LNG liquid gas reservoirs Cameron

LNG liquid gas reservoirs, Cameron, USA - In the US state of Louisiana, three enormous liquid gas tanks were simultaneously realized using PERI know-how. Each of the structures has an 80 m diameter and a wall height of 44 m.
LNG liquid gas reservoirs, Cameron, USA - In concreting cycle heights of 4.65 m, the customized pre-assembled VARIO GT 24 girder wall formwork and CB climbing scaffold system were moved by crane in the form of climbing units.
LNG liquid gas reservoirs, Cameron, USA - The PERI formwork solution took into consideration the external inclination in the bottom third of the wall as well as wall thickness offsets in the area of the buttresses.
