LNG Industry,

GTT (Gaztransport & Technigaz) has announced the order of a new FSRU, which will be built by Hyundai Heavy Industries (HHI).

The regasification unit is expected to be delivered in 2017 and will be built with GTT’s Mark III technology. The cargo tanks will be equipped with an optimised containment system configuration to allow all partial filling ability.

This FSRU will be the fifth one in the series at HHI and the seventh one in total owned by Höegh LNG, and equipped with GTT membrane.

The order highlights the importance of the partnership between HHI and GTT and the Höegh LNG's trust in membrane technologies.

Philippe Berterottière, Chairman and CEO of GTT said: "We are pleased to further strengthen our relations with our Korean partner HHI and with Höegh LNG while noting that our technologies are once more recognised by the LNG industry."
