Problems solved by technology

[0004] However, in the liquefied gas transport ship disclosed in the above-mentioned Patent Document 1, it is necessary to ensure the longitudinal strength of the ship required by the rules of the classification association and the like (relative to the fore and aft (longitudinal) direction, The strength of the goods, the bending force and the shearing force generated by the wave force)
Therefore, there is a problem that the width of the hull inevitably increases, the resistance of the hull and the weight of the hull increase, and sailing performance cannot be improved as expected.

Abstract

This aims to provide a liquefied-gas carrying vessel capable of reducing the width of a hull and reducing a hull resistance and a hull weight, thereby to improve a navigation performance. The liquefied-gas carrying vessel (1) comprises a plurality of spherical tanks (2) stored therein with a liquefied gas, arranged along a bow-stern direction and fixed in a hull (5) through a skirt, and one continuous tank cover (7) covering the upper halves of the spherical tanks (2) and extending along the bow-stern direction and the beam direction. The tank cover (7) is constituted such that it is rigidly jointed to the hull (5), thereby to retain the longitudinal strength integrally with the hull (5).

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a liquefied gas carrier, in particular to an LNG carrier which transports liquefied natural gas (LNG) stored at low temperature in a Moss type spherical tank. Background technique [0002] As a liquefied gas transport ship that stores and transports liquefied natural gas (LNG) at a low temperature in a Moss system spherical tank, for example, a liquefied gas transport ship disclosed in Patent Document 1 is known. [0003] Patent Document 1: Japanese Patent Application Publication No. 5-49519. [0004] However, in the liquefied gas transport ship disclosed in the above-mentioned Patent Document 1, it is necessary to ensure the longitudinal strength of the ship required by the rules of the classification association and the like (relative to the fore and aft (longitudinal) direction, cargo, the bending force and shearing force generated by the wave force). Therefore, there is a problem that the width of the hull inevita...
