Reducing risks in LNG storage

For many years, Svanehøj Tank Control Systems has developed cutting-edge technologies that enhance the safety of LNG, cryogenic and refrigerated storage. Both onshore and offshore. Actually, Svanehøj Tank Control Systems was the first to provide a level, temperature and density (LTD) gauge for floating storage.

Svanehøj Tank Control Systems is an integral part of Svanehoj Group since 2021. It was established in Calais, France in 1961 as Whessoe plc. and has equipped gas carriers since the 1970s and its first liquefied natural gas (LNG) storage tank in 1983.

At Svanehøj, we are global leading specialists in handling mission-critical liquids – both on sea and land. We design, manufacture, and supply a wide range of cargo and energy pump solutions and applications that accelerates the transition to cleaner energy types.

Always monitor your LNG storage

Liquefied natural gas terminals need to both handle and store multiple grades of LNG, and boil-off means, the chemical composition of any stored LNG is in constant flux. Therefore, it is vital to monitor the possible development of stratification, and to be warned of any unstable stratifications that might occur.

instruments to prevent rollover

It is vital that LNG tanks have precise instruments that measure variations in temperature, density and levels. Incoming LNG can be of widely varying quality, and there is always the key risk of stratification of the LNG, which can evolve into ‘rollover’ with severe consequences.

Land-based tanks that store liquefied natural gas are an expensive investment, and it is essential that they remain fail-proof.

Customised safety systems and equipment

Tanks for storing LNG can be flat-bottom (single, double or full containment). Svanehøj Tank Control Systems can provide you with instrumentation and safety systems for all types and sizes of tanks, customised to meet your specific needs whilst complying with very stringent regulations.

This includes instruments that operate accurately under cryogenic conditions.
