RE: horton sphere/ spherical vessel design for LPG storage
I suggest you subcontract this to a suitably experienced and qualified company and then try and learn some key items from them.
Remember - More details = better answers
Also: If you get a response it's polite to respond to it.

It appears that neither you or your client have any experience with Horton spheres or LPG storage.
Most LPG storage tanks are NOT Horton spheres ...... This should tell you something.
