LNG Carriers
Maritime transport offers clear advantages over land transport, such as the ability to move large quantities of gas over very long distances, offering greater flexibility and security of supply. It also reduces the geopolitical risks associated with land transport. This versatility makes it possible to respond more effectively to natural gas supply needs on the global market.
In order to be transported safely and in large quantities by ship, natural gas has to be liquefied. The gas is cooled to a temperature of -163°C, transforming it from a gaseous to a liquid state. This reduces its volume by more than 600 times.
With 60 years of expertise and feedback, GTT’s technologies are the benchmark for maritime transport and storage of liquefied natural gas.
GTT has developed a number of technologies to keep liquefied natural gas (LNG) at a temperature of -163°C, so that it remains liquid.
These technologies are based on a modular design that enables flexible installation on LNG carriers of all sizes. They are proving to be competitive, safe and efficient, and are constantly evolving to accelerate the decarbonisation of the maritime industry while improving the profitability of ships.
Approved by international classification societies, GTT technologies are recognised and prescribed by all the major gas companies around the world.
