On November 2nd, China's independently developed first 270000 cubic meters of liquefied natural gas storage tank was put into operation in Qingdao, which is also the largest liquefied natural gas storage tank in China. Its operation has greatly improved the natural gas supply guarantee capacity in North China.

The first 270000 cubic meter liquefied natural gas storage tank in China is located in Qingdao, Shandong Province, with a diameter of 100.6 meters and a height of 55 meters. The tank space can accommodate a domestic C919 large passenger aircraft. It is currently the largest, fastest construction speed, and first completed ultra large liquefied natural gas storage tank in China.

With the rapid growth of natural gas consumption in China, the construction of infrastructure such as liquefied natural gas receiving stations is accelerating. Thanks to the improvement of design and construction technology in China, receiving stations are developing towards ultra large capacity. The production of 270000 cubic meters of liquefied natural gas storage tanks has added 165 million cubic meters of gas storage capacity to the Qingdao liquefied natural gas receiving station, which can meet the gas demand of 2.16 million households for five months during the heating season.
