The order includes one firm vessel and one optional vessel. The 170 000 m3 FSRU will be constructed in Ulsan, South Korea, at HHI’s shipyard on behalf of a European shipowner. The vessel is scheduled for delivery in March 2019, and will also feature a dual-fuel diesel engine motorisation.
Philippe Berterottière, Chairman and CEO of GTT, said: “GTT notes that the performance of its technologies for the FSRU market are renowned and appreciated by the key players of the offshore industry.
“HHI is a long term partner, we are both involved to make the maritime industry progress by providing safe and flexible solutions.”
