GTT announces that it has received an order from its partner the Korean shipyard Daewoo Shipbuilding & Marine Engineering (DSME) for the tank design of two new LNGCs1 on behalf of the Greek ship-owner Maran Gas Maritime.
As part of this order, GTT will design the tanks of the vessels which will each offer a capacity of 174,000 m3. The tanks will be fitted with the GTT NO96 GW membrane containment system, a technology developed by GTT.
Deliveries of the vessels are scheduled during second half 2024.
Philippe Berterottière, Chairman and CEO of GTT, declared: "We are pleased to pursue this partnership of excellence with DSME and Maran Gas Maritime. The GTT teams are proud and exciting to continue to support our partners in their decision to use our membrane technologies widely recognized by the LNG industry.”
