Abstract
Disclosed is an apparatus for containing LNG. The apparatus includes an LNG tank containing liquid phase LNG and boil-off gas of LNG, and an circulating device. The circulating device includes an intake port and a discharge port. The circulating device further includes an flowing pathway from the intake port to the discharge port that does not include a forced LNG liquefying device. The intake port is located in an upper portion of the LNG tank, and the discharge port is located in a lower portion of the LNG tank substantially lower than the intake port. The circulating device is configured to suction, through the intake port, boil-off gas from the upper portion of the LNG tank and to discharge boil-off gas, through the discharge port, to the lower portion of the LNG tank.
