1. A method, comprising: obtaining a stand-alone liquefied gas storage tank, wherein the liquefied gas storage tank includes a membrane insulation system; anddisposing the liquefied gas storage tank onto a pre-installed foundation. 2. The method of claim 1, further comprising: transporting the liquefied gas storage tank using a heavy lift ship;transporting the liquefied gas storage tank using a land-based transportation system; andconnecting the liquefied gas storage tank to piping, electrical, and control systems. 3. The method of claim 2, wherein the pre-installed foundation is a piled foundation. 4. The method of claim 2, wherein the pre-installed foundation is a slab foundation, a gravel pad, or concrete footings. 5. The method of claim 2, further comprising: fabricating the liquefied gas storage tank in a drydock;floating the liquefied gas storage tank over a partially submerged heavy lift ship; anddeballasting the heavy lift ship to transit draft. 6. The method of claim 2, further comprising fabricating the liquefied gas storage tank on a quay and moving the liquefied gas storage tank onto a heavy ship. 7. The method of claim 2, further comprising disposing base isolation devices between the foundation and the liquefied gas storage tank to minimize earthquake loads on the liquefied gas storage tank. 8. The method of claim 2, further comprising creating a tank farm by disposing a plurality of stand-alone liquefied gas storage tanks at a liquefaction plant, regasification plant, or a peak-shaving plant. 9. The method of claim 2, further comprising establishing a berm around the liquefied gas storage tank. 10. The method of claim 3, further comprising: positioning the liquefied gas storage tank using a multi-axle transporter over piles that are included in the pre-installed foundation; andlowering a portion of the multi-axle transporter in order to place the liquefied gas storage tank onto the piles. 11. The method of claim 3, wherein the pre-installed foundation includes piles disposed in a recess, a bottom of the liquefied gas storage tank, when disposed on the piles, is above a top of the recess, and the recess forms a region for an LNG pool. 12. The method of claim 1, wherein the obtaining includes installing the membrane insulation system that includes a primary membrane, primary insulation, a secondary membrane, and secondary insulation. 13. The method of claim 1, wherein the obtaining includes installing the membrane insulation system on a liquefied gas side of an inner tank of the liquefied gas storage tank, and wherein a void space exists between the inner tank and an outer tank of the liquefied gas storage tank. 14. The method of claim 1, wherein the obtaining includes installing strengthening members in a bottom of the liquefied gas storage tank, wherein the strengthening members are disposed at positions to carry point loads from piles of the pre-installed foundation. 15. The method of claim 3, further comprising: positioning a bed of a multi-axled transporter underneath the tank, wherein the tank is disposed on piles of the pre-installed foundation; andraising the bed so that the tank is lifted off of the piles. 16. The method of claim 15, further comprising: moving the tank to a new location for reuse or for recycling. 17. The method of claim 2, wherein the liquefied gas is liquefied natural gas. 18. A liquefied gas storage tank, comprising: a double-walled tank that stores liquefied gas, the double walls including an inner tank and an outer tank; anda membrane insulation system disposed on a liquefied gas side of the inner tank,wherein the tank is a stand-alone structure. 19. The liquefied gas storage tank of claim 18, wherein a bottom of the tank includes strengthening members, wherein the strengthening members are disposed at positions to carry point loads from piles of a pre-installed foundation upon which the tank will rest. 20. The liquefied gas storage tank of claim 18, wherein the membrane insulation system includes a primary membrane, primary insulation, a secondary membrane, and secondary insulation.
