Abstract

A method and apparatus for transporting a liquid gas container is described herein. The liquid gas container is transported at an increased internal pressure. Transporting the liquid gas container at an increased internal pressure distributes the downward load of the liquid gas container, such that the downward load of the liquid gas container is distributed more evenly or so that a greater amount of the downward load is felt in the center of the liquid gas container compared to the outer portion of the liquid gas container. This enables transport without cracking of a base support slab during transit when the support slab is only able to be supported from the center due to narrow road conditions.
