摘要

A protective container (1) with a fluid-tight seal for the underground installation of a tank (10) containing pressurized liquefied gas. The container (1) comprises a cylindrical peripheral wall (2) which can surround the tank (10) and form a space (17), a base (4) on which the tank (10) rests in the vertical position, and a top (6) for closing the container when the tank (10) has been introduced. The top (6) is provided with a hatch (7) through which access to the connector (13) for charging the tank (10) is provided. The hatch (7) is closed by a cover (8) which can be travelled over and is fire-resistant.
