Application of the Anti-Sloshing Blanket to LNG Carriers and FLNG

Apr 3, 2012
Sangeon Chun
Sloshing is long problematic issue on achieving safety and reliability of LNG carriers and FLNG if the liquid level is below at a certain point in the containment system. Sloshing motion can be significantly reduced by covering the free-surface using a patented floater type blanket which is formed...
