Storage Tank Design – Gorgon LNG Project

Scope

Detailed design and calculations for 16 new storage tanks. The tanks had to be fabricated at the docks in Perth, Australia and transferred onto a low loader which was then taken by barge around the coast and across to Barrow Island. This meant that alongside the standard design cases, several additional design cases covering a variety of transport loads were required for all tanks. The scope included the design of all supporting structures and temporary works utilised in the construction and transport operation.
