Chart Ferox is at it again! The world´s largest LNG tank

NGVA Europe member Chart Ferox built the world´s biggest cryogenic tank with a holding capacity of 1 million litres of LNG. Chart Ferox announced "It was not long ago that Chart Ferox announced the then largest vacuum insulated storage tank anywhere: the awesome HT683/8. With its gross capacity of nearly 700.000 liters, it sported a diameter of 5,6 meters, a length of nearly 37 meters and weighed in at more than 160 tons. Since then, 17 of these giant tanks have been delivered to customers in Norway and Finland. They serve in LNG applications such as production plant storage, ship refueling and satellites for gaseous supply.

Recently, Chart Ferox was ready to upstage itself, this time with an even larger tank.  At this writing, two units of the brand-new HT1000 are nearing completion. They will become part of a new LNG storage depot being built for Skangass for Nordic LNG near Fredrikstad, Norway. These tanks boast a diameter of nearly 6 meters, length of 48 meters, 8 bar g working pressure and weight of 212 tons. To our knowledge, these giants are the largest shop built vacuum insulated tanks in the world!

Where will it all end?"
