Tanks and Terminals,
Gaztransport & Technigaz (GTT) has announced the latest evolution of its Mark II Flex technology, which recently received General Approval from ABS.
This latest variant of the technology benefits from an improved insulation performance through an increase in thickness and an enhanced secondary membrane solution already in service on ethane carriers. It allows for a daily boil-off rate of 0.07% vol. (compared to the 0.085% vol. per day of the previous version), equivalent to that of Mark V.
Phillppe Berterottière, CEO of GTT, said: “We are proud to extend our range of membrane containment systems thanks to this high performance, reliable solution. Taking into account the current economic environment and the level of LNG prices, this solution allows us to meet customer expectations. It represents a complementary solution to the Mark V, a system which demonstrates a real technological advance and the future of membrane containment systems.”
