BS Pacific issues the first certificate for the use of Gaztransport & Technigaz (GTT) CS1 LNG
Containment System by Hyundai Heavy Industries (HHI) and Hyundai Samho Heavy Industries (HSHI).

The certification indicates that a mock-up model of the system was built in accordance with GTT requirements and with overall quality workmanship by the shipbuilders as observed by ABS surveyors. With this certification, HHI and HSHI are now approved for ship application of the CS1 membrane type LNG carrier containment system.

ABS is currently in the process of certifying Daewoo Shipbuilding & Marine Engineering (DSME) to the CS1 system.
