GTT Secures Order from Samsung Heavy Industries (SHI) for Cryogenic Membrane Containment System of 238,700 m³ FLNG Unit

GTT announces that it has received, during the third quarter of 2025, an order from the shipyard Samsung Heavy Industries (SHI) for the tank design of a new Floating Liquefied Natural Gas (FLNG) unit, which will be deployed in the Africa region.

GTT will design the cryogenic membrane containment system for the LNG[1] storage tanks, with a total capacity of 238,700 m³. The tanks will be fitted with GTT’s Mark III technology.

This project underscores GTT’s central role in enabling major floating LNG developments in new markets and demonstrates how FLNG solutions can rapidly deliver offshore liquefaction capacity without relying on onshore infrastructure.

Philippe Berterottière, Chairman and CEO of GTT, declared: “We are proud to contribute our unique expertise to this major FLNG project, which will help harness Africa’s energy potential to support sustainable growth and energy supply. This order confirms the trust of our long-standing partner Samsung Heavy Industries and demonstrates the relevance of GTT’s technologies to support the development of efficient, reliable and safe floating LNG infrastructure.”
