LNG CARRIER

摘要

PURPOSE: An LNG carrier is provided to reduce manufacturing costs by installing first and second pipes connected to a re-liquefaction device only in a first storage unit which has a lot of evaporative gas. CONSTITUTION: AN LNG carrier comprises a re-liquefaction device(10), a first storage unit(20), and a second storage unit(30). The re-liquefaction device cools and re-liquefies evaporative gas. The first storage unit is connected to the re-liquefaction device and stores LNG. The first storage unit comprises first and second pipes(40,42). The first pipe constitutes a first duct for moving evaporative gas from the first storage unit to the re-liquefaction device. The second pipe constitutes a second duct for moving LNG from the re-liquefaction device to the first storage unit. The second storage unit is connected to the first storage unit and stores LNG.
