Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to a liquefied gas storage tank and a marine structure including the same. The storage tank includes a plurality of liquefied gas storage tanks received in a plurality of spaces defined in a hull of the marine structure by a cofferdam and arranged in two rows. The cofferdam includes at least one longitudinal cofferdam extending in a longitudinal direction of the hull and at least one transverse cofferdam extending in a transverse direction of the hull. Each of the storage tanks is sealed and thermally insulated by a sealing wall and a thermal insulation wall extending without being disconnected. The longitudinal cofferdam supports load of an upper structure while suppressing a sloshing phenomenon.

Abstract:
Disclosed herein is a semi-submersible offshore structure having storage tanks for liquefied gas, which is constructed so as to improve workability in marine offloading of the liquefied gas stored in the storage tanks while reducing an influence of sloshing. The offshore structure is anchored at sea and has liquefied gas. The offshore structure includes a storage tank storing liquefied gas, a plurality of columns partially submerged under the sea level and each having the storage tank therein, and an upper deck located on the plurality of columns to connect the columns to each other.
