When you say "horizontal", I assume you mean horizontal axis... correct ?
How do you support a "horizontal double skin tank" ? Saddles ? Or what ?
Can you give us some examples ? Drawings ??? Pictures ?
The only "double skinned" tanks I have seen have been vertical axis....

Saddles or rails can support a horizontal tank. I would assume that gr2vessels is talking something akin to a UL 142 tank which can be quite common to store petroleum products.
