A storage tank for a cryogenic fluid including an inner tank that is configured to store the fluid and that is seated in an outer envelope, the inner tank and the outer envelope having a shared longitudinal axis, such that a thermal insulation volume surrounds the inner tank, and wherein the outer envelope surrounds the volume about the inner tank. The tank has at least one damping element made of a deformable material positioned between one end of the inner tank and the outer envelope to wedge the inner tank against the outer envelope. This enables a reliable sliding mechanical link to be formed between at least one end of the inner tank and the outer envelope of the tank, thereby increasing resistance to wear and facilitating assembly of the tank.
