulus of ecology and pollution control imposed on an already exploded demand for clean energy and with the convergent impetus of a precipilous shortage of fuel, LNG facilities have spawned seemingly like rabbits.. With this proliferation, innovation in both design concept and structural intricacy is expectable. Originality in fundamental concept is not signified by the design presented here, unless the receptacle with a bag liner can be considered a new concept. Texas Eastern has applied this fundamental concept by installing a flexible liner in its 600,000 bbl unit at Staten Island. But engineering philosophy demands a sustained and constant probing for the syllogistic arrangement of design optimum. The essence of engineering seeks to afford the function of maximum complexity with the device of maximum simplicity the engine without moving parts, the black box, all at least real cost. In this present arrangement, a few new wrinkles effectuate cryogenic containment directed, hopefully, to that principle, while a few specific wrinkles provide a defined and predictable pattern of liner flexibility with coincident simplification in construction technique and procedure.
