CONCRETE DUE TEST AS BARRIER IN MARINE LNG SERVICE

A two-year test program for use of prestressed concrete in marine LNG-storage systems is described. The program will attempt to show suitably of prestressed concrete as a secondary barrier in marine cryogenic systems for reducing maintenance costs, insulation requirements, and improving safety if an accident or spill occurs. Design, mooring system and operating conditions of the LNG floating facility are detailed.
