HiLoad LNG, a subsidiary of Sevan Marine, and Technip, a French oilfield services provider, presented the HiLoad LNG Parallel Loading System (PLS) at the Offshore Technology Conference in Houston.

In a statement on Thursday, Sevan Marine disclosed several characteristics of the new PLS system displayed at OTC 2016. The company said that this system utilizes the HiLoad LNG unit for station keeping and Technip’s cryogenic flexible aerial pipes to transfer LNG from a FLNG unit, which can be either a Sevan Marine Cylindrical unit or ship shaped FLNG, to a fully conventional LNGC with no modifications necessary.
