Description
Chart Vertical LNG Storage Tank – 15,000 Gallon 175 PSI – Vacuum 7.7 mtor - ASME/NFPA 52 Ready to go
This 2011 Chart Industries vertical LNG storage tank offers 15,000-gallon net liquid capacity with ASME Section VIII Div. 1 certification and is engineered for ultra-low-temperature service down to –320°F. The vessel features an SA240 304 stainless steel inner tank and carbon steel outer jacket with multi-layer vacuum insulation, rated for 175 PSI MAWP. Fully compliant with NFPA 52 and California Title 3 LNG container requirements, the tank was removed from a properly maintained and fully functional LNG site in 2026 with no damage and current vacuum reading of 7.7 mtor.
The tank is fully compliant with ASME Section VIII Div. 1, NFPA 52, and California Title 3 LNG container requirements. Its vacuum-insulated, multi-layer thermal system minimizes boil-off and supports stable LNG performance in fueling, storage, and process environments.

Questions buyers ask
What is the current vacuum reading, and what is the NER?
The current vacuum reading is 7.7 mtorr. The listing does not provide an NER (Normal Evaporation Rate) value—ask the seller for recent boil-off data if you need to verify insulation performance or estimate daily losses for your application.
What product has it held, and what can it be converted to?
This tank held LNG and is nameplate-rated for LNG service. Cryogenic tanks are typically dedicated to their original service due to material compatibility, nameplate limitations, and regulatory constraints—conversion to other cryogens like LIN or LOX generally requires engineering review, potential re-rating, and jurisdiction approval that may not be practical or permitted.
Is the data plate legible, and is the U-1A available?
The listing does not confirm data plate condition or U-1A (Form U-1A Manufacturer's Data Report) availability. Ask the seller for photos of the nameplate and a copy of the U-1A—both are typically required for permitting, re-stamping, and jurisdictional acceptance in most states.
What is involved in relocating and re-commissioning it?
Relocation requires vacuum hold verification, proper purging and inerting, specialized rigging for the 50,400 lb tare weight, and transport with vibration protection to preserve insulation integrity. Re-commissioning typically involves foundation work, vacuum system evaluation and potential re-evacuation, hydrostatic or pneumatic testing per ASME and local jurisdiction requirements, pressure relief device recertification, and permits under NFPA 52 and applicable state LNG regulations.
