Abstract: A cryogen storage vessel at an installation is filled with liquid cryogen from a liquid cryogen storage tank that has a pressure lower than that of the vessel. After headspaces of the vessel and tank are placed in fluid communication with another via a gas transfer vessel and are pressure-balanced, a pump in a liquid transfer line connected between the tank and the vessel is operated to transfer amounts of liquid cryogen from the tank to the vessel via the liquid transfer line and pump as amounts of gaseous cryogen are transferred, through displacement by the pumped cryogenic liquid, from the vessel to the tank.

Abstract: A multi-cryostorage system that includes at least two cryocontainers for storing hydrogen. The at least two cryocontainers are connected in hydraulic communication via a cryogenic connecting line, and include a primary storage system having a primary inner tank and a primary outer container, and at least one secondary storage system having a secondary inner tank and a secondary outer container. A heat exchanger is operable to heat the hydrogen, and at least one cryopump is arranged in the primary inner tank to supply unpressurised liquid hydrogen and/or unpressurised gaseous hydrogen in one or more stages at low temperature, to the heat exchanger for delivery to a consumer at a pressure higher than the pressure in the primary inner tank.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a system for storing gas at almost constant pressure, which involves the injection and withdrawal of a liquid in a process known as hydraulic compensation. This disclosure teaches a way to minimize that dissolution by ensuring that, as the gas containment is charged up, the hydraulic compensation liquid emerges from the containment at the gas storage pressure and the pressure of that liquid is caused to fall in a number of discrete steps with settling volumes present at the nodes between these steps. These settling volumes enable some gas to come out of solution at each node having lost relatively small amounts of pressure. The gas is compressed back up to storage pressure and re-injected into the main storage containment without significant use of energy.
