Why Floating Storage Units (FSUs) are increasingly viable alternatives to onshore tanks


How to ensure the LNG send-out from a Floating Storage Unit with minimum infrastructure?

Trelleborg recommends the use of a Floating Storage Unit (FSU), which it says are increasingly considered “a great alternative” to the construction of onshore tanks, “bringing a cost-effective LNG storage capacity, which is rapidly available”.

It said the need for infrastructure can be reduced by using a floating hose to ensure the continuous LNG send-out, with a spread-moored FSU.

Trelleborg said: “The Cryoline LNG hose, thermally insulated, well protected by its robust external envelope, and fitted with its DTS temperature monitoring system, is perfectly suited for this continuous operation.”
