South Korea’s Samsung Heavy Industries has received approvals in principle (AiP) for a standardized model of a multi-purpose LNG floater-offshore (MLF-O) from three classification societies: Norway’s DNV, the UK’s Lloyd’s Register (LR), and the United States’ American Bureau of Shipping (ABS).
According to SHI, the three certifications were won at the Offshore Technology Conference (OTC) in Houston, taking place this week. The South Korean player said the standard model of a deepwater floating LNG production facility will strengthen its lineup of FLNG products boasting short delivery times and cost efficiency.
