GTT receives order of two new LNG carriers

GTT has received a notification for the order of two new LNG carriers. The order notification comes from a currently undisclosed Asian shipyard for the design of the LNG tanks of two new LNG carriers (LNGCs). These vessels will be built on behalf of a European shipowner. GTT will design the LNG tanks of both units, each equipped with the NO96 GW containment system proven technology developed by GTT. Their delivery is expected in 2020.

The NO96 membrane system is a cryogenic liner directly supported by the ship’s inner hull.

This liner includes two identical metallic membranes and two independent insulation layers.
