        中国船舶建造企业中远海运重工（Cosco Shipping Heavy Industry）与本国沪东中华造船集团、法国GTT公司分别签署LNG合作协议。

 

        在本周二与沪东中华签署的协议中，双方将在LNG船舶的建造和修理上加强合作。

 

        中远海运重工（以下简称CHI）的声明称，该份框架合同将进一步促进双方合作，有利于大型LNG船国内修船基地的建立。

 

        此外，CHI还与主营LNG船货舱围护的法国GTT公司续签了战略合作协议。

 

        双方于2017年就签署了战略合作协议，又于2018年签署了技术服务协议（TSA）。

 

        舟山中远海运重工已获得GTT修理认证。CHI旗下另一船厂也计划于今年获得认证。

 

        CHI在GTT的支持下，完善了其于2017年首次承接的Mark III型LNG运输船的修理项目。这在当时是中国船厂在该领域的重大突破。

 

CHI表示：“协议的续签不仅帮助了GTT和CHI双方共同面临挑战，也为客户未来的项目提供了更多的解决方案。”

Cosco Shipping Heavy Industry inks LNG cooperation deals

 

Chinese shipbuilder Cosco Shipping Heavy Industry has signed LNG cooperation agreements with compatriot Hudong-Zhonghua Shipbuilding and France’s GTT.

 

Under the deal with Hudong-Zhonghua signed on Tuesday, the two shipbuilders aim to join forces in the field of construction and repair within the liquefied natural gas industry.

 

The framework deal will boost the cooperation between the duo and contribute to the establishment of a domestic ship repair base for large LNG carriers, according to a statement by Cosco Shipping Heavy Industry (CHI).

 

In addition to this deal, CHI recently renewed a strategic cooperation pact with French LNG containment specialist GTT.

 

The two companies signed a strategic cooperation deal back in 2017 and a technical service agreement in 2018.

 

CHI, through its shipyard Cosco Zhoushan, has already been qualified by GTT as an approved repair shipyard and plans this year to qualify another yard of the group.

 

The shipbuilder with the support of GTT has upgraded its first Mark III LNG carrier in 2017 which was a breakthrough for Chinese shipyards in this field.

 

“The renewal of this agreement will not only help GTT and CHI to face the current market challenges together, but also to provide clients with more comprehensive solutions for their projects”, the shipbuilder said.
