Some new LNG tanks have capacities of which range?

• A. 30,000,000 to 60,000,000 gallons
• B. 300 to 400,000 gallons
• C. 0.5 to 15 psi
• D. 5 gallons

Answer: (A)

LNG tanks are designed to hold very large volumes at cryogenic temperatures, so their capacities are in the tens of millions of gallons. A typical LNG carrier or storage system carries around 125,000 cubic meters of LNG, which converts to about 33 million gallons; even at higher cargo capacities, you’re looking at roughly 40–50 million gallons. That fits squarely in the 30,000,000 to 60,000,000 gallon range. The other options don’t describe volume: a few hundred thousand gallons is far too small for LNG storage, a low-pressure number describes pressure rather than capacity, and just 5 gallons is obviously negligible.
