Agenda
Agenda
GTT in brief
An engineering company with more than 50 years of
experience in the design of the Membrane Cargo
Containment Systems
Independent company with
strong shareholders
A 370 people company constantly working on on-going
projects and new developments, aiming at proposing
technologies for the development of the LNG market:
NO96 and MarkIII are the leading systems for LNGCs
and offshore units
GST system for on-shore tanks
PLUTO II subsea cryogenic pipeline
Safety, Excellence, Innovation, Teamwork, Transparency
Agenda
9%Ni
Full Containment
Double
containment
Largest footprint
Easiest and fastest to built
Membrane
Full Integrity
Typical configurations
Above-ground Semi-buried
Inground
Cryogenic
cavern
Single Containment
Double Containment
Closer tank spacing
In case of failure, LNG is contained
by a bund wall
No limitation of capacity
Well adapted for harsh seismic environment
Significant feedback from LNG tanks and Huge
feedback from Membrane LNG carrier in more
severe conditions
Cost & Schedule saver

Agenda
Integrity System
Big scale configuration : One Ultra Large scale in place of
two conventional capacities
Small scale configuration : Storing optimization

9%Ni
Full Containment
GST Membrane
Full Integrity
MEMBRANE Full Integrity AND 9%Ni Full Containment types ARE EQUIVALENT
in terms of SAFETY
according to EN 1473 Std, EN 14620 Std, comparative Quantitative Risk Assessments, etc
Secondary barrier
Thermal function :
Insulating panels
IN-GROUND TANK
(19 in-service)
CRYOGENIC CAVERN
Gravity Base Structure (GBS)
1 prototype
With only 2 differently shape elements, 95% of the tanks surface can be covered.
Membrane is suitable to harsh seismic conditions (no need of complicated anchors:
Cost & construction schedule savings)
Membrane is a very flexible design: no theoretical limit to tank capacity.
