ABS approves CNOOC’s Gas-Block terminal

ABS said it has granted approval in principle for the design for the CNOOC Gas-Block (CGB) terminal.

The CGB unit functions as an offshore LNG receiving, storage, regasification and bunkering terminal comprising a concrete caisson structure with a steel roof and steel skirt.

The terminal will house horizontal LNG storage Type C tanks and additional processing equipment topside, the classification society informed in a statement.

It is expected to be installed on the seabed with a design water depth of 10 to 20 meters.

The storage volume of a single block can be varied from 5,000 cbm to 50,000 cbm, and the total storage volume can be up to 300,000 cbm when several blocks are combined, the statement added.
