GTT announced the order of a new FSRU (Floating Storage and Regasification Unit) which will be built by the Korean shipbuilding Company Hyundai Heavy Industries (HHI). The regasification unit is expected to be delivered in 2017 and will be built with the proven Mark III technology. The cargo tanks will be equipped with an optimized 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 the Norwegian Company Höegh LNG, and equipped with GTT membrane. The order, received in November, highlights the importance of the partnership between HHI and GTT and the Höegh LNG’s trust in membrane technologies. Commenting on this latest notification, Philippe Berterottière, Chairman and CEO of GTT declared “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 recognized by the LNG industry.” Source: GTT / Image Credit: Höegh LNGIn the starting, I was frank with you propecia before and after has changed my being.

Oman Shipping Company (OSC) has taken delivery of the Adam LNG, which is described as an advanced fuel efficient LNG carrier. The 162,000 cubic metres capacity vessel was built by Hyundai Heavy Industries (HHI) in Ulsan South Korea. The newly-delivered LNG carrier will operate worldwide with 25 crew including four Omani cadets, according to OSC. OSC Acting Chief Executive Officer, Tarik Al Junaidi, said: “ The delivery of the Adam LNG, together with the ordering of 11 medium range products tankers, reflects our ambition to grow not only in Oman, and the Middle East, but also worldwide.” Mr Al Junaidi said key innovations on the Adam LNG included its propulsion system and the design of its aft hull form. “To slash harmful emissions we have deployed the latest Dual Fuel Diesel Electric (DFDE) technology,” he said. “This enables the engine to operate on the lean-burn principle which increases engine efficiency and reduces peak temperatures which cuts Nitrogen Oxide emissions. In addition the ship has been coated with a new low friction paint which reduces fuel consumption by improving the sailing efficiency of the vessel. It does this by reducing the friction resistance of the hull. Furthermore, the design of the aft body hull forms a ...

HHI announced that it held a naming ceremony for the world's largest containership

BW LPG Limited announced that it has taken delivery of BW Aries, the first of eight newly-built Very Large Gas Carriers (VLGCs) from Hyundai Heavy Industries (HHI). In a speech given at the shipnaming ceremony in Ulsan, Korea, Nicholas Gleeson, BW LPG’s CEO, spoke to the high quality of the vessel construction and oversight, and highlighted the importance of safety in the design and build processes.  “The completion of this vessel is a testament to a great many hours of exceptional teamwork”, he said.  BW Aries’ and her sister-ships’ designs incorporate modern solutions for improved safety, environmental performance, and fuel savings. Andrew Hoare, BW LPG’s Chief Commercial Officer stated, “The BW Aries is the first of the eight new buildings ordered with HHI and she joins our fleet to enhance our delivery to our customers. BW LPG is a committed industry player in the LPG sector and decisions about the addition of new vessels to the fleet are made based on a long term outlook.” BW Aries will join 19 other VLGCs in BW LPG’s fleet currently on water. The company now owns and operates a fleet of 36 vessels, comprising 20 owned VLGCs, 11 chartered-in VLGCs, five owned LGCs. ...

Hyundai Heavy Industries has awarded ABS a contract to develop subsea pipeline design and training guidelines in support of FEED  ABS has announced the award of a contract from South Korean shipyard Hyundai Heavy Industries (HHI) to develop a set of subsea pipeline design criteria and associated training materials. The criteria will include guidelines for global buckling and stability analyses supplemental to the ABS Guide for Building and Classing Subsea Pipeline Systems and applicable industry and site condition standards. As a significant number of deepwater and ultra deepwater subsea fields come online within the next decade, offshore pipeline infrastructure will need to be expanded safely to transport additional production volumes to shore. One potential hazard to designing subsea pipelines is buckling, which can compromise structural integrity due to loss of in-place stability and potential development of excessive bending. ABS will analyze this and other potential subsea pipeline design issues to support the safe and reliable development of transportation infrastructure as well as subsea processing systems. "As operations move farther offshore into deeper water and high pressure/high temperature environments, subsea pipelines must be designed in accordance with the full range of industry design standards as those standards are one of the ...

GTT (Gaztransport & Technigaz) confirms an order for two large LNGCs (Liquefied Natural Gas Carriers), which are in the third quarter 2014 order book. The two ships will be built by the Korean shipbuilder Hyundai Heavy Industries. The LNGCs are expected to be delivered between 2016 and 2017 and will be built with the innovative Mark III flex membrane technology, which allows an optimized daily boil-off rate of cargo LNG. These vessels will be owned by the Algerian shipping company Hyproc, which has been operating GTT-designed LNG carriers since 1971 and reaffirms regularly its trust in GTT membrane systems. Philippe Berterottière, Chairman and CEO of GTT commented: “HHI and Hyproc are two long-term partners. We are delighted to see that these companies have chosen, once again, membrane containment solutions for their new buildings”.

HHI introduces innovative design for maximizing cargo capacity

During SMM in Hamburg, DNV GL presented Hyundai Heavy Industries (HHI) and United Arab Shipping Company (UASC) with an Approval in Principle (AIP), recognizing the technical feasibility of the LNG fuel system design for the A14 and A18 series of container vessels. Tor Svensen, CEO of DNV GL Maritime, made the presentation to Mr. Oi Hyun Kim, CEO and COO, of HHI's Shipbuilding Division and Mr. Waleed Al Dawood, COO of United Arab Shipping Company, in the presence of His Excellency Sheikh Ali Bin Jassim Al Thani, UASC Board Member. The series of innovative 14,500 TEU (eleven vessels) and 18,800 TEU (six vessels) container ships are under construction at HHI and HSHI for UASC and classed by DNV GL. These 17 vessels are intended to be converted to globally operate using LNG as ship fuel and the AIP has been prepared as part of DNV GL's "LNG Ready" service - demonstrating that the designs will enable a cost and time efficient conversion for LNG fuel operation. As part of the LNG Ready service, DNV GL has also cooperated with UASC to prepare the business case for the LNG fuel option. The presentation of the AIP marks the culmination of an ...
