PURPOSE: To effectively restrain LNG from being stratified when a plurality of LNG having different specific gravities are received in a same tank, and also to reduce the piping cost.

CONSTITUTION: A facility for receiving liquid in a low-temperature tank is provided with a level gauge 10 in a low-temperature tank A, a temperature sensor 11 for stored liquid in the low-temperature tank A, a low-temperature liquefied gas receiving pipe 12, a plurality of branch pipes 15a to 15c branched from the receiving pipe 12, and respectively connected to the low-temperature tank A, liquid receiving control valves 16a to 16c for controlling the opening and closing of the branch pipes 15a to 15c, a sampling device 13 for detecting the liquid composition of the low-temperature liquid to be received, and a control device 14 for controlling the opening and closing of the liquid receiving control valves according to the liquid information from the level gauge 10, the temperature sensor 11 and the sampling device 13.
