| (57) A fixed tank (1) for the storage of liquefied petroleum gas designed for an underground
or surface installation outdoors is described. The tank (1) includes a tank casing
(5) made of welded steel which defines an internal storage space which can receive
liquefied petroleum gas. The fixed tank (1) includes a supply valve (20), a safety
valve (21) and a filling valve, said valves being provided in order to establish a
fluidic communication between the internal and external space, the safety valve (21)
being adapted to reduce the pressure of the liquefied petroleum gas when said pressure
exceeds a pre-set threshold value. The internal space has a storage capacity of between
200 litres and 450 litres including the ends.
