Grain LNG

Grain LNG is described on its official website as Europe's largest liquefied natural gas terminal and the UK's leading gateway connecting global LNG to the European energy market. The terminal is stated to have 1,200,000 m3 of tank space, 25 mtpa capacity (equivalent to 33% of UK gas demand), 2 cryogenic lines and 2 jetties (QMax capable), with simultaneous berthing capabilities. It is described as an independent terminal operator with over 30 years' experience in the LNG industry, a site spanning over 600 acres, and strategic national importance to UK energy infrastructure and security of supply.

Grain LNG describes itself as having over 30 years' experience in the LNG industry. The official website states that the terminal's tanks are each larger than the Royal Albert Hall and have four times the capacity of each of the original LNG storage tanks at Grain, quadrupling the LNG handling capacity at the site. Each tank is described as having a diameter of 92.4m and a height of 50m, constructed on piles 600mm in diameter with 1,560 piles per tank to a depth of 24m to support a concrete mass of 72,000 tonnes per tank. During this construction activity, National Grid and contractors CB&I are said to have celebrated two major safety milestones, each with one million man-hours worked with no lost-time injury.
