A method of supplying vaporized gas from a storage tank storing the gas in liquified form in a lower liquid region and having a vapor region thereover, the method including employing an external source of heat to heat a heat exchange liquid to no more than about 35° C., bringing the heat exchange liquid into heat exchange relation with at least a portion of the liquified gas so as to transfer heat from the external source of heat to the liquified gas, and supplying vaporized gas to the consumer, according to the consumer demand, directly from the vapor region of the storage tank. The heat exchange relation is controlled such that the at least portion of the liquified gas which is heated remains mostly in a liquified state but that the temperature of the liquified gas is prevented from falling below a predefined minimum operational temperature. |
