Press relase -  Bureau Veritas has issued Design Approval for the new Mark V LNG membrane containment system designed by France’s GTT. This clears the way for the system to be used in new LNG carriers and FLNGs.

 

The Mark V technology is an optimized version of GTT’s Mark III system. It is composed of double insulation with reinforced polyurethane foam. The new system also includes an innovative nickel-steel alloy corrugated secondary membrane and offers a significant improvement in the warranted daily boil off rate.
