Seismic analysis of LNG tanks

Interaction with the liquid and with the ground

Principia has ample experience in the civil design of storage tanks for liquefied natural gas (LNG) and has carried out the seismic studies for over 50 tanks worldwide.

Among the calculations required there are dynamic analyses of the tank subjected to the various design seismic motions (OBE, SSE and ALE), with their corresponding requirements: strength capacity, stability, integrity, containment, freeboard, etc.
