French liquefied natural gas containment system specialist, Gaztransport Et Technigaz SA (GTT) has been contracted by Hyundai Heavy Industries (HHI) to design tanks for two LNG carrier newbuilds.

The engineering company said in a press release that the vessels were being built on behalf of the Greek ship-owner Dynagas.

Each vessel offering a capacity of 180,000 m3, these units will be equipped with tanks fitted with the Mark III Flex+ containment system, it said.

The vessels’ delivery is expected for the first semester of 2022, the release added.

Philippe Berterottière, Chairman and CEO of GTT, said: “This new order, first Mark III Flex+ ordered by HHI, highlights the trusting relationship GTT maintains with the shipyard. We are also pleased to once again accompany the ship-owner Dynagas.”
