Zusammenfassung:An exemplary tank arrangement for storing liquefied natural gas includes a multilobe tank having at least three tank sections arranged in a row in a lateral direction, wherein each tank section is supported against a support surface with a first support allowing movement of the tank relative to the support surface in the longitudinal direction and with a second support, at least one of the second supports preventing movement of the tank relative to the support surface in the longitudinal direction. One tank section has a third support, which allows movement of the tank relative to the support surface in the longitudinal direction and prevents movement in the lateral direction. The first and second supports allow shrinkage and expansion of the tank in the lateral direction.
