PCT No. PCT/FR94/00063 Sec. 371 Date Nov. 29, 1994 Sec. 102(e) Date Nov. 29, 1994 PCT Filed Jan. 18, 1994 PCT Pub. No. WO94/17334 PCT Pub. Date Aug. 4, 1994A reservoir for gaseous fuel in a liquid phase includes an elongate cylindrical wall closed by two transverse end walls, a lower end wall provided with a draw-off orifice and an upper end wall equipped with a draw-off member such as a valve and a pressure reducer, and has an internal volume occupied by an absorbent medium. A chamber is provided above the absorbent medium, between the absorbent medium and the upper end wall of the reservoir. The volume of the chamber is at least equal to the volume of the liquid fuel not absorbed by the absorbent medium after turning the reservoir upside down. The draw-off orifice is equipped with a draw-off tube of fine bore, which is positioned upstream of the pressure reducer and is housed axially in the chamber. The length of the draw-off tube is at least equal to the height of the fuel in the liquid phase that may be in the chamber when the reservoir is in an inverted position.
