Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	The present invention relates to a method and system for heating LNG before the LNG enters the storage tank onboard a ship or other gas consumer vessel. The invention provides a solution for pressure control in storage tanks of LNG or other cryogenic fluids, which maintains stable pressure during gas consumption from the storage tank without the use of pressure build-up unit or LNG pump downstream of the LNG storage tank during gas supply to the engine.
