LNG & LPG Carriers - Cryogenic Tank Insulation
LNG LPG Cryogenic Tank Insulation
Lignostone® cryogenic - LNG and LPG cryogenic tank insulation
With Lignostone® cryogenic we offer you a unique material manufactured from selected beech veneers, impregnated under vacuum with thermosetting synthetic resin and densified under heat and pressure. The extraordinary properties of Lignostone® cryogenic make it the ideal material for cryogenic tank insulation in LNG and LPG carriers:
- low thermal conductivity
- excellent temperature resistance
- withstands high mechanical loading
- resistance to abrasion and wear
- low coefficient of sliding friction
- good electrical insulation
- low specific weight
Applications
Lignostone® cryogenic laminated densified wood is widely used for cryogenic tank insulation as:
- tank supports
- anti-floating chocks
- anti-pitching chocks
- anti-rolling chocks
- fixed blocks
- sliding blocks
- hardwood keys
in
- prismatic tanks LNG (e.g. 87 500 cbm)
- prismatic tanks LPG (e.g. 78 000 cbm)
- cylindrical tanks LPG (bi-lobe)
- floating storage tanks LNG
- Ethylene carriers
