Construction of LNG tanks, Qalhat / Oman
Two post-tensioned LNG tanks were constructed directly on the shore line in late 1999.
The tanks reached a dome height of 42 m with an inner diameter of 82 m, resulting in a capacity of 120,000 m3 each.
Installed post-tensioning ducts had to be absolutely water tight in order to comply with stringent project specifications.
The DYWIDAG cryogen multistrand system with plastic ducts met the high corrosion resistance requirements.
