GTT is set to design the LNG tanks for two FSRUs being constructed by the Chinese shipyard Hudong-Zhonghua Shipbuilding (Group) Corp. The dual purpose vessels will be capable of operating as efficient LNG Carriers and Floating Storage and Regasification Units (FSRUs). These vessels will be built at Shanghai, China, for the owner Dynagas. Their delivery is due in 2021.
GTT will design the LNG tanks of both units, each representing a capacity of 174,000 m3. The membrane cryogenic containment system NO96 GW, with glass wool insulation, will be used for the LNG storage on board.
GTT’s Chairman and CEO, Philippe Berterottière said: “We are pleased to once again accompany the ship-owner Dynagas in its continued development in the LNG industry and to contribute to the very first FSRUs built by our Chinese partner Hudong-Zhonghua. This new order highlights the trusting relationships GTT maintains with this shipyard, which is part of the biggest shipbuilding group in China.”
