APPARATUS FOR CONNECTING LIQUEFIED GAS STORAGE TANKS AND FLOATING MARINE STRUCTURE HAVING THE APPARATUS

摘要

PURPOSE: A floating marine structure and a connection device thereof are provided to communicate liquefied gas stored within each storage tank by connecting storage tanks, which are arranged in two rows around a longitudinal directional coffer dam, to each other towards a width direction. CONSTITUTION: A connection device(10) of a liquefied gas storage tank(20) guides the liquefied gas which is stored in a one storage tank to flow a different storage tank by being installed inside a floating marine structure. The connection device is arranged inside the traverse directional coffer dam. Storage tanks which are adjacent towards a traverse direction are connected through the connection device. The connection device comprises a pipe(12) and at least one valve(13). The pipe interlinks openings(11) which are formed in two storage tanks inside the body of a ship of the floating marine structure. The valve opens and closes the pipe.
