Ships of the trimaran type for transporting cryogenic liquids in two spheres, and processes for constructing ships with a capacity of 28,500 to 620,000 m<3>

摘要

Trimaran ships for transporting cryogenic liquids in two spheres 1, placed on the central hull 4, between two lateral hulls 6 which increase the stability of the ship sailing in the open seas. In the case of liquid methane of a low density of 0.42, this arrangement has advantages and the reduction in the number of tanks to two contributes to reducing the cost of the construction of methane-carrying ships. <IMAGE>
