The IGC Code categorizes cargo tanks into five main types; integral tanks,
membrane tanks,
semi-membrane tanks,
independent tanks,
and internal insulation tanks.
In addition, independent tanks include a further three subcategories of tanks referred to as
Type A,
Type B and
Type C,

while internal insulation tanks include two sub-categories of
Type 1 and
Type 2 tanks.

For transferring LNG as a cargo IMO type B (Moss Maritime spherical tanks) and membrane tanks (Gaz Transport and Technigaz) mainly are used. New developments use IMO type A tanks and IMO type C tanks. For LNG propulsion on ship other than LNG carriers, IMO type C tank are preferable.
