LNG

July 19 (LNGJ) - French classification society Bureau Veritas awarded the Chinese ship and platform builder Wison Offshore and Marine its approval in principle for a newly-developed floating storage regasification and power generation barge. Wison and BV said they had completed the validation for the specified design of the facility with 50 megawatts of capacity. “With the interest in small-scale, LNG-to-power growing, we are developing the building blocks for a lean and integrated supply chain,” said Maarten Spilker, Senior Solutions Director of Wison. “Combining LNG storage, regasification and power generation on a single facility significantly reduces the cost of infrastructure,” he added.
