GTT Receives Order for Chandris LNG Carrier

GTT (Gaztransport & Technigaz), a designer of membrane containment systems for the maritime transportation and storage of liquefied natural gas (LNG), has received a new order for LNG carrier (LNGC) to be built by the Korean shipbuilder Daewoo Shipbuilding & Marine Engineering (DSME).

The LNGC, to be owned and operated by Chandris, will be equipped with NO96-GW technology, which allows an optimized boil-off rate for the LNG cargo, GTT said.

The vessel’s delivery is expected to take place in 2018.
