There is interest in exporting hydrogen to support global energy decarbonisation. When lowered to – 253 C°, hydrogen can be stored in its liquid form at relatively high densities but managing evaporation remains a challenge. This thesis examined strategies for managing evaporation losses of liquid hydrogen in the context of maritime transport. Efficient storage models are developed to identify pressure and temperature management strategies to support economically feasible hydrogen transportation.
