GTT gets class nod for three-tank LNG carrier design

GTT gets class nod for three-tank LNG carrier design

The 200,000-m3 LNG carrier design offers environmental and economic advantages, including approximately 27% reduction in voyage-based emissions intensity and a decrease in unit freight cost by up to 5.5% by 2025 and 14% by 2050 under frameworks like EU ETS and FuelEU, according to LR. 

Lloyd’s Register conducted a thorough evaluation of the cargo tank design against class standards and IGC Code requirements, ensuring the integrity of the three-tank structure under increased sloshing loads

The assessment extended to various GTT containment systems – Mark III Flex, Mark III Flex+, NO96 Super+, and GTT Next1 – confirming the design meets stringent safety and performance criteria.
