Omni Tanker, in collaboration with Lockheed Martin and the University of New South Wales, has developed a system for transporting cryogenic liquid hydrogen and helium. The project has created set of tanks capable of storing and transporting liquid helium, hydrogen, oxygen, hydrogen peroxide, and hydrazine under extreme cryogenic conditions. This demonstrates the potential application of Omni Tanker's technology beyond terrestrial use, showcasing its adaptability for space-related purposes. The successful project opens new avenues for composite pressure vessel applications, bridging capabilities from road tankers to spacecraft. The project received co-investment from the Advanced Manufacturing Growth Centre.
