Я эксперт теоретический, так как занимаюсь трейдингом, но танкеры действительно используют как газохранилища. Хотя названные Вами технические проблемы имеют место быть.

Trading house Glencore and German utility E.ON are among those betting on a rebound in the market in the winter, leasing LNG tankers for storage purposes. Several other market players were taking the same view, chartering tankers for three to six months, a shipping source said.
The play is triggered by a market structure known as contango, in which prices for immediate delivery are cheaper than later months. Spot prices for the first half of October were about 50 cents higher than for September.
Unlike crude oil, storing LNG on tankers is unusual and generally seen as a risky bet, given the high costs and the fact that cargoes degrade over time by evaporating.
"There needs to be a correction, but how big it will be very much depends on temperatures," an industry source said.
"Storage is close to full for a lot of players, so I don't see much action in terms of winter buying and restocking," he said.
