Zusammenfassung:PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a boil-off gas reliquefying method permitting efficient elimination of nitrogen which is impurities, while suppressing the discharge of useful substance such as methane. SOLUTION: In this boil-off gas reliquefying method, boil-off gas generated from a liquefied gas storage tank 1 is liquefied by a compressor 2 and a cooler 3 and once led to a gas-liquid separating drum 6, and only the liquid obtained in the gas-liquid separating drum 6 is returned to the storage tank 1. In this case, the liquid obtained in the gas-liquid separating drum 6 is returned to a mist separating drum 5 provided upstream of the compressor 2, and returned to the storage tank 1 after nitrogen contained in the liquid is flashed in the boil-off gas by decompression.
