Lower BOR Means Lower Carbon Emissions—VacuEco VPU Supports Greener LNG Terminal Operations

Reducing Heat Ingress Is the Most Direct Route to Energy Savings

Before we begin, here is a quick introduction for readers unfamiliar with the term.

VPU (Vacuum Insulation Panel / Polyurethane Composite Module), or a metal-envelope vacuum insulation panel–polyurethane composite module [“VIP + PIR/PU Composite Insulation Panel”], is a new LNG tank insulation material developed by VacuEco, a Super Tech company.

The idea is straightforward: vacuum insulation removes nearly all gas from the material, greatly limiting heat transfer. The composite has a thermal conductivity of about 1.2mW/m·K (0.0012W/m·K), delivering roughly 25 times the insulation performance of conventional perlite.

Put simply, VPU gives an LNG tank a high-performance thermal jacket.

An LNG Tank Is a Long-Term Asset, Not Short-Term Equipment

A large onshore LNG tank often remains in service for decades, from design and construction through operation. What matters is whether it remains stable, reliable, and effective throughout long-term service. If insulation performance deteriorates, BOR may rise, BOG may increase, energy consumption may grow, and tank operating strategies may be affected. LNG tank cold i...
