Abstract

An installation for the storage of a liquified gas under pressure in a pressure chamber. The installation includes a closed pressure resistant chamber to contain the liquid. The container has a wall whose thickness e is determined by computations taking into account parameters associated with a pressure P within the chamber and a temperature T <&minus;50&deg; of the wall of the chamber. The installation further includes a device to indicate a magnitude G of a temperature T of the chamber wall and a device to indicate a magnitude G&prime; representative of the computation temperature T . The installation also includes a device to compare the magnitudes G and G&prime;, and a device to lower the pressure to a value P below the computed pressure P if as a result of the comparison, T is greater than T .
