Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2018206511A1] The invention relates to a device (10, 110, 210) for supplying fluid fuel to a facility (12) for generating power, in particular installed on-board a ship (14), characterised in that it comprises a main tank (16) of liquefied gas, at least one first buffer tank (18) of liquefied gas, a first pipe (32) for transferring liquefied gas from the first buffer tank (18) to said facility (12), a first end (32a) of which opens into said first buffer tank (18) and a second end (32b) of which is connected to said facility (12), in order to supply fluid fuel to said facility, a second pipe (22) for transferring liquefied gas from the main tank (16) to the first buffer tank (18), said second pipe (22) comprising a first end (22a) intended for being submerged into the liquefied gas (24) contained in said main tank (16), and a second end (22b) leading into said first buffer tank (18), in order to supply liquefied gas to said first buffer tank, and means (20, 36) for applying negative pressure to said first buffer tank (18) relative to said main tank (16), which comprise at least one compressor (20) configured to apply an operating pressure lower than the atmospheric pressure to said first buffer tank.
