During the LNG storage tank of goods harbour or FSRV or LNG-RV, do not generate extra shwoot
Gas, it is possible to be applied to existing Unloading Technology in these LNG storage tank.
According to traditional operational approach, the great majority volatilization generated in the LNG storage tank of LNG cargo ship
Fuel as propulsion system is consumed by gas, or by re-liquefied to reduce LNG storage tank
Pressure.But, according to the present invention, because by consuming or re-liquefied to keep LNG cargo ship
The pressure of LNG storage tank, only reduce capacity or part volatilization gas, it is possible to by this
Bright it is applied to traditional LNG cargo ship, to be used as propellant by volatilization gas or there is ship
Upper re-liquefied system.
According to the present invention, because can improve during transport LNG, LNG storage tank pressure is maintained
Limit, so the application of the present invention is not limited to do not have any evaporation gas treating apparatus to operate LNG fortune
The situation of defeated ship, its traditional LNG cargo ship that can also be applied to there is evaporation gas treating apparatus.
