Building a ship

🚢INSIDE THE LNG SHIPBUILDING PROCESS Building an LNG carrier is one of the most demanding engineering projects in the maritime industry. The vessel is assembled from enormous prefabricated hull blocks before specialised containment systems, insulation layers, pipelines and reliquefaction equipment are installed. Its cargo tanks must safely transport liquefied natural gas at -162°C, while limiting boil-off gas and protecting the steel hull from extreme temperatures. Every weld, membrane and insulation panel must meet exceptionally strict standards. These are not simply large ships. They are...
