Bureau Veritas: two approvals in principle with GTT

(CercleFinance.com) - GTT announces that it has received two approvals in principle from the testing, inspection and certification company Bureau Veritas, relating to the "NH3 Ready" character of Mark III membrane tanks and to the design pressure raised to "1 barg" for LNG fuel applications such as large container ships.


The first approval, which follows a test campaign, recognises that " the Mark III system, without any major design changes, is suitable for the subsequent containment of ammonia in LNG as fuel applications".

The second approval obtained from Bureau Veritas relates to the higher design pressure of “1 barg” in LNG as fuel applications. Thanks to an already existing alternative design of membrane tanks with specific dome reinforcement; "this Approval gives ship-owners more flexibility in all their operations".
